About me

Im very interested in understanding how other people live their lifes, e.g what are their values, religous beleifs, ect
Travel is very important to me. I engoy getting off the beaten path, hitchhing and pushing myself with hicking and rock climbing. I also love to write songs on my guitar.

Skills

My skills are very practical and diverse. I've always sort out new ways to learn and emprove my workplace/host environment.
I've never quite fit in with conventonal education. After studying engineering I sort out practical real life experience.
If there was one skill that Im the most proud of It'd be comunication. I've started a number of door knocking campaigns and read many books on team work and co-operation. I comunicate in a very open minded way, and conect with a wide rang of people.
