I’m from Iceland but currently live in northern Italy with my partner. When we are not out and about, exploring the mountains around, I am normally found wandering in a foreign country, sharing a lunch or adventures with locals and travellers alike.

I'm open-minded and adventurous, a sucker for big cups of coffee and a big fan of the outdoors. I love long road trips, unknown places, campfires and meaningful conversations. And photography;

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy whatever experiences and challenges life is about to bring and learn to appreciate all the little things it has to offer.

"The biggest mistake in life is being afraid of making one"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To surf couches, host travellers, join meetings and meet friends from all around!

** I don’t have any interest in meeting individuals that are solely using this platform with other intentions/dating, but very happy to meet all interested in cultural exchanges and the opportunity to make new friends from all around **

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing things I've done is when I faced my fear, the sea (read; the fish), and learned to dive in the Thailand Ocean - where I saw the most beautiful scenery.
