Norway 2021-2022

Hi! My name is Sigrid and I am 16 years old. I live in the centre of Brønnøysund with my mom and sister. Right now, I’m attending my first year at the local public high school, Brønnøysund VGS.

I don’t really have any specific hobbies other than weightlifting. So, in my spare time I enjoy hanging out with my friends and family.

I also spend a couple of hours working at a shop/restaurant called TD på Kaia, which can be translated to TD by the dock. Since the ship Hurtigruten docks by TD, I get to greet and serve both Norwegian and foreign tourists.

Hello! My name is August Reinfjord and I am 16 years old. I come from a small place called Sømna, and a fun-fact is that Sømna has the world’s largest cheese slicer. We are known to have a beautiful coast and nature. I like to play football, handball and go cross country skiing. I live with my mom and dad, and I also got three other siblings who doesn’t live at home anymore. Our house is by the ocean, and if you live on Helgeland, you should be prepared for a lot of rain and bad weather. In my spare time I like to go hiking and hunt in our beautiful mountains.

Sustainable development is something serious that we all need think about. If we continue to litter the sea, put plastic on every magazine and release more CO₂, we could just say goodbye to the ice in the north and penguins in the south.

Hello! My name is Rosey. I´m 16 years old and live on Sausvatnet (aka no man’s land) which literally translates to The sauce water. My house is placed right beside a river that helps me sleep at night and contains salmon! My parents are divorced therefore I live with my dad and two cats. I also have 3 siblings, but none of them live at home.

In my spare time I, like many other teens, like to be around friends and listen to music. We have many instruments at home. Out of the 5 instruments I play 2. I love playing the drums and guitar. I got my first ever drum set at the age of 4, that has resulted a love-hate relationship between me and my drums.

Traveling the word has been a dream I’ve had for as long as I can remember. I want the future generation to experience the world like we have but better. We have to make up for the earlier generations` mistakes concerning the climate change.

Hi, my name is Tomine. I`m 15 years old. I live on a little island that’s called Vega and I’m going on Brønnøysund vgs.

My motivation and knowledge for the project about sustainable development: I don’t know much about Sustainable Development, but that’s one of the reasons that I am so interested in the project. My goal is to learn more about it.

My name is Rebecka and I’m a 16 year old girl from Norway. I was born on July 15th in Trondheim. When I was 5 years old I moved to Brønnøysund. On my spare time I like to hang out with friends. I have a dog named Max, he’s a mix of border collie, golden retriever and flatcoated retriever.

Sustainable Development is important because we have to take care of the earth for the generation after us. We can help do this in many ways. We can recycle, pick up trash in the nature, walk or bike as much as possible to keep the air clean from the gas that cars, busses and trains make. My motivation to take care of the earth is because if I get kids I want them to live in a beautiful and healthy world. Sustainable Development is also about world hunger, good health and well-being, gender equality and education quality. These things are important so everyone can live a good life and feel safe here.

I want to participate in Nordplus because I want to learn more about Finland and Island and how we can collaborate together about Sustainable Development. I think going to Island is going to be a great experience for me.

My favourite hobby in athletics, or to be more precise, discus. Discus is something that I am passionate about.

Hello! My name is August Wennevik. Im 16 yeares and i live in Brønnøysund, Norway. I am a student at Brønnøysund vidregående skole. My hobbyes have to be outside and hang out with my friends. Thats actually the only thing I do after school and when I am done with my homeworks.

Hello!

My name is Alvilde Tilrem. I am 16 years old and I\m from Brønnøysund.

I live both in the town of Brønnøysund, and a little outside Brønnøysund, near Torghatten, because my parents are divorced.

My family consist of my mom, dad, little brother, little sister, half little siter and my stepmom. I think it’s really tiring with little siblings, half siblings, a week here, a week there and divorced parents. But by all means, mom and dad should never live under the same roof. They are like quarrelsome siblings.

In my spare time I like to be with friends, jog, bike, be at the gym, cook and go for walks. I also like to play and make music. My dad helps me produce the music I make. I play guitar, ukulele and piano. I have a silly dream of maybe becoming an artist or songwriter one day.

I also work at a cafe, at the only shopping center in Brønnøysund. The cafe is called “Havnecafeen” and that means the cafe by the harbor.

I like going to school, and my favorite subjects are English, gym, Norwegian and social studies. I do not like Spanish, math and science. I find those subjects very difficult.

I´m excited for Nordplus. See you!

My name is Aksel, I am 15 years old. I like to spend time with friends and family, I work out 3-4 times a week. I also play a lot of video games with my friends. Something that interests me is football, I am not a big fan of playing it, but I like to watch it and to talk about it, and I also play Fifa. I live in Brønnøysund in a street called Nordøyveien 7.

My motivation for sustainable development is not that impressive.  I don’t have much knowledge about it, but I know something. If the planet is going to live longer than it looks like now, we need to do some changes in how we are live.  I leave trash in trashcans, and I don’t trash the nature, but i don’t have a “Greta Thunberg” vibe.
