I live and work together with Elise and we are enjoying an exciting life travelling around the world with a based in Oslo. We are an open couple that love meeting new people and run a publishing house together where we publish books and blogs about cultural differences. I write and Elise illustrates.

I am the author and of "The Social Guidebook to Norway" a Norwegian book helping foreigners to better understand the Norwegian culture: www.thesocialguidebook.no.

If you are interested about cultural differences and the Norwegian culture, you may want to watch one of the TEDx I gave. It will also give you a better idea of what I work with: TEDx: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhA9eypocE0

I would say that I am citizen of the world. I left Canada aged 21. I studied and lived in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, France and Germany before settling in Norway.

I love sharing views, discover how people live in the remote corners of the world, learn new languages, new ways to tackle problems, to live in a sustainable way close to the environment, to breath clean air, to drink clear water.

Smiling, curious, perseverant; if I believe in something I will put a lot of energy into it.

I am looking forward to welcoming interesting travelers with Elise, a wonderful 26 years old Norwegian girl. Elise and I work, live and evolve together. We travel a lot together and love sharing experiences with new people. Solo travelers are most welcomed.
