I just recently moved to Amsterdam to study acting and theater, so let's discover this city together and have a good time! I love to learn, I want to widen my horizon and discover new things about the world and my place in it. I like to play music, dance, meditate, cook and tons of other good stuff :-)
Interested in Art
Interested in Bars
Fluent in Danish
Learning French
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
It's an interesting way of getting to know new people around the world while traveling. I don't care much for sight seeing, I wanna meet the people in the city, have conversations, share experiences and learn.
Music, Movies, and Books
I have a really broad taste in music from jazz, to punk and classical music. It depends on the mood. Sometimes I wanna go to a techno club and freak out, other times I wanna relax with some smooth jazz. But here are six of my favorite musicians at the moment: Connan Mockasin Father John Misty Efterklang Bob Dylan First Hate Tame Impala Books: All books by Erlend Loe are amazing Fight Club by Chuck something The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle Either Or by Søren Kierkegaard Narcissus and Goldmund by Hermann Hesse Movies: Richard Linklater's Before Trilogy are probably my three favorite movies
Teach, Learn, Share
I really wanna learn French and any cool tricks you've got. I'll happily teach you a simple magic trick and share my experiences in life.
What I Can Share With Hosts
I can offer you an open mind, good vibes, magic tricks, good conversations and whatever gifts I may find for you on my travels.
My Interests
My interests are generally creative and artistic. For the last four years, I've been acting quite a lot and widened my interest in theater. I started acting to improve my interest for magic tricks and illusions, but ended up finding theater more in my taste. I also play the guitar and piano and I like to write music and songs. I recently started a band influenced by the music of Mac Demarco, Connan Mockasin and Rex Orange County. My newest project is to write a childrens book while hitchhiking through Europe. It will be about a snail that wants to hitchhike to Ribe (a city in Denmark). Besides all this, I love socializing and meeting new people :-) Preferably combined with coffee, beer or wine!
