About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy and preserve nature

ABOUT ME

I like to travel around, meet new people and enjoy the beauty of nature (above and under sea level). I see myself as an organism among organisms, which means that I try to minimise my impact on the environment while travelling around and in my every day life.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat other people as you want to be treated yourself.

Iceland, rough untouched nature as it is meant to be.
