About Me

Hey! I'm Oliver, or Ollie, whichever you prefer.

I'm a originally from Germany but I have now lived over 15 years in Denmark and consider myself more or less Danish. I enjoy cooking, beer, music, programming, travelling, hiking and doing artsy projects and DYI. I am very interested in psychology and self improvement. Trying to re-invent myself a little, find new exciting hobbies and passions in my life.

I am currently living in Denmark. But I am looking for a job in Bergen (Norway) since I fell in love with the country over the past few years.

I am told that I am a nice person and that I am funny. Personally I know that I love meeting new people and hearing / sharing stories. I also like cooking a lot, I went vegan last year and now am trying out interesting new recipes and I enjoy the challenge of making food since its a bit more difficult than when I could just throw some bacon on the pan :p

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING:

By making jokes, laughing, sharing experiences, have meaningful discussions on topics such as ethics, philosophy and life in general.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE:

I found some cool people after I spontaneously booked 2 days before New Year to get to Sydney.
Was a wonderful experience, check out the picture of me haha!
And I was saved from being homeless for two weeks. Forever grateful !

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some Programming I guess?
Or German, English and Danish maybe?
I love cooking, but I have limited myself quite a bit last year when I became vegan, I hope you are OK with that!

Teach me a new Language! Or how to Dance! Or a new perspective on something I haven't considered!
