Rescue course

Me and Vibeke was on a climbing rescue course this weekend. Very interesting, nice to know what to do if the one you are climbing with get injured.


A butterfly didn't understand that Teresas homemade chalk bag was not a flower :)

Everyone listening to Jarle the instructor


Vibeke is coming to rescue me, as I am hanging "injured" in the wall :)

Sea kayaking Helgeland

Last weekend I was with the kayak group of NTNUI sea kayaking in Helgeland (almost at home!! :) A very nice weekend, and I learned a lot!

Siri making coffe while waiting for the ferry in the morning. We where supposed to take it the night before, but we where to late... So we had to sleep by the road...

Lunch :)

Eating shrimps :)

BBQ in the evening.

We paddled out to see the old stone carvings at Rødøya which is 4-5000 years old. This is probably a kayak.

This is the first proof in history of skiing!

Siri rolling the kayak

Me trying (not very successfully...) to roll... People who can roll probably see straight away what I do wrong.

ECF18 - Dresden

First week of September we where at the European Conference of Fracture in Dresden. My first conference. Very interesting, but quite scare to talk about my work in front of strangers... In October, I will go on my next conference, MMM5 (Multiscale Materials Modeling) in Freibourg. Got a lot of Germany.... But its nice there at least :)

Most of the NTNU delegation at the dinner. Christian, Bjørn, Erling, me and Christer.


I love the east German green man!!

Dresden! Pretty city.
