CURRENT MISSION

Cycle more and more and playing music this summer

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty relaxed person. I can be a little shy at first but I really like to talk with interesting people. I really enjoy playing music in my band and studying music.

I play the drums mainly although I enjoy playing the guitar and making music.

I work as a barista at Kaffitár making the best coffee I can. I'm really passionate about music and coffee.

I enjoy bicycling a lot and have competed in road racing. That was fun since I've started very recently.

I'm quite a busy but I tried to relax when I can. Watching good movies with friends, listening to good music or reading a good book.

I rarely go out but usually I enjoy dancing with some good soda.

I live in a nice apartment downtown Reykjavík.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to be the best version of you.
Dont try to change other people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played percussion with a samba group at 1 am on Reykjavík culture night with a band. The street was filled with people smiling and dancing and I think it was one of the most awesome thing I've did.

Travelled around Europe with my friends. That was amazing yet difficult for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you cool bands? I dont know really. It really depends on what you like.
I can talk your ears off about coffee brewing and such.

I really dont know alot about Icelandic history, just to get that out there.

I can maybe give you a insight into the icelandic people mindset which I think is pretty funny.
