Hmmm.. many many many things; but one of the things typical for me is: I collect weird and old items, furnitures, clothes, shoes, purses and other stuff most people think are ugly or lack any value. I reinvent them, make them my own and continue to use them. Give me some money, show me any second hand shop, Fretex, marked etc, and I'll go bananas... This interest is of course only one of many...I also like to dance... sometimes... And... I'm at the time writing a thesis about rhetorics with some focus on the politician who once said: â€Jeg har ikke sagt det før, men gjentar det gjerneâ€... ("I have not said it before, but I'll gladly repeat it")Anyone???And litterature and poetry....
