Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Just a coastal sailor living in Norway, bobbing around the Oslo fjord in my 31ft sailboat in my spare time. As an orthopaedic technician I can tell you right now that the technological overlap between a prostetic leg and a sailboat is surprisingly big.

I don't know if it is correlation or causation but all the great friendships in my life started with cheese.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans
