Photographer, Stavanger, Norway

Surfing photographer, amateur surfer and dawn-patrol nerd. Based on the south-west coast of Norway, I play in the surf with my board and camera. Keen traveler, preferably to northern hemisphere destinations where wetsuits are required.

SurfEars is just a great little thing. Without these earplugs, the cold water and wind chill will make my ears hurt and exposing me to the risk of surfers ear. As hearing ability is maintained, I can still have a decent conversation in the line-up, as opposed to other types of earplugs available.
