  • Description

    Hello there!

    I'm an adventurous Norwegian guy with a passion for exploring the world, immersing myself in diverse cultures, and engaging in meaningful activities.

    Being a social and open-minded individual, I wholeheartedly enjoy making new friends and connections from all corners of the globe. I find great joy in connecting with people from different backgrounds and learning from their experiences.

    Boredom is not in my vocabulary! I constantly seek opportunities to stay active and engaged, whether it's through work, sports activities, or attending social events where I can interact with others.

    My interests are wide-ranging, from expressing my creativity through drawing to reading books. Staying physically fit is important to me, and I particularly enjoy swimming and occasionally practicing yoga to maintain a healthy lifestyle. I also take pleasure in studying the intricate workings of nature, from plants to insects, and how the ecosystem works. Animals hold a special place in my heart, and I'm always eager to learn more about them.

    History and archaeology fascinate me, leading me to explore various historical sites around the world. Each site holds its own unique stories, and I enjoy unearthing the past. Over the coming months, I'm taking some online courses in history. Yet, this won't affect my working times.

    In embarking on this workaway experience, my primary goal is to broaden my knowledge, acquire new skills, and embrace challenges that will shape me into a better version of myself. I'm excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and the chance to contribute my enthusiasm and skills to make a positive impact.

    Let's embark on this journey together and create unforgettable memories while making a difference along the way!

  • More details about your skills

    As an individual with a passion for creativity and a deep love for nature, I pursued a degree in landscape planning with a specialization in landscape architecture, which I have recently graduated from. With this education I acquired a diverse set of skills and knowledges within design and visualization, site analysis, ecology, botany, geology, and much more.

    Throughout my career, I have gained experience in a diverse range of fields, demonstrating my adaptability and willingness to take on new challenges. My professional journey includes working in restaurants, on a fishing boat, in airport security, as a caretaker, at a hospital and as a social worker for drug addicts. Additionally, even from a young age, I actively engaged in various tasks for family, friends, and neighbors, such as painting houses, gardening, car washing and basic carpentry.

    These experiences have equipped me with a versatile skill set, making me a proficient in handling a wide array of jobs. Moreover, I have always maintained a curious and learning-oriented mindset. If I encounter an opportunity that requires expertise beyond my current knowledge, I eagerly embrace the chance to expand my skills. I am not afraid to roll up my sleeves and work diligently, even in challenging or demanding situations.

    I am confident that my diverse background and strong work ethic make me a valuable asset to any team or project.
