About Me

Oy! My name is Per Øyvind Nygård. I'm a 27 year old "geek" from Norway. I write geek in quotation marks, because I sort of consider myself a geek, even though I don't think I actually fit in any conventional geek category. I am interested in several things that can be considered geek-ish; Computers, comics, games, music, programming, etc... But none to a level that really qualify me as an actual geek, at least not in my opinion.

I live in a place called Dokka, but I spend most of my time at my girlfriend Wenche's place in Gran. Because of several health and economic issues, as well as friends and family, I can't really move away from Dokka anytime soon, and the same is the case for Wenche when it comes to moving away from Gran. So even though we'd both like to move in with each other, it's impossible at the moment.

I am technically half-Dutch, my mother lived in the Netherlands until she was 11, and was still a Dutch citizen when I was born, which means I was as well for a short while. I, unfortunately, can't speak Dutch, though. I'd very much like to learn, and I'm currently able to understand a bit of it, but I'm nowhere near able to actually make myself understood. I have found a woman from the Netherlands, an old friend of my deceased grandmother, that has volunteered to be my Dutch-teacher, but she lives at Dokka, and as I already mentioned I don't spend too much time at Dokka, so I haven't had a single lesson yet.
