About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Connecting and sharing - I'm practicing to find an even deeper connection with nature and myself. I find the best way to do this is by sharing memories, laughter and life lessons with friends and strangers and at the same time learn about different cultures and places.

ABOUT ME

I have a background as an Environmental engineer but this year I've taken a year off work to be in and learn more about nature and staying different places for longer time to get to know the area and people. So far I've spend my winter in Norway cross-country skiing and my summer in the Alaskan wilderness. This fall I wish to learn more about the French Polynesian culture and people.

As a person you will find me to be a curious, adventures and very easy going person.
I love long walks in nature, playing frisbee and I carry around a camera most of the time.

PHILOSOPHY

"Connections are the foundation of life - happiness, love, friendship and peace"

"When was the last time you did something for the first time"

"Travel not to find yourself but to remember who you've been all along"
