About Me

I value a good conversation. It can be philosophical, wacky, serious or about personal issues or cultural differences. We are communicative species - that is our greatest asset. Let's put it to good use!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all kinds of music on regular basis, also read a lot and enjoy a good cinema. It's hard to pick one genre of my preference, but I can say I love almost anything Iceland produces musically. Björk is my biggest idol - her endless energy and creativity just amaze me.
With books I'm also very omnivorous - but I do tend to enjoy Japanese authors the best. I've been collecting translated japanese novels from an early age. I'm a book store owner's son, so I value books a lot and it saddens me to see that the age we are living in lot of people don't read anymore or consider it important. For me, it's one of the best things in life. A good book can teach and grow you in countless of different ways.
