About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Never doing anything boring.

ABOUT ME

Björgvin Benediktsson, 23 years old currently living in Tucson, Arizona. I'm into all kinds of music, interesting pop-culture philosophies, comics, books and lots of nerdy little things. I also like cooking and am a complete nut-job when it comes to good food.

PHILOSOPHY

I never do anything that makes me unhappy or otherwise bored with life.
I acquire new interests every six months as to not get bored with life. I love people and their stories and try to get the most out of every experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Fight Club, American Psycho, Donnie Darko, Batman Begins, Requiem for a Dream, Usual Suspects, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Kevin Smith movies and so many more.
I love books. Fiction, Non-fiction, autobiographical, almost anything.
I am a music lover and listen to all sorts of good music ranging from hard rock to classical. With all the genres in between.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Until I will sky-dive there is nothing that comes close to the adrenaline rush of a bungee jump.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach sound recording and Icelandic. Also english and guitar. I would say that I am a jack of all(most) trades but a master of (n)one.
I want to learn Spanish better and any cool sport. Especially a martial art as I used to practice Tae Kwon Do and am trying to get into that again.
