Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To promote love and respect in the world.
ABOUT ME
I am a warm and relaxed person, and I divide my time between work, hobbies, my amazing wife and family/friends. I have studied psychology, and I now work as a clinical psychologist, which is my dream job. I find great meaning in helping people, who need support too find their way in life again. In my spare time I like to spend time with family and friends, reading and watching movies and to paint and working out. I am also a member of the danish Humanist Society and I love discussing secular humanism, philosophy and the meaning of life.
My wife and I live in a small house 2 km from the amazing beach of Grønhøj and 5 km from the lovely little city of Løkken. We have a cuddly housecat with one blue and one yellow eye. If you want to sleep on our couch, you would of course need permission from our cat as well - she will accept bribes in the form of tuna ;)
PHILOSOPHY
I like the simple and beautiful filosophy expressed in litterature such as by William Blake and Antoine Saint-Exúpery. "To see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wild flower. To hold infinity within the palm of your hand and eternity in an hour." (Blake) But I am about more than just carpe diem. I am trying to explore the things that scare me and widen my horisont that way. Life throws many challenges our way and it my belief that we grow as people when we dare to "turn and face the strange changes" (Bowie).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have been interrailing a few times and have met wonderful people on these magical trips.
