I was born on a ferry on a frozen fjord sailing between steep mountains in western Norway. Being born with terrible eyesight instilled a daring and stupidly adventurous attitude towards my surroundings as I needed to get very close to see anything clearly. At the age of 6 I got my first pair of glasses. They gave me perfect vision and brought the surroundings a lot closer. I stopped running around and began observing. Observing people, faces, sunlight, shadows, waterfalls, rain, city streets and tall trees . Observing became my favorite hobby and inevitably my job.
