About Me
My name is Andre Orstad Croswell. I was born in Stavanger, Norway on July 10th, 2002.Â
I grew up most of my life in a small town west in Norway with the name: Bryne, except for a few years in San Francisco from age 1-4.
My father is from Northern California so I've always loved coming out here to visit my family and friends.Â
Growing up I would come to California every Summer and every other Christmas to visit my lovely family here in Sonoma County, California. My real hometown is in Bryne, Norway. Where I have spent most of my childhood with my mothers side of the family. My dad has also lived in Norway my whole life. I am a little bit more comfortable speaking and writing in Norwegian than English but would still consider English my first language as well.

My Hometown
The picture you see here is taken in my hometown Bryne, Norway. The building in the background is my Grandfathers Hotel called: Hotell Jaeren.Â
The church in the top left corner is where I was baptized and had my confirmation at 15 years old. Which is a common Christian tradition in Norway where the priest asks that the confirmant will be preserved in the Christian faith, and after celebrate the beginning of your adult life usually with your whole family.
