    Description

    I work as a musician and sound engineer in Bergen. A few years ago I reacquired my family's house from 1876. There is still a lot of renovation to be done.
    It's located pretty much in the center of the city. Bergen is a small place and you can walk to mostly anywhere, or to the city mountains. There is a lot of music and culture going on here, and I can tell you everything about it and where to go :)

    NB: I read every request, but I might not always be able to answer everyone. If there is an opening I will contact you.
