HikingDescrição
My name is Tore; I'm a bilinguist (English father & Danish mother) and raised in Denmark - although I've spent (most of) my time since 2016 abroad, because of my interest in cultures and accompanied enthusiasm for travelling. Following these interests, I also cherish getting to know people's respective worldviews and life experiences.
Moreover, I'm curious by nature and have found that my BA in Philosophy compliments this propensity well.
My main interest and motivator in life revolves around (human) consciousness, and as such the fields of 'Philosophy of Mind', Existentialism and (Cognitive) Psychology - consequently, I have an affinity for eastern philosophies (the numerous branches of Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism - as well as Sufism and Kabbalah) and their accompanied emphasis on meditation as a tool for embetterment. Accordingly, I meditate regularly and have participated in several Vipassana retreats.
An additional (and connected) interest of mine is in the field of 'Environmental Philosophy (Deep Ecology)', which my BA-thesis was based upon.
I hope that the combination of these abovementioned facts paints a picture of me as a polite and genuinely friendly guest and interlocutor, and can facilitate an environment for cozy and interesting conversations with people of all ages and cultures.

Quais são suas habilidades?
I enjoy a broad range of activities, but below is a handful of the top of my head:
I'm a social person and enjoy conversing with people of all ages, since i'm convinced that everybody has something of import to share and thus, there's always a mutual process of learning taking place in each discussion.
Consequently, I've done plenty socially based volunteering and work as receptionist, meet-up organizer and English interlocutor.
Furthermore, I'm a certified TEFL (Teach English as a Foreign Language) and have had the pleasure of gaining experience teaching English in Hanoi, Vietnam (grade 4-11) - this is, moreover, supported by the subject 'Philosophy of Education' from my BA as well as 'Socratic Dialogue (Therapy)'.
Additionally, I've 2 years of experience in the field of customer service/maintenance (1 year for private customers, and subsequently promoted to business customer maintenance).
I'm a passionate hiker and as such interested in the outdoors in general as well as the inhabitant flora and fauna - hence, I don't mind getting my hands dirty. As a result of these interests, I've been working in the field of Forest Inventory in Australia on two prolonged occasions, where I've had the enjoyment of combining hikes with plants in a work-setting.
Finally, I'm a 'foodie' and hence enjoy trying different cuisines - consequently, I likewise take pleasure in cooking (although, I most confidently cook (North)European dishes, whilst the authenticity of others cuisines might be questionable :D). And as a side-bonus; I find dish-washing therapeutic!Idade

Algo mais...
I'm not picky regarding accommodation, and would, in fact, be happy with a small piece of floor to sleep on :) Additionally, wherever it might fit the settings, I travel with my own hammock and can without problem 'set up camp' in that, to save space, if need be :) .
Furthermore, I see myself as neat&tidy and thus, I don't believe I'll make much of a perceivable impact upon any host's daily rhythm, who should be kind enough to invite me unto their premises.
