About Me

"It always seems impossible, until it`s done" - Nelson Mandela

Be awesome. Be yourself. Step out of your comfort zone to allow great things to happen. The magic happens way out of your comfort zone. Why settle for average when you can do and be anything you`ve ever dreamed of.

ABOUT ME

I love traveling and experiencing different cultures. During the last few years, I've been living in India, Ghana, Japan, USA, Vietnam and Norway. I'm passionate about humanitarian work, and I've done several internships with the UN. Right now I'm working for a NGO in Oslo as a fundraising advisor working with international development projects. Oh and I love giving people high fives!

PHILOSOPHY

Do to others what you want others to do to you in life - and with that, you will go very far! I try to live by this for as much as I possibly can!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in India, I traveled from south to north, and I went to Pushkar in Rajasthan for the Camel fair in the end of November. I participated in a waterput race in front of several thousand people, and I (almost) won the whole thing. I was interviewed by the local news (and yes, I am actually on YouTube. And yes, I`ll show you). I got a trophy and a diploma. Most surreal experience ever!
