More details about your skills
My family owns a stable and I've been horse riding since I was six. Beacause of the stable I'm used to being responsible for the feeding, mucking, cleaning, riding and general care of the horses, and I absolutely love trail rides in the outdoors.
I'm used to a lot of animal care with mainly horses and dogs, but also familiar with care of goats and chickens.
I've been doing theatre and acting since I was seven years old, so you could say that is a strong interest of mine. And my high school programme was focused on music, dance and drama as well as general studies.
Lastly I've been very active in Norways biggest enviromental organisation for youth since I was 14. The last year I have been working full time in this organization, travelling a lot around the north of Norway and arranging seminars and summer camps. I've worked on a lot of climate change and enviromental damage issues, and it is a big passion of mine.
Along with the stable my family owns some farming land, so I've worked with farming and the renovation of stables, barns and fencing for the animals. So I have some general expirence in those fields as well.
I've had summer jobs within forestry, thinning forests, planting and maintaining the populations.
