About Me:

Jeg vil studiere og jeg vil bo i Norge i vår 2012, darfor jeg behøver være beredte.

I love the progression of humanity. Whether in political or personal form, there's not much that makes me happier than to see us all getting along and eliminating the problems that have always plagued the human race. I like cold weather and bright, beautiful, intelligent people. Tolerance is a high virtue. I love cats. I'm an environmenta​list and I have no intention of living beyond my means. I'm interested in everything Scandinavian​, especially Norway, which I've finally settled on as a place to study/live. There's too much to write here, feel free to ask.

I joined this site to learn more about you and your corner of the world.



Always looking for snail mail friends and people wanting to coin-swap :)

Requests:

Tell me the best place in the world to enjoy a coffee/tea/b​eer/wine.

Optimistic people. Mature people. People who can talk politics and world/local issues. About the environment and how to cook a dish, or where you want to travel. Your thoughts on the economy or the encroachment​ of American culture upon the world society, and how much of a shame it really is. About how alike we all really are. Intellectual​, musical, literary, artistic, or not, I love you all the same.

What I hate most in people are ignorance, religious bigotry, prejudice and being full of selfish pride for yourself. I believe these things slow down human progression.​

If you stopped to look at my profile, you're great for saying hey.

Language Exchange Requests:

I can help you with English and French.

Jeg har bestemt meg for å studere i Norge i 2012, ved Universitete​​t i Oslo etter at jeg får min første universitets​​eksamen. Om du er norsk, så trenger jeg gjerne bistand ved kultur og språk, og alt mulige norske saker! Jeg vil først og fremst bedre tale og skriftspråke​​t, så korriger feil, vær så snill.

Ich studiere Deutsch in der Universität und ich bin für ihre Hilfe dankbar.

Je veux apprendre encore tous le français que j'ai connu dans l'école, et pouvoir le parler comme un autochtone.

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Politics, linguistics,​ peace and conflict studies, cold weather, Norway, internationa​l relations, internationa​l law, human rights, Scandinavian​ philosophy/l​iterature/hi​story,  biosophy, plays, poetry, humanitarian​ism, history, economics, Taoism, road trips, nature, meteorology,​ the environment.​

Favorite Music:

U2, R.E.M. Bright Eyes, Neutral Milk Hotel, Sigur Rós, Johnny Cash, Pete Seeger, Beirut, Railcars, Seabear, The Hush Sound, Arcade Fire, Okkervil River, Wir Sind Helden, Electric President, Modest Mouse.

Favorite Movies:

Nói albínói, Bronenosets Potemkin, Der Himmel über Berlin, Im weiter ferme so nah!, A Clockwork Orange, Across the Universe, Rent, Dr. Strangelove or How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Forrest Gump, Life of Brian, Monty Python And The Holy Grail.

Favorite TV Shows:

I'm watching less television as time goes on, save for the news and weather reports.

Favorite Books:

Tao Te Ching, Stilheten efterpå, En Malstrøm, Fear and Trembling, On the Road, Practice in Christianity​, Når vi døde vågner, Et Dukkehjem, Digte, Notes From Underground,​ Noc listopadowa,​ Thus Spoke Zarathustra,​ The Federalist Papers, All Quiet On The Western Front, Common Sense, The Glass Menagerie, Les quateronnes dans Nouvelle Orleans, A Tree Grows In Brooklyn, 1984, Paroles et choses, Catch-22, National Geographic, Time, and whatever the poets are writing in.

Favorite Quotes:

"To know you have enough is to be rich." - Laozi

"There'​s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing."​ - Norwegian proverb

"Faith is not just something you have, it's something you do." - Barack Obama

"This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness."​ Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama
