Notes on me

I am a male, born in 1984, and I live in Copenhagen, Denmark. At the moment I work for farvandsvæsenet, and in my spare time I write and play music (singing and drums), go diving, and spend as much time with my friends as I can. I enjoy travelling, and I do so whenever I can afford it.

I am a big fan of storytelling in various forms, like books, movies or video games.

Wikipedia and me

My most ambitious work to date is the article on Heteropoda maxima, which I started after reading about it on the National Geographic blog. It's been on the front page in the "Did you know..." box, which i'm very proud of. It's amazing to see how my work got lifted out of my hands by the wikipedia community.

I've also done a good deal of work on the articles The Knight Templar (Crusades trilogy), The road to Jerusalem, The Knight Templar, The kingdom at the end of the road and some on Land use politics. These additions are rather humble, but I did my best. Please - leave me a comment on these articles in my talk page. Critique is welcome too!

I have been adopted by Mahanga, and I am looking forward to poking him with questions :)

On the 6. and 7. of january 2008, two of my Wiki mottos went into "print". (I'm terribly excited about this ;) )

Outlooks on life

I've devoted myself to be happy in my life. I have found some inspiration in this endeavour in the writings of Richard Bach (especially Illusions (novel), and even more so in the two excellent books by Richard P. Feynman, Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! and What Do You Care What Other People Think?.

Condensed Inspirations (just add water)

“ Dance like nobody's watching;

love like you've never been hurt.
Sing like nobody's listening;
live like it's heaven on earth.

”

This one is from Mark Twain. Dance, sing, love and live with no restraints. This is so much fun once you get the hang of it. Feynman put it bluntly with what has become my motto: "What do you care what other people think?"
