What more could you be interested in knowing? I delve into European spirituality, gods, heroes, myths not simply for the sake of entertainment, but to draw inspiration from. I enjoy nature, cultural expressions of my kinsmen in all its varying ways and be in the company of those of like mind. That is to love and build our own, that includes giving our young folk an opportunity to at minimum live a better life than most in my generation was able to.
For the particularly curious, I do write a bit of poetry or some lyrics. Psychology also intrigues me, usually I apply my knowledge to help people, given that it is appreciated effort. I am always keen to see people become more proactive and hopeful in life.
When it may come to pass, I cannot say, however I do have some ambitions to partake in the creation of movies about history. Vikings obviously, Westerns, Medieval, all of which and more that may be worth exploring. For fun, but of course also to help our people become whole again. Thank you for taking the time to read, all the best and enjoy the Viking series!
