Third planet from the sun (Swedish)

What are you looking forward to most in this campaign?
Crossing the equator!

What personal connection do you have to the ocean?
Well, I spent the first 9 months of my life in water, so...

How/why did you get involved with Greenpeace? How did you get started working at sea?
Fifteen years at sea in all different kind of ships. This is more than just a job.

Why is this expedition (Defending Our Oceans) important to you?
The oceans are a part of my home,and I like my home.

Got any dogs, cats, parakeets or significant others you want to mention?
Parakeets? Should be in the jungle,shouldn't they? But I still got my Land Rover 92 Discovery V8I. She's a real nice lady, oh yeah. Just fill her up, put the roof tent on and then... hmm... maybe go spot the parakeets in the jungle. Could be fun!

Any experiences with the fishing industry or pirate fishing (either as a fisherman or an activist) that you want to mention?
My last trip was in Norway on the Esperanza in the Barents Sea, as well as some actions in Oslo this winter.
