My name is Eva Kristin, and I finally got the time to write a post myself, after reading a lot of interesting and funny posts on steemit. I´m 28 years old, and born in a small village (with about 1200 inhabitants in the municipality), with high mountains and fjords, its really beautiful, almost like a little Norwegian fairytale!
pictures from my little village in Nordfjord during winter and summertime
Unfortunately there are not as many jobs as a lawyer where I come from, so now I live in Stavanger, a medium size town (in Norwegian standard), working as a legal adviser. Fortunately Stavanger a very nice city too.
Here is a picture from Rennesoy just outside Stavanger
As you can imagine I´m a pretty big nerd, love reading law books, other books, playing TV-games and board games. My latest discovery is Steemit (yey!), and embarrassing enough I love collecting pokemons at pokemonGO, haha.
One of my favorite activities in life is traveling. I love getting to know new people and cultures, and spend way too much money on traveling. On steemit I would love to share some tips and tricks about does and don’ts, both in Norway and other places where I travel :) I´ve been to USA, Brazil, Argentina, South-Africa, Sri-Lanka, India, and many countries in Europe. I have worked in the slum in India (2008) and Sri Lanka (2008 - during the war), and have learned a lot about other cultures. That’s one of the reasons my first job after finishing law school was at The Norwegian Immigration Appeals Board (UNE). As I´m from a village with 1500-2000 meters high mountains, I believe that I and my village people are born to love walking in the mountains, so maybe I will show you some nice pictures from trips to my home place and mountaintops too :)
I mean Steemit has the potential to be something real big. Its kind of a mixture of Facebook, Reddit, Bitcoin and blogging, and I really love this social experiment. The nerds meet the makeup-blog, and the stock speculator meet the hipster. And everyone can contribute with what they are good at. I´ve also noticed that people seem to be more genuine than on places like Facebook, and you can earn money on writing quality posts. Therefore I think it's fun to be involved right from the start, and contribute to Steemit growing into the sky :)

That's a beautiful Owl! Welcome to Steem!

Norwegian fairytale mmm
Nice intro! Welcome to another scandinavian! :)

"Unfortunately there are not as many jobs as a lawyer where I come from."
There are less and less jobs for anyone over time lately. :(
Enjoy your steemit experience! :)
No, I havn't been to the land of the thousand lakes. But I would like to visit Moomin troll (Mumi-trollet in norwegian) some day :)
Haha that's awesome, a close friend of mine lives in that town, he finds it pretty chill there. :)

hi, nice intro and pics but verification isn't the strongest. you talk about facebook, can you link to it? I can't find any Eva Kristin that looks like you. writing on the hands looks photoshopped.
not an easy one . @anyx what you say?
I know her and she is real. Does that help?
edit: nevermind. see below
See my comment up there. She is very real.
okay thanks I'll take your word for it. also I think I found her facebook, though it is private and her face can't be seen. but there is indeed a Eva Kristin from Stavanger
I've been into Pokemon GO lately too! haha
haha, yeah, it's pretty all-consuming ;) I stop many times to catch pokemon while cycling home from work... embarrassing - I'm too old ;)
I see lots of people just walking down the street and then suddenly stop, buried in their phones. haha good chance it's pokemon go. I've been cycling and stopping from work too! really easy to cover a lot of ground =)
Welcome! Nice introduction
Thanks :)
Norway looks amazing!
Norway is quite amazing, nature is wild and beautiful :) <3
It's going to the top of my next places to visit :D
welcome Eva, that owl was so cool :D
Thanks! The owl isn't mine, I just borrowed it for an hour
Still cool! I want to hold an owl one day too :D
Hi Eva, welcome to steemit !
Thanks :)
Great introduction and beautiful photos. :)
Thanks a lot :)
Wow, it is beautiful there. What kind of wildlife do you get to see? Is that a pet owl?
Hi, thanks :) Well, we have very many different animal species in Norway, for example elk, deer, roe deer, owls, bears, lynx, squirrel, fox, beaver, wolf, hare and vipers :) Yes, its a pet-owl, but this owl is from Japan :) But we have a lots of owls in Norway aswell, but I don't think we have that many pet-owls ;)
Welcome Eva! Du kommer att älska det här :)
I know this sounds crazy but, what's the name of your owl?? :)
ja, jag tror att jag kommer att älska steemit ;) It's not my owl, I just rented it in when travelling in Japan :)
Your country is very beautiful nature. Many people dream of living in such places. In my country, it is also very beautiful. There are a lot of mountains. But unfortunately I do not have to live there.
You're cute. Good luck in life and steemit
Thanks, I feel very lucky to have grown up in such a nice place :) I'm sure it is lovely where you come from as well :)

Hello,Eva, I am, from Russia, from Siberia! I very much had liked the nature in your photos. She is similar to ours. The bright paints, a green grass and mountains covered with snow). Sorry for my English))
I've only been in transit in Moscow, and flown across the country, but it looked very nice from the air :)
