I am from a farm on the west coast of Norway. I grew up running in the mountains, and swimming in the sea (and gaming the Sims). (Insta: @gjedremanna)

I have just started my PhD position in Social Sciences for Fire Disaster Prevention. Where I am collaborating with Kringsjås Venner to create a space for learning and developing activities that foster biodiversity and fire safety.

On the side, I am collecting stories for compassion at footloosewithroots.com (insta: @footloosewithroots)
I have recently finished my masters on Women Empowerment and Renewable Energy in Tonga and in Jordan. Of which was a mind-blowing and beautiful experience!
What keeps me going is learning and traveling. As a traveler, I enjoy spending time learning about the culture and the environment that surrounds me.
I love hanging out with curious and warm people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One thing I will do over and over again: Embracing the moments of beautiful nature and friendships.
I love sitting on a mountain top listening to the world.
I also hitchhiked California from Big Bear to Eureka (120 miles).
