Bjarki Friis
I'm half Danish and Icelandic. I grew up in Mestersvig, NE-Greenland & Norway. I'm educated as a carpenter in Denmark. I spent 5 years in the Danish army and navy. March 2005 - July 2007 I was a member of the military Sledge patrol SIRIUS. Aug 2007 - Aug 2008 I was working as the station leader on Naval guard Mestersvig, NE-Greenland. I spent 6 1/2 years on Svalbard, studying and working as a guide and geologist. I have a master in Glacial-geology from Iceland & Norway. From 2011-2015 I worked as an exploration geologist with "Store Norske", a coal mining company on Svalbard. Currently I work as a natural hazards specialist at the Icelandic Meteorological office in Iceland.

The famous poem from the Icelandic Sagas

Gunnar of Hlidarendi, (Njåls Saga)
"Fair are the hillsides, so fair as I have never seen them before,
the pale meadows and just-mown hayfields.
I am going home and I will never leave again."

"Fögur er hliðin svo að mer hefir hun aldrei jafnfögur synst, bleikir akrar en slegin tun, og mun eg riða heim aftur og fara hvergi."

"Fager er lien, så at jeg aldri har sett den så fager - gule åkre og nyslåtte tun -, og jeg vil ri hjem igjen og ikke dra noe sted."
