CURRENT MISSION

Play Samba on the fiddle!

ABOUT ME

I am a norwegian with an affinity for (among other things) long-distance biking, drinking dark beer followed by dancing, climbing, playing fiddle, most green things, and talking to strangers. I am very good at making a Norwegian kind of waffle, named Svele.

I am really bad at certain things, such as driving a car, but I have some hidden talents, like waving on my ears.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been surfing in Austria and in Japan, both of which were fantastic experiences. I have not hosted yet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Meeting a total stranger in the most crowded station in Nagoya, Japan, and finding that he was a friend!

Interests

Outdoor activities; hiking, climbing and skiing. I think I would love surfing but I haven't tried it yet.I like to play the fiddle and write. I like also to drink beer and talk to people.
