Skiing
One of my biggest passions is off-piste skiing. As a Norwegian I got skis
on my feet at a very early age, and they have stuck with me all the way.
If you haven't tried to ski you have missed out on one of the greatest
activities ever made.

Pure delight
Like it says in the heading, skiing is a passion for me. Skiing gives me a feeling of freedom and self control that
few
other activities has given me. Its easy to become religious when making fresh tracks down a
steep mountain side. Discovering new places to ski is fun and exiting.
Even if its skiing down a steep coloire or powder skiing in the woods. I ski both telemark and alpine, each
a tool for it's own use.

White dream
There are many places in the world that i want to go to ski. Ski magazines really don't have
a good effect on me. Looking at pictures from different ski places awakens the adventurer in
me. There are a few places that I just have to go to ski. These are some of them:
Svalbard, Banf
and Fernie in the Canadian Rocky Mountains, Vail in the American Rocky Mountains,
Alagna,
Gresoney and Champoluc in the Italian Alps and the whole of New Zealand to name the most
important.
