Overview
About Me
Hi, I’m Jørgen!
Originally from Norway, I’ve hosted over 600 Couchsurfers and created unforgettable experiences around the globe. If you’re reading this, you’re already on the way to something amazing.
⸻
💫 My Mission
I want to connect with amazing people, be world-famous for creating the best Couchsurfing experiences out there – and make this earth just a bit more awesome in the process.
My core expertise? Having fun.
But not just any fun – deep, meaningful, “remember-this-forever” kind of fun.
⸻
✅ Ground Rules at My Place
You will always feel:
• Safe
• Respected
• Empowered
• …and hopefully a bit more awesome than before you arrived
This is not a place where Couchsurfers are “put to work.”
Your only job? Feel at home. Everything else is a bonus.

🎉 Hosting Highlights (600+ guests!)
• Hosted the founder of Couchsurfing
• Hosted a couple → attended their wedding 4 years later (and sang!)
• Helped create a honeymoon memory they’ll never forget with all my friends involved
• Created over 30 themed Couchsurfing events, including:
🍽 Dinner in the Dark
40 strangers meet, eat, and talk – in total darkness. A trust-building, bias-challenging experience.
🌐 Global New Year’s Eve
400 Couchsurfers brought food & drinks from their countries. One giant, cross-cultural celebration.
🍜 Food Club
Locals + travelers = shared kitchen. We learn how to cook each other’s favorite dishes.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My goal is to build a global collaborative network of positive, innovative and amazing humans who believes in the power of people. I want to be an ambassador for positivity, meet new amazing people, share stories and learn more about the world. Couchsurfing gives me perspective on life, keeps me grounded and I’m so thankful for it.
I think that the world would be a better place if more people couchsurfed. It simply opens your mind!
