About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Embrace life

ABOUT ME

I am a person who loves to make people laugh, since I enjoy laughing myself so much. That's why there's nothing too embarrassing for me to do so.
I am also mother to the bestest child in the world - I might be biased though. I've been doing this for almost four years now.

PHILOSOPHY

Every stranger is a potential friend.
And you should treat people like you mean it that way. Don't judge anyone before you got him/her to know a little, everyone has their own reasons to behave as they do. You don't want to be misjudged because you had a bad day either, do you?

No failure is as worrying as the feeling of having missed something.
And the things you regret most, are the things you have never done. Don't be afraid to cross your limits once in a while.

Spontaneousness. Independence. Fantasy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed some couches in Norway (Oslo, Tromsø, Bodø, Bergen), met nice locals in Copenhagen - I even had the pleasure of hosting two guys here at home! They were really awesome and made my mom fall in love with CS as well, hehe
