2 Q&A with VINUR VINUR answers questions about his life, experiences, and good memories Which words describe your personality? Happy! Sensitive, thoughtful, non-violent and up-beat. Describe your strong sides: I m an emotionally strong and happy person, I rarely get depressed. I m very loving and caring. I m very psychologically stable (no mental problems). I m fit, got a crazy metabolism (can eat anything without gaining weight). And I m an attractive person (not self proclaimed I might add). Describe your weak sides: I can be quite lazy at times, but that s probably mainly due to my age. I have a tendency to suffer from social anxiety during the winter times (might be due to being raised by a slightly old single mother, who also has some social anxiety). Which countries have you visited: Denmark, Iceland, Sweden and Spain. Describe the best holiday you have had: That was when I went to Iceland with two of my brothers, my sister in law, her brother and his girlfriend this summer and we rented a summer house in the country side close to the golden tourist ring where we had a sauna and a hot tub. It was wonderful, we had a BBQ every evening where we invited family and friends and partied every night and then proceeded to wake up early every day and went sight seeing in the whole south, south-eastern Iceland in our rented 4x4 Chevrolet. What is your marital status? Single. Do you have any children? No. Which types of sport do you play or have played? Soccer, rollerblading, skateboarding and longboarding. Which other types of sports are you interested in? Most extreme sports and American football. List any other hobbies you may have or have had: Drawing, drumming, snowboarding. List which musical instruments you play or have played: I ve played around with making some electronic music on the computer and then as mentioned above - drums. Religion: Agnostic. How many hours of sleep do you get on an average night? 8. Do you eat healthy? Always. Do you smoke? Sometimes. Do you ride a bicycle? Often. How much alcohol do you drink on average per week? 15 units i.e.15 beers fx. What do you like the most about your own country: I would characterize Denmark and Iceland as my countries, so I ll describe them separately. Denmark: I love Denmark because of the people here, who are really liberal about everything and very open people. And as I m still quite young then I might add that the parties here are awesome as well. And the welfare system is probably the best in the world. And the weather here is awesome during the summer (at least in comparison to Iceland). Iceland: The nature, the mountains, the absolute raw beauty and power! And the people there are quite similar to the Danish people, which is a good thing. The food there is a treat as well. Who are your idols/heroes/heroines? I idolize a guy called Joe Rogan, we share a lot of similar ideologies. I also admire Nicola Tesla as well, and everything he has done in regards to how we have progressed technologically as a species.

3 Q&A with VINUR - continued VINUR s dreams, favourites and experiences What are your goals in life? They re not that extravagant, just to spread joy to as many people as possible. And when ready, settle down, find a wife, get kids and possibly build my own house, possibly in New Zealand. What were your childhood dreams: Becoming an astronaut or a professional racing driver. Which values do you rank the highest? Love, compassion, empathy, health. Which childhood experience made the biggest impression on you? When I got to 7th grade, and I finally went from being the short awkward dude in my class, to being the tallest and one of the most popular guys in my school. That was the experience in my life that had the greatest impact on me, which in turn has shaped my life for the better. Which was your greatest experience or moment? That was probably when I went bungee jumping (I m a bit of an adrenaline junkie). Proudest: Facing my greatest fear. I suffer from arachnophobia, but I managed to face my fears and hold a tarantula. Most dangerous: When I was longboarding down one of the steepest hills in Denmark. I was longboarding with one of my friends late at night, and we thought (wrongfully) that there would be no cars, but then as I probably reached km/h, a late night bus turned onto the street from the left and I had to turn hard to the right so I wouldn t smash into it and I crashed onto the curb, curled up, rolled further down the street and eventually ended up in a bush. Luckily, nothing super serious happened (just a lot of bruises and scratches). Thank god I got a strong, sturdy body that can handle a lot of banging (never broken a bone in my life). Greatest sorrow: Not keeping in touch with my dad. He hasn t really been there a lot for me when I was a kid, but I m doing my best to try and stay in touch with him, and forgive and forget. What is your favourite colour? I guess.. All colors are my favorite? (don t want to discriminate, haha). What is your favourite animal? Dogs, cause they are really happy all the time. What is your favourite kind of food? Almost all Icelandic food like; Icelandic lamb, dried fish with butter, shark and hanging meat (hángi kjöt). What is your favourite kind of music: Mostly Electronic music, but also hip hop. What is your favourite kind of car: Lamborghini Veneno, or Elemento (because of the daring designs). Happiest: When I m with my big wonderful family here in Denmark around the holidays (all my brothers, my sisters in law, my mom and friends) where we make a lot of delicious food and listen to music, talk and play funny games. Funniest: When I was drunk and stole a 2 meter tall Christmas tree from the Christmas town in the main walking street and took it with me on the train all the way back home and rang on the doorbell and my mom answered the door, and there I was (heavily exhausted) but with a big smile on my face at 08:00 in the morning and said happy christmas!! Haha. Scariest: When I got beaten up at a train station by 3 skin heads, and had to go to the hospital. What is your favourite kind of pet: Dogs. What is your favourite time of year: Summer, because I love the warmth, going to the beach, and Denmark is just generally just awesome in the summer, there s always something to do. What is your favourite book and/or author: None. What is your favourite movie and/or director: The Shawshank Redemption - it s a perfect blend of sad and (weirdly enough) cozy.
