  • Description

    I would describe myself as an adventurous lad that enjoys meeting new people, seeing new places and acquiring new skills. New experiences and getting to know good people motivates me along with learning and seeing more of the world. Experiencing other cultures and languages is also something that I value and are some of the reasons for me wanting to travel this way. I am a social guy that likes humor and a sense of community, which makes me happy. Although I am not afraid of being or working by myself as I also enjoy my own company :)
    Other that that I enjoy action and outdoor activities along with physical exercise, and good food!

  • More details about your skills

    I grew up on a sheep farm in Lofoten, northern Norway. After finishing High School, I served in the Norwegian army (mandatory service year), and worked as a roofer for a year. Here i have learned an arsenal of different skills and earned experience in a variety of different physical labour. From my upbringing and army service i am used to harsh weather conditions both extreme cold, wet, and very warm climates. Growing up on a farm also means using a variety of different tools.

    Some examples of experience would be: everything from fencing to tending farm animals (sheep and chicken), driving a tractor, felling trees, splitting firewood, painting, a little carpeting and other general physical work. Other than that i am a peoples person, i get along with people of all ages and like to goof around with children although i am not primarily a caretaker. I can cook simple daily life meals, as well as I am used to cleaning. I have played the drums for many years and therefore enjoy music, and generally would say i am eager to learn new things!
