CURRENT MISSION

«It's 106 miles to Chicago. We got a full tank of gas. Half a pack of cigarettes. It's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.»

ABOUT ME

***** I am having big trouble with writing back to all your lovely requests. If you don't get an answer I assure that I read most messages, but the big amounts of requests I am not able to answer.

I am a pinguin from the northern parts of Norway where I live to do my pinguin stuff which including shuffling snow, avoiding avelanches, igloo building and sliding on the ice.

I bought a old farm house (and a barn and a general store 🙈) which I moved into in February 2020. The place is located in the middle between Svolvær and Leknes. The place is called Limstrand and contains a few houses. If you sometimes visit you are dependent on the bus. In the summer it is quite frequent, or you can travel with car. A car would make you flexible.

PHILOSOPHY

Some people say we go to heaven when we die. Why wait so long?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I been absent for a while, but as I have no plan to travel this summer I decided to return to my profile. I enjoy meeting up with people when travelling, and I am also positive taking people out for hiking. I also plan to host in my guestrooms, but it will no be frequently

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The best thing with CoachSurfing is that it makes the world smaller, and make you belive in people again.

Interests

I am a huge fan of mountain hiking. And when I moved home to Lofoten Islands in the summer 2012 I could fully get to do this interest. I usually go mountain hiking every weekend in the warm half of the year, and I love to show the mountains to other couchsurfers! :)

Besides of this I love music. I does not sing (thank God), but l am a good listener.

In my farm I try to do a little bit of self supply.

I am also interested in movies, and then the movies that are not too Hollywoodish. I attend the local Cine Club which shows movies from all overvthecworld.

I play board games. Got a full closet 😍
