About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Getting there and back again

ABOUT ME

I don't like people, and I'm pretty introvert. Please don't touch me. That's why I'm here! Hehe, no kiddin'?

I'm an outgoing, social guy who loves sports, music, beer, slacklining, traveling, hanging out with friends, etc. Am active in my studying fraternity, and have been working with recruiting high school students to higher education in science and technology. I've been studying in Trondheim in Norway the last 4 years, and took the autumn 2010 off to get a taste of the backpacking life!

Now I'm currently wasting my days at the office in school, studying way to much. But hey, that doesn't mean I can't enjoy a party or four!

PHILOSOPHY

You only live once. Get the most out of your life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed through the United Arab Emirates, and are now hosting whenever I'm able to! Will definitely couchsurf more next time I'm travelling!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never had a bad couchsurfing experience. It's a great thing!

Interests

Mostly all sorts of outdoors activities: climbing, bouldering, slacklining, cliffdiving, surfing, skiing, snowboarding, snorkeling, etc. Are extremely addicted to playing and listening to music (living without a guitar for a couple of months' going to be pretty hard), likes to dance, will not reject a party invitation, and loves food!
