CURRENT MISSION

Go to school, meet new people, have fun.

ABOUT ME

I am a Norwegian girl who has been happily stuck in Denmark for the past three years, studying medicine. When I am not studying (which sometimes feels like is way too seldom), I enjoy engaging in social activities, cooking, photographing, meditating, exercising, listening to music, knitting, thinking, watching movies and dancing.

I am easily fascinated by people, and I think that the best thing in the world (and also one of the hardest things to achieve), is having a good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Let's discuss it over a cup of tea!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I think the ideas it is based on makes the world a better place, e.g. Hospitability, openness and trust, and intercultural exchange. Also, simply because it is a lot of fun and makes traveling cheaper and more accessible for many people.

Interests

People, exercise, music, movies and tv-series, cooking, photography, art, philosophy, psychology, ecology, environment, dream and sleep, religion, biology, medicine, maths, communication, words, brain stuff, science, and last but not least: figuring out how to be happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have seen the ocean.

Teach, Learn, Share

I spend quite a lot of time in the dark room, developing my own film. I would be glad to take you there and teach you the fascinating process of film developing! I would also be glad to teach you the basic technical concepts of photography at the same time.

I know how to make some damn good cinnamon buns.

And I'll teach you how to knit your own poncho!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company, delicious food and a house to clean.
