About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy some time off by exploring new places and meeting new people!

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy going, open-minded Norwegian guy currently studying in the Czech Republic. As I find sightseeing - especially in large groups - somewhat cringeworthy, I love exploring new cities and places either at random, or with a local. Although I wasn't first in line when they handed out a sense of direction, getting lost is part of the adventure.
I also love pubquiz, so if you happen to need a teammate, I've got plenty of rather useless knowledge.
I don't really know what to write to make me come across as a guy you'd want to have on your couch or want stay with, but overall I'm a very decent and respectful guy. Scout's honor! (Plus, I make some mean breakfast pancakes.)

PHILOSOPHY

"Every day should be a good day to die"
In my eyes, it means to live every day without regret!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to CS, but really excited to try it out - both as a guest and a host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None. (Yet!)

Interests

Cooking, food, sports, exploring new places, meeting new people, photography, learning new skills, languages, science, medicine, more food, more cooking, and traveling! I'm a versatile guy, and I tend to find something interesting about almost everything! (Except cricket. That stuff is beyond me).

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite movie: Darjeeling Ltd. I thoroughly enjoy Wes Anderson.
Favorite book: Catcher in the rye - J.D. Salinger
I love jazz, but listen to everything from Dave Matthews Band to Bob Marley!
I'm also learning to play the guitar!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got lost in a slum in Kenya, and I've seen the northern lights. Though obviously not at the same time.

Teach, Learn, Share

EVERYbody knows something I don't, and have something they can teach me. And I'm really eager to learn!
I can teach conversational Norwegian, basic Czech, and randomly enough, I'm a certified ski instructor.
