Professional Arctic Guide and Wilderness Guide

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling Norway to pursue my certifications to meet the requirements of becoming a skipper. Since courses are offered all over the country, I'll be traveling a lot and sleeping in my tent to make it work in this expensive place. I enjoy meeting people as well, so this gets me out of my tent to meet other people and learn about the local areas that I'll visit this month!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Guided multiday ski excursion across the Svalbard and also guided trips in Greenland and North Pole. Been smelled up close by a wolf pack in northern Minnesota wilderness. That was really probably the coolest thing that's happened to me. Smuggled a shotgun from United States to Svalbard by accident; good story behind that...
