Nissefar / Nisse Dad.

English below.

Nissefar er født og opvokset i Connecticut. Men det er mange år siden han blev Vendelbonisse.

Nissefar har rejst over hele verden, og han har brugt sit liv på at prøve at forstå andre nisser og deres liv, og derfor endte han med at forstå sig selv. Han har rejst på alle kontinenterne og de syv have, og han ved alt om havets fisk og fiskerne, der fanger dem – og Nissefar elsker fisk!

Men nissefar elsker også at rejse og at møde nye nisser, han elsker at læse bøger om andres tanker, han elsker at spille skak, han elsker at diskutere, han elsker at synge og lytte til andre, der synger, han elsker at spise godt og drikke godt øl, han elsker solskin og snevejr – han elsker at leve, og siger tit, at livet er en gave, og man skal passe på ikke at spilde den ved hele tiden at stille spørgsmål til, hvorfor man fik den. 

Husk, siger han, langt de fleste bekymringer har vi selv fundet på. 

Nisse Dad.

Nisse Dad was born in Connecticut. But it has been many, many years since he became a Danish Vendelbo-nisse.

Nisse Dad has traveled all over the world and spent his life learning to understand other nisser and their lives, and that’s how he learned to understand himself. He has traveled all the continents and the seven seas, and he knows everything about the fish in the sea and the fisher nisser, who catch them – and Nisse Dad loves fish!

But Nisse Dad also loves traveling and meeting new nisser, he loves reading books about other nisser’s thoughts, he loves debating, he loves singing and listening to others singing, he loves eating good food and drinking good beer, he loves sunshine and snow – he loves living, and he often says that life is a precious gift, so be careful not to waste it asking too many questions about why it was given to you – live your life well and be grateful.

Remember, he says, most worries we invented, all by ourselves.
