About Me

I will be moving to a new and smaller house in the summer of 2024. I will probably not be able to host anyone after that, but will still be able to meet you and be your local guide in the East-Telemark, hiking partner or socialise at a café table or campfire.

CURRENT MISSION

To make a change...

In these troubled times, I offer my couch to both Russians and Ukrainians.

ABOUT ME

I always try to follow my dreams. Sometimes it ends as a nightmare! :D

Raised on a farm and lives on a farm in rural Telemark. BTW: My mail address is Notodden, but I live in Midt-Telemark, a neighbouring parish.

Worked with comics and graphic novels since my teens. Mostly as a editor, critique and publisher, but also as an artist. The last years it have mainly been centred around project management and editorial work.

I also teach UX/UI design at the University of South-East Norway, USN.

Recently been active creating a YouTube channel focusing on my outdoor life interest.
Here is a drone movie showing the surroundings where I live:

PHILOSOPHY

Art is an illusion that sometimes makes you understand yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far so good! :)

Interests

Nature, Outdoor life, Comics, Art, Movies, Literature, History, Geography... all kinds of boring stuff really...

An important part of my life is devoted to the Red Cross. At the moment I'm a member of the local search and rescue unit, and I do a lot of courses in First Aid.
