Tromsø · Joined October 2025
Originally from Germany, but I moved to Norway in 2015 and fell in love with the country and its people. I work at Tromsø’s library (which is definitely worth a visit if you’re in town, with beautiful architecture and a great spot for coffee with a view!) and in an NGO called Grønn Framtid (Green Future). I’m passionate about creating a better tomorrow for humans, animals, and the planet, and I love sharing a little piece of beautiful Tromsø with visitors.
My Lifestyle

About
Welcome to our bright and cozy home superclose to nature (lake, trails & skiing tracks) and the city centre :) It's around 100 m above sea level next to one of the best spots in Tromsø city to see the northern lights or to enjoy cozy summer days: The lake Prestvannet! Moreover you're in a very safe and cozy neighborhood, well connected and we hope you'll love it as much as we do! Questions? We are fluent in English, German and Norwegian, contact us in whatever language is convenient for you. The space You're sharing the flat with us, Aaron and Vanessa. We have been travelling ourselves quite a lot and enjoy having travellers coming to our place! Your room: - cozy loftbed. The weight limit for it is 85 kg. If you prefer and notify us, it’s also possible to place a mattress on the floor. Just keep in mind that the room will feel more tight that way. - desk underneath - water boiler in your room Shared areas - well equipped kitchen incl dish washer - big living-room with fireplace - nice bathroom with washing machine - typical Norwegian wooden house About the location - Right next to the lake and ski trails: ideal for walking, jogging, or cross-country skiing or bonfires - Only 2 min to the nearest bus stop (Stalheim) with direct buses to the city centre (5 min) & airport (7 min) - 20 min walk to the city centre: A large part of the way is with very little cars and a view <3 Note that the city centre is downhill. - Walking & biking distance to most places on the island - during rush hours direct busses to the university/hospital - A bright, peaceful spot where you can enjoy both Tromsø’s city pulse and its closeness to nature! Guest access You’ll have access to a bright and spacious living room, a well equipped kitchen, and a cozy bathroom. We hope it feels like a home away from home! :) During your stay You’ll have complete privacy in your room, but if you’re interested, we sometimes host board game nights, might be happy to have dinner together or other small social gatherings and you’re welcome to join :) Other things to note The building is older, so you might hear a few creaks and notice some quirks. It’s part of its charm, and we hope you’ll love it as much as we do!
