About Me

Grow up, get educated.

ABOUT ME

I am a young and curious student of the world and its inhabitans.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently unable to host anyone. (But when I get a bigger apartment in the future ...!)
But I can help you out and about the city of Oslo.
As a visitor I can be helpful with household chores and I am quite skilled chef.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading. I enjoy classics, fantasy or anything well written. Favourites include anything written by John Irving or Murakami, Anna Karenina, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Harry Potter, His Dark Materials and I am currently reading the Song of Ice and Fire-series (you know, the books behind "A Game of Thrones").

I also really enjoy films - I can watch anything - but I love more "surreal" or philosophical ones, like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Being John Malckovich and The Double Life of Veronique. I also enjoy Star Wars immensely. And anything by Tarrantino or von Trier. I also like the TV-series Twin Peaks and Broen.

My favourite music includes artist like Björk, Tori Amos, Florence and the Machine, Susanne Sundfør, Patrick Wolf, Regina Spektor, Marina and the Diamonds. Again, as with movies - I can listen to everything - somewhat depending on my mood. But I do enjoy music like Dimmu Borgir and Bring me the Horizon to Stravinsky, Gershwin, Beethoven and things like Lady Gaga etc. I am not that picky.
