About Me

Positive, adventurous, sociable, and curious.
Always have a cup of tea ready.
We are a family with 3 children, the oldest speaks excellent English.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

AIM:
Be a friendly host for new friends from all over the world, and perhaps also catch up on some travelling.
BACKGROUND:
Had some great experiences sharing my place with visitors from India, Spain and China and more. That was through work, woofers and Servas. I always had an open home for international friends from politics and climbing.
PHILOSOPHY:
I believe in peace, and cultural exchange is a great road to peace.

Interests

Gardening
Did self sufficient organic farming for approximately 5 years, but now only I have only a small garden.
Climbing & bouldering
8a was in the past, now more like 6a-6c. I only climb when travelling - Denmark is all flat. Mostly sports, but done some trad routes too.
Kayaking
Got spare one for visitors!
Historic reenactment
Google the Medieval Center Nykøbing, special interest: medical plants, but also spinning, tanning etc.)
Amateur oil painting and classical piano.
