[edit] Quotes

"Every time I had to cross from one continent to another I contacted Norwegian shipping agents. It was not easy to get a ride every time, but with persistence, I did manage to get free rides. They call it WorkAway and I only actually had to work a few times. One of them was the first time in 1985 when I crossed from Oslo to Buenos Aires, a 28 day journey. In the picture you see me working hard cleaning the valve covers on a huge 10 cylinder engine." - Helge Pedersen
