CURRENT MISSION

Inspire and be inspired!

ABOUT ME

Hey you!
I'm Katrine - a danish girl with a taste for travelling, psychology, music, other people and all the beautiful things in this world!
I am very positive and friendly person.
I study Nordic language and literature and Psychology at Aarhus University. Besides this I work as a teacher and a singer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only couchsurfed twice with a friend in australia, which she arranged. This was some of my best experiences on my entire trip; a whole new inspiring world of hospitality and friendliness opened to me and I am certain that I want to try this again.

Interests

I am very interested in psychology and I love music - I play a little and sing a lot ;)
I like to go out for drinks and dancing, but don't expect all-night techno parties and excessive drinking.
I like to talk and get to know new people - not small talk, but really talk about important things - like for instance what drives you and gives your life a purpose. Likewise I am very interested in different ways of living and in culture differences.
I love to challenge myself and to experience new things: countries and people as well as developing new sides of myself!

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach Social Psychology and can tell you about exciting experiments and the psychology that lies behind. For instance I have done a lot of research in the following topics; psychology in advertisments, nudging, groups and culture differences, memory, the brain, placebo, learning, criminality, intelligence, personality and identity.
I'm always up for sharing and starting an interesting debate.
