Travelling
Description
Hello!
My name is Magne. I am 23 years old and live in Norway. I love learning new things and acquiring new experiences. I believe travel is about the people you meet along the way more than it is about the destination. I have always loved going on adventures, but now i will for the first time travel on my own for an extended time to asia.
The reason for this trip is because i want to learn more about the eastern spiritual traditions such as Hinduism and Buddhism. In these traditions there is the idea of selfless service, which is why i am here on workaway, i want to be able to give back to the places i visit by volunteering and making the world a better place.
I am also very interested experiencing new cultures and talk with new people, i can be a bit shy at first, but in general i like to talk with people and hear about their interests, passions, and opinions.Interests
