Description
I love to travel and meet new people from different countries and backgrounds. My goal is to experience new cultures in a genuine and if possible, off the beaten track way!

I have plenty of interests including competitive soccer/volleyball, surfing, snowboarding, hiking, playing contrabass and guitar, reading (especially sci-fi and fantasy) and pushing myself out of my comfort zone. I'm always down to try something completely new and unknown to me!

I spent a month here with Magdalena, Tor-Henrik and the wonderful kids. I had an amazing time and the countryside is absolutely amazing for hikes and natural living. The accommodation was very cosy and the work with the dogs was quite fun and enjoyable. They are all very sweet! I plan to go back to visit and would absolutely recommend the workaway!

I had an amazing time with Sigurd at his place in Møn. His house and land are very peaceful and the company of Sigurd, Bee, and the other workaways was some of the best I could hope for. I'd love to go back if I can find the time!
