  Beschreibung

  Norwegian countryside lifestyle with fishing and freediving, for our own consumption and leisure.
  
  My name is Adrian.
  
  As a kid, my father taught me how to be creative and repair things in his garage.
  
  My profession is arborist, working with trees. In my teens, I worked as a freediving instructor.
  
  I live on a homestead near my favorite diving spot, a strong tidal current.
  
  By welcoming you, we can exchange knowledge, cultures and language - making our lives richer!
