Personal
While I grew up on Skjervøy, a small island in the north of Norway. During my youth years on Skjervøy I was mostly absorbed by my interest in computers. But I also participated in the Red Cross Youth organization.
Later as I moved to Grancanaria in my late teens (17 years old) I developed an interest in diving which I unfortunately hasn’t kept with since then.
During my studies at the College of Finnmark I became a father to a great boy named Daniel. Unfortunately I don’t see him as much as I’d like as he lives with his mother up north in Burfjord with his mother who I’m no longer with.
Some years ago I developed a taste for the Cyclade Islands as my girlfriend introduced me to “island hopping”. So any major vaccations I have, I try find the time and money to go there again.
Other spare time goes to my javaprojects or books and movies.
