Detalhes

Descrição

I am Knut, 66 years old, retired, happy, friendly and adventurous young man. I live by myself, but I am father of 4 adult childen, have 6 grand childen and a lot of hobbies. This makes me a busy man so I need some help with all my projects. I like to meet new people, have many friends and enjoy working together with others.

I lost my wife many years ago to cancer and my youngest son with Downs syndrome, Mathias, just moved into his own flat. We have a very close relationship and enjoy each others company. Having a son with spesial needs has tought me a life lesson about toleranse, patience, resepect and outsiderness. This are issues that I value and live up to.

I am engaged in history and culture and I believe in sharing and being a team player in every aspect of life.

I live in Ålesund, 3 kilometers from the city senter, on the west coast of Norway. This area is known for its beathtaking nature with its steep mountains and deep fjords. Ålesund is a Art Noveau city with beautiful architecture that attarcts tourists from all around the world.

I am a great outdoor enthusiast and enjoy fishing with good friends in my wooden boat, hunting for geese and deer and making traditional norwegian food from it.

Staying with me I look forward to include you in my everyday life, my family and my hobbies.

Paul came here to help with painting the house and gardening for three weeks. He learned quickly and took everything in his stride. We got a lot done together. He was also a great help on hunting trips, fishing trips, and camping trips. He was helpful at sea with setting nets and traps. We cooked a lot of good food together. He was also sociable … read more

My stay with Knut was my first Workaway experience and nothing less than spectacular. Knut really lives an extraordinary life and in my time with him, I was fortunate to be a part of it and have a myriad of new and exciting experiences. Knut and I instantly got along very well, and pretty much immediately after arriving I also had the chance to … read more meet his amazing family who I really felt like a part of during my time there. Knut is super active and pretty much always doing something, has a big family, circle of friends and is extraordinarily well connected in the community. With Knut, you never really know what a day will look like and plans can change quickly. He is super active and loves being outdoors. We were out on his boat almost everyday, fishing or checking the crab traps. We also did multiple amazing trips hiking and fishing in the mountains and sleeping over in cabins. We also went shooting and once the season had started I could join him for deer hunting. These activities also generate a lot of fresh meat and fish which Knut knows how to prepare in all sorts of ways, so there is always amazing food.

Work at his house involved painting, gardening or clearing out his outhouses. Generally though, there wasn’t a strict separation between work and off-time which was one of the cool things. Every day was like another adventure with new experiences. A lot of time is also spent helping out people he knows and who are in need of his many skills. And, from fixing almost anything to spontaneously building a stone wall, it always seems like he’s done it a million times. Those are also great chances to learn from him and improve your own skills.

What exactly you join him for is always completely up to you and he will make sure you are comfortable and your needs are accommodated. But, in order to get the most out of your stay with Knut you should be an active, outdoors loving, hands-on and spontaneous person who can go with the flow and be okay with not knowing what any given day is going to look like. You should also like meat and fish and trying new food.

Knut is also very smart and has gone through and done a lot in his life. More than his story being inspiring in its own right, it is great to talk to him, get his advice and reflect upon your own life. Sometimes it’s also just fun to listen to one of the many stories he can tell from his life. If you share his direct sense of humor you will also have a lot to laugh!

For anyone who these words resonate with and who wants a Norwegian adventure, I can wholeheartedly recommend a stay with Knut.

I'm lucky to now call Knut a friend and look forward to visiting him again someday.

What a fantastic experience staying with Knut. He's a real outdoor adventurer, and I went fishing and crab fishing with him. I had a really great time, and he lets you share in his everyday life—it's great for anyone who wants to immerse themselves in Norwegian traditions. Knut cooks very well, and I tried freshly hunted deer and fish. Paul, a … read more
