I just moved to Jyväskylä to live with my partner, so I'm just about to start a completely new everyday life in a new country. Home in Norway I worked at the intensive ward as a nurse, and now I'm trying to find other ways to activate myself till my language skills in Finnish is as good as I can work as a nurse again. I love hiking in the mountains (as almost every other Norwegian) and I'm trying to explore the forests here as much as I can, and by time hopefully I'll get the same love for this landscape.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Traveling has been a big part of my life for the last ten years and couchsurfing is a great way to meet new people either while I'm traveling myself or meeting new people in my hometown. I love the concept of crashing at someone else's couch or bed for a night to share each others life experience, and not at least sharing the goods we have to other's for free. I have hosted a couple of times in the past, but the best experience I had through couchsurfing were a meeting with a group of locals and travelers on Athens over some beers. At the time I'm unfortunately not able to host anyone, but I'm more than interested to meet up for a tea, beer or a walk!
