A bit about me: I live in a house with my partner from Germany. She recently accepted a job as a geologist in Geopark Sunnhordland. In my free time, I enjoy diving, playing football for Bremnes herrar 2, and strength training. During the winter, I enjoy snowboarding and randonée skiing.
Listens to? I listen to a little bit of everything except heavy metal. I particularly enjoy old hits from Queen, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, and Dire Straits. Maybe I was born in the wrong era...?
Wathes? The American version of The Office is my favorite TV series
