I'm finding these texts to be incredibly difficult to write, but I will try. I'm from a small town in the north of Norway called Kautokeino, studied in the south of Norway, moved to Finland for work, moved back up north for work and then moved to Finland again. In other words, I can't sit tight in one place for longer than a year.

All kiddings aside, I'm a happy Norwegian trying to figure out the world. I consider myself a nerd with a capital N, having studied music and worked in a bookstore, and also engaged in a video game or three. I'm a huge language nerd, and my goal is to speak five languages fluently. I also consider myself outdoors-y; I like to hike and camp and I like snow and cold. Winter is my favorite season.

I don't consider myself a party-goer, although I can enjoy a good party and a good club. I like the taste of wine and beer, especially paired with chocolate. I have a sweet tooth that just won't leave me alone. I don't smoke neither cigarettes or weed.

Currently I'm working as an author and a musician. I'm working on a music textbook for kids from first to fourth grade.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I want to meet new and interesting people and get to know people out there! Too many times I travel through a city without even meeting and talking to a local. I love to meet new people and I love to talk with them. I guess that's what brought me here. ;)
