Hello to all of the wonderful women out there! My name is Joanna. I come from Poland, but I live, study and work in northern Norway - currently in Narvik, but will move to Tromsø in a couple of months. I study norwegian language. I have a degree in political science and worked testing video games for a while. I've travelled all over Europe including Albania, Switzerland, Greece, Italy or France. I also hiked a lot in polish and slovakian mountain ranges. I adore meeting new people and I'm a talkative and curious person. I have a lot of stories and observations to share. I love hiking, being out in nature, video games, alternative music and good restaurants. I love to travel and can find something fascinating in every place. I live in student housing where I can host one person at a time for a short amount of time.

About me
I am currently 43 years old. I'm a cis-woman, and I use she/her pronouns. I identify as bisexual and queer. I'm from the north of Norway, but I chose to live somewhere with a better climate, a bit more cultural options, and one of the main reasons, easier to travel. My health had other plans, though. I got sick around 6 years ago. Today, I have an ME/CFS diagnosis and a disability pension. My capacity is low, and I haven't been able to travel much the last few years. I would love to host other women who are travelling, though. I think it's a wonderful way of getting to know interesting people. ☺️ I used to host couch surfers when I still lived up north. And I enjoyed that a lot. I don't have a car, so I can't help with transportation, unfortunately. I am an archaeologist by education, fairly interested in history. I always try to see some ruins when I travel. I like art, but I'm not particularly knowledgeable in that area. I LOVE good food, and I like to cook. I enjoy wine on occasions, but I don't go out drinking any longer. I was a part of the salsa-community, but I had to give up dancing because of my illness. My interests are diverse, from hikes, foraging, drum circles, to going to concerts, dance performances, and theatre. And just chilling, having interesting conversations. My apartment is green, gold and orange, (check tiktok) I embrace a maximising, dopamin, whitcy style. 🤣 I am leaning towards the alternative and whitcy scene. Not comfortable and knowledgeable enough to call myself a witch. More of a forager. I am a part of the local BDSM scene and a femdom community. Also, Juicebox, that's an Oslo based wlw community. (Higly recommend) I hope to meet you ☺️

Is Norway worth visiting?

Mandal, Family travel
Since we stayed with my father who lived there i can't say much about the housing/hotels. The beaches are very beautiful and there is one for every need(one with a water playground for kids, one with some volleyball nets etc.). There is also a Discgolf place with several holes that is very entertaining. If you got kids and like hinking I do recommend going to the town hall and get a map for a treasure hunt! You basically go hiking all around the city searching for letters to complete it and receive a small price in the end. Not in mandal directly but there is a cool place called Vildgarden were you can meet, pet and feet some moose (extremely cool)

I actually got stuck there for two days as I was trying to fly home. But I didn’t mind because I got to explore Oslo. I ended up sleeping at the airport and exploring the city during the day. The bus system was easy, the town was clean, and it was easy to communicate in English. I didn’t go out at night, so I’m not sure how safe the nightlife is.
