This first bit with all the smiley suns is more for guests than host since I host more than I surf. I do really enjoy surfing to though, so hope I will be hosted by you some day 🙂

🌞
I love couchsurfing, but I only host people who read my profil
So if you want to stay with me you have to include the "secret" codeword word. It's clown 🤡 (totally random) somewhere in your request
🌞
I know all to well how time consuming finding a host can be though and my profile have somehow gotten a bit long 😂. I'm not gonna demand you read every bit of my profile, but at least read this first part, and write a personal request
🌞
Please don't send requests more than a month in advance. I will most likely decline it. I accept up to a month, but 2 weeks or less is ideal for me
I understand that's not convenient for many of you and you like to plan ahead. But I'm not a planer myself and would like to give a better chance to other surfers who are like me. Sorry about that
Also, couchsurfing isn't like a hotel and shouldn't be booked far in advance, in my opinion 😉
🌞
Thought I really enjoy hosting and meeting people I can't do it all the time, it gets a bit to much for me. I host maybe 1 to 3 times a month. That way I have more time and energy for my guest🙂
🌞
I block off dates in the hosting calendar when I either have plans or don't want to host right then. My calendar is usually up do date. If you can't send request because dates are blocked it won't help sending messages, sorry
🌞
And one for the men.
I don't mind hosting men, I've hosted (and stayed with) a lot of great men. I do not host men who doesn't have references though. Preferably 5-10, but might make exceptions for a good request and profile. Nor do I host men who only stay with women, very suspicious😂

All this might make me sound really strict, I promise I'm not so strict in real life 😂

As I said, I love couchsurfing (it used to be better though) Been using in since 2009 and I've met so many amazing people, as a host, as a guest or just meeting up with people. It has really had a impact on my life and how I travel. Seeing a place from a local perspective is an important part of travelling for me, couchsurfing gives me that opportunity.
And when I'm not travelling I can invite the world home to me 🙂

My profile used to say I love travelling no matter if it was to a hot or cold place. That is not true anymore, I've developed a hature for winter 😂. I might still travel to cold places, but I'm definitely more of a summer girl
Not very Norwegian of me I know 😂I'm not outdoorsy or fit either. I'm happy to walk around a city all day, but I probably won't join you for a hike

Nor am particularly in to partying either. (I'm so boring😂) Love beer and pubs, but hate clubs, unless it's a rock club 😉. I have been known to go dancing all night when travelling in Latin America, but it's more likely I have a beer (or 8) and just hang out some place it's possible to talk

PHILOSOPHY

those who can enjoy the small things in life have lots to be happy about

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I both surf and host

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

For the most part I only have good experiences using couchsurfing, both wile hosting and surfing. Always met great people :). Never had any bad experience, just a few interesting ones. They make for good stories later 😉

I do feel some people just use CS for a free bed these days. Many of the request I get haven't even read my profile. But there is still a lot of amazing people to be found here to though, you just have to look a little harder than before to find them🤣🤫

Interests

Traveling, football,music,books, history, movies,beer, card/board games

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: action, thriller sci fi, comedy, fantasy

Music: My tast in music is a bit random and not up to date. A little on the heavy side. My Spotify is one moment Manowar, then next Pink before some Avenged Sevenfold. And then suddenly Celine Dion

Books: I like all kind of book with a map in it, whether it's a map of an elaborate fantasy world of the real world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a lot of amazing and random stories from "breaking" in to a Romanian cemetery, to the crazy scissor man on a greyhound bus, to being at the first Hobbit movie premier, to crossing the Belize - Mexico border sort of illegally or living and working on weather station in the Arctic for 6 months with only 9 people, and 11 polar bears

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a my favorite card game gin and rumy, I'll be very happy if you wanna play that.
And I'm always in search for someone who knows the card game Canasta. A surfer though it to me, but I can't remember how to play it 😂

Yo hablo un poco Español y quiero practicar mas

I'm not very good with technology. I have a mess of TV/Internet connection wiers, maybe you can teach me how to get rid of all the wiers 😂

Share travel stories or maybe just random facts. Random facts is fun. Did you know that in Alaska you are not allowed to throw a moos out of a plane when it's in the air?

What I Can Share with Hosts

I usaualy prefer wandering around exploring on my own during the day,but like to spend time with my host during the evening,have a few beers (or wine) get to know them.
I cook for a living, don't really do that much when I'm travelling. Also Norwegian food is boring 😂 so I probably won't cook for my host. I love trying local food though, so will very happily try my host's specially or invite them out for dinner. Don't worry, I'm not picky or critical, so you don't have to be scared of cooking for me😂
