About Me

Hi!
I am a happy, open-minded engineer working now in the Marine industry 😊😊 living in Norway.

I have found out that travelling inside myself is as much fascinating as travel countries and continents. Or sometimes even more, therefore I cherish the silence and calmness shared or alone.

Free spirit, contesting any 'truth' or 'lie'.
Nothing what it looks like, is, so I search for the real nature of things.

I use several languages at work so gladly we can speak some different ones if you wish.

If you wish to host me, please have sleeping arrangements for me, in a separate bed/couch/mattress. It is embarrassing to explain that I am not interested in sharing the same bed with the host..

Some time ago I read a book by Vadim Zealand 'Transurfing'. From that moment, I live my life to be in the eye of the cyclone, in calmness and silence, meaning that I avoid being involved in the pendulum of this world.
Challenging, but fulfilling.

My cuisine is mostly vegetarian, excluding milk products, sometimes I use meat as well.
‘Food is not just calories, it is information. It talks to your DNA and tells it what to do. The most powerful tool to change your health environment and the entire world is your fork.’ Dr.Hayman
The maxim of Dr.Hayman becomes my alimentary motto, so if it happens for you to be my host, it might be an important piece of information that I am not a fan of fast food. If you are considering bringing me some sweets or alcohol as my guest, then please refrain ;).
non-smoker, no-alcohol, no-drug user.

What goes around comes around, some call it karma, but for an engineer, this is just cause-effect law. I bless whatever comes my way.

People come to life for a reason, for a season, or for a lifetime. The acceptance and patience to admit this lesson gave me peace of mind in life, sometimes painful but fulfilling.

That is why I enjoy CS and meetings as there is always A reason for the encounter, so if you wish to offer me to be my host or you just want to hang out please write a keyword: a reason.
In this way, I would know that you have read my profile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Exchanging ideas and thoughts incites creativity and new ideas, and I love that. It is also a cultural experience, to meet, talk, laugh, and find common ground with others. Live with the flow, and the flow is life.

Music, Movies, and Books

I stopped listening to music commercially produced, prefer now live instrumental one... As a lifelong opera fan though, I come back sometimes to my fav operas such as Carmina Burana, Madame Butterfly.

I do not watch movies anymore (no streaming platforms or TV), however there are some significant ones that I watch again from time to time: 'They live' or 'Girl with a pearl earring'

Currently I moved from reading books into journaling. Maybe I will publish something one day, who knows...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Participation in Unleash Power Within workshop with Tony Robbins, Newark 2017
Transiberian train trip
Car trip of 14 days only of nearly 6k km through Norway, from south all the way to Nordkapp and back through Finland and Sweden.
Moving around Europe during pandemic restrictions.
I lived on the boat full time in Oslo

Teach, Learn, Share

Depending on the flow between us I can teach you whatever comes and I know. It can be from a language that I know through some life advice or maybe there are some skills that I can share.

Would love to learn some of your experiences that you wish to share.

Please share kindness with me, my promise is to do the same.

Whoever I have visited so far, I offer to cook a nutritious meal. We can cook it together if you like and have fun during this activity.

It is ok for me as well if you do not wish me cooking for any reason.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fantastic stories!
Shared silence, laugh, my knowledge on any subject that I know.
We can talk in different languages.
I may cook something for dinner or breakfast.
