About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I started traveling backpacker style 2013, and then i went to Thailand, phillipines, Vietnam, Cambodia and Nepal over a four month period. This Journey awekened a desire within me to se the world and meet interesting people. I have rented my apartment in Stockholm sinse march 2014 so sinse then i have been on traveling foot. I am a wery fortunate electrician within the Norwegian oil and gas industy, witch gives me further oportunity to travel. I went to India in November 2013 and came back there in march 2014 and i am in love with the country, some of the things that makes me feel so strongly for India is that im never bored there, and no other place have given me so much personal development. As a fellow traveller said " India teaches you everything you need to know about life"- (david miller-canada) and i do subscribe to that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I dont have to much experience from couchsurfing yet but i have met so many fellow travellers doing it and i have yet to leave my comfort zone and open my home for somebody and stay with someone as well. This is truly a mecca for for open minded people following their heart, and im wery happy to be part of such a community <3

Music, Movies, and Books

Well recently i Finished Hermann Hesses Siddhartha and it made an impact on my conciseness for the better. But to it ill add some religious texts as Bible, Quran, The Vedas, Power of Now and authors like Peter Englund, Hermann Melville, Carlos Castaneda, Katherine Boo, Frans G Bengtsson, Leif GW Person, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, William Dalrymple, Bill Bryson and last and especially i want to mention Terrence McKenna whom has made a BIG impact on my way of perceiving the world.

SouthParks worth watching and Hitchcock, Kubrick, Ingmar Bergman and Tarantino i follow closely.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

10 day Vipassana meditation in Dharamkot Dharmsala is the best thing i have given myself ever!
