About Me

CURRENT MISSION

travel, working, reading, learning, and having fun!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Iqaluit, Nunavut (Arctic Canada), and in Scandinavia (Faroe Islands and Denmark) where I recently spent a decade working and getting my education.

I'm a fun, happy, laid-back and super positive dude with tattoos and interesting stories.
I love travelling, meeting new people and experiencing new places. I'm very polite and kind.
I'm really into self-development, holistic and mental health, learning new skills, and teaching them to others.

By trade, I'm a designer, photographer, music producer and personal trainer.
