About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Working with my event organising company, moving to Seoul, Korea, in June 2017.

Go through every day with a "Why not?"-attitude, meet new people and have a lot of fun :)

ABOUT ME

24 year old Swedish/Norwegian (50/50) guy currently living in Bergen, Norway. Studying Law at the University of Bergen.

My biggest interests are traveling, Baseball and meeting new people! If I combine a few of them, I will be even happier!

PHILOSOPHY

You live life to make other peoples lives better! And by doing that, you will have a really good time too!

Also, Life did not come with an instruction manual. The only one that's gonna be evaluating your life in the end, is you. Do what makes you happy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think CS is an awesome community for meeting new people, so that's my main reason for becoming a member to this site.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Only been surfing in Korea so far, but I had two really great experiences there! Also, I have met so many nice people through Couchsurfing.

Started hosting in August and I'm loving it! When I miss traveling, hosting can at least provide me with a "light" traveling experience!

Interests

Cross Country Skiing (Yeah, that crazy Norwegian sport you do when it's -25 degrees outside)
Running
Traveling (Been doing a fair bit of traveling but I'm not done in a million years!)
Meeting new people to exchange cultures and experiences! Especially interested in Korean culture!
I also very recently learnt to like cooking! Reading a recipe and making the words into food is almost like an advanced puzzle - I like it!

Music, Movies, and Books

It all depends on my mood! Sometimes I wanna settle down with some nice classical music and the next day I'm playing Metal and busting my eardrums, it all depends :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, for sure! Going down under the surface was like entering a whole new world! When you are sitting on the bottom at the ocean, at 15 meters, and a turtle is swimming right past you - that's amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to teach foreigners Cross Country skiing if you visit during the winter :)

I'm currently learning Korean, some help would be greatly appreciated!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A good laugh, amongst other things :)

Countries I’ve Visited

China, Croatia, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Portugal, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan

Countries I’ve Lived In

Australia, Norway, South Korea, Sweden
