I live with my girlfriend Mette in Frederiksberg-Copenhagen in Denmark. I have a job as Finance Adviser in BRFkredit - a Mortgage Bender in the Finance industry with about 600 employees. I have been working in BRFkredit since 1994 and have tried several different  jobfunctions. In the last few years I have been involved in different kinds of projects involving implementation of new technology in the firm. My function was as an instructor/teacher for costumers as well as the employees inside the company. 

Beside my education in the finance industry I have finished a degree as Graduate Diploma in Business Administration Informatics and Management Accounting at Copenhagen Business School. 

In my spare-time I play soccer and golf and spend as much time as possible with my family and friends. I enjoy the nature and love travelling. My girlfriend and I have recently been travelling around the world for 10 months and in the winter I love skiing in the european Alps. 

Hopes and expectations of the trip:
Being so far away from Denmark I am hoping to get a lot of truly unforgettable experiences. The theme for me is to get the opportunity to see a different culture, another way of living and the daily work in  another part of the world. I hope to learn about Mexico, its people and its culture. Working in the Finance sector I am looking forward to see how my profession is carried out in Mexico.
 

I have been studying e-business, strategy and management. I am interessted in which strategy-models and management forms are being used in Mexico, and how e-business is used in the finance sector (e-banking etc) and in Mexico in general. 

I am really looking forward to meet the locals especially the families and the different companies to get a feeling of how Mexico really is. In that way you get a much better impression of the country, its culture and background. 

I am also looking foward to see some of Mecicos many cultural and historical sights and see some of the fantastic nature around Mexico. And as a certified diver I would love to try some of Mexicos exellent diving spots – ranked as some of the best places in the world.
