Hey guys,

My name is Paul, a 21 year old guy from Norway.

I'm currently studying in Bergen for a BBA (Bachelor of Business Administration). Although this is my study, I have a rising interest for computer science. I think technologies like artificial intelligence and blockchain will create one heck of an exciting future. So I'm trying to learn some of that stuff in my spare time. 

Some other interests of mine are 

• football
• reading
• travelling
• skiing
• hiking
• investing

My dream is to someday be financially independent, not having to live that 9-5 normal life. I'm a minimalist, or at least a wannabe minimalist. I still have a fairly normal life, but I try to not buy stuff I don't need. Maybe one day I'll have a campervan and just travel around. 

I've already been travelling quite a bit actually, 16 countries so far. In 2015/16 i spent six and a half months living in Madagascar as a volunteer/cultural student. However there's still so many countries and cultures to explore.

I don't know how I would like to contribute to the Steemit community, but I hope I can be useful in some way. I'm more of a reader than a writer, but I'd like to share some stuff that could help you in some way. I'm planning to write a story for Matched betting, the way I make some extra cash as a college student. I could also give other tips on personal finance. 

Anyway, that's a littlebit about me. I hope I can learn a lot of stuff on here and make some friends.

Follow me if you'd like to hear more about personal finance, minimalism, investing, travel etc. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions :-)
