Hello everyone! My name is Bjorn and I am a Viking from Norway. As a Viking, it was my job to protect the people and I did this by being brave and strong.

I usually ate a lot of fish and other seafood, as well as different meats like beef and lamb and different kinds of fruits and vegetables. I also drank a lot of mead which was made from honey.

I typically wore a heavy woolen tunic which was often dyed different colors with different patterns. I also wore a pair of leather trousers and heavy leather boots, and I would often don a metal helmet and chainmail to protect me in battle.

My favorite activity was sailing, so I spent a lot of time on longboats discovering new places and engaging in battle with rival tribes. I also loved hunting, fishing and exploring.

Thank you for listening and I hope you have learned a few of things about Viking life.
