About Me

CURRENT MISSION

spead sincere smiles (triple s)

ABOUT ME

Well I consider myself an international person - grew up in copenhagen with a mediterranean background, i now live in london but have been working in the middle east for the last year - got an international group of close knit friends and enjoy travelling whenever the opportunity presents itself. I'm an easy going guy who likes good music, a good munch and good company. Huge on films and politcal stand up - watching Bill Maher in the office right now and cracking up - HE'S JOKES! I like to cook and will try anything new once. Looking to meet interesting and new people who are chilled out and sincere.

PHILOSOPHY

do your best and be nice, even though it doesn't really matter

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

zero experience as yet. only been on this for 1 week. but EVERYTHING i hear is totally positive.

Interests

interested in a book that will stay with me afterwards, a film with either entertaining dialogue, a captivating story or great cinematography (or all the above), a tune that prevents me from sitting down, a person that's not afriad to be p*ssed off when they're p*ssed off, interested in seeing the authentic side of any town, mingling with groups i wouldn't usually mingle with, interested in being nice (where applicable) and interested in fun
