CURRENT MISSION

Trying to find out my next mission

ABOUT ME

I consider myself an open-mided and social guy, and I always hope to meet new people while travelling. I usually like to talk about society and the big issues when I meet travellers from other parts of the world.

PHILOSOPHY

What you learn can never be taken away from you. Learning new things, whether it's from travelling, conversation or formal education is important to me. I not very materialistic although I am not living to asceticism either, and particulary I am fond of good food and drink.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ragnhild and I travelled Norway-Japan-Norway without flying in 2009.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a little about many things, but I'm not an expert on anything.

My education is in political science. Among other things I've done is making student radio for some years, organizing larp roleplaying and analyzing risk and statistics.

I've been working for some years in different non-profit organizations in Norway and know a bit about "organization stuff" - from organizing conferences via political lobbying to accounts and finances.
