This is ME

Who am I ? What do I like to do?

I'm 37 years old and living in Elverum, Norway. Elverum is a two hours drive from Oslo, in the eastern part of Norway, not long from the Swedish border. I'm a computer engineer in one of IBM's Norway offices located in Hamar, 30 minutes drive from Elverum.

My hobbies are Harley Davidson MC, Stamp collecting, Fishing and Fly tying. I have several other also, but their small.

In the winter time I work on my Stamp collection and tie Flies. I like skiing, both cross country and down hill. I'm living one hours drive from Trysil, one of the largest and finest alpine center in Norway. I have been a fly tier since I was 8 years, and tie mostly flies for Grayling and Trout. I collect Norwegian stamps, Miniature Sheets from World Wide (no cto's) any thematic / Topics and Topics Fish, all mint never hinged. I have nearly a complete collection of used Norwegian stamps, and a lot of mint. I trade with people around the World.

In the summer time I fish a lot in the river Glomma, witch is Norway's largest and longest river. Trysil is also a great place in summer. You can fish in the "Trysil river", and several other rivers and some lakes in the mountains, with good catch. We catch Grayling and Trout and sometimes a pike or two. My record for grayling is 4 pound, trout nearly 6 pound and for pike 21 pound. Graling and Trout was both taken on my home made flies. In Trysil they also offers Bear, Wolf, Mouse and Fishing safari. I have tried Salmon fishing in the western country, but without any luck. The catch of wild salmon has gone down a lot the latest 10 years, and it's expensive to.

I like to travel and each year my family is going to Greece or the island's around Greece. This summer our trip was to Kalymnos, an island east of Greece main land, near Turkey. We travel a lot in Norway also, and have a small week-end cottage by the lake Femund. This is a very nice place, where You can fish, walking long trips or just take a picnic. A short walk brings you straight in the wilderness, where people seldom or never has been. I think the autumn is best, when nature is in it's most colour full way.

I hope You have learn something about me and wath I'm fond of doing.
