ABOUT ME

i never know how to write a description like this, and this is probably the eleventh time i change it because i never get satisfied, regretting my poor attempts of humour and way of formulation... wohoohoo!

sometimes i get hit by happiness so hard i can feel it pressing in my throat
it can be when i go for a walk, or experiencing live music, or when i sing in choire
to be part of a big group, feeling united
but sometimes i am happiest with myself, we are not afraid of beiing alone together
- it makes me happy that i can be happy for no special reason!

after three years of traveling and working, i finally started studying last autumn; "outdoor life, culture and nature guidance" at the university college of telemark. now i have started my bachelor studies in folk arts with wood work.

i love trying new exotic fruits! my latest discovery is sweet tamarind; to be recommended!

i like winter more than summer, snow more than rain, and night sky more than sunshine
(but i like summer, rain and sunshine too)

i wish to someday have a home with a yellow kitchen and a toilet room painted like a piece of art!

PHILOSOPHY

life is made as I stumble

i try to treat all beiings with respect, and act kindly to myself and others
