Languages
The last years English has been main language. Speak French everyday , Perhaps not full understanding in business meetings, but enough to discuss a problem. Used to speak Dutch a bit less than fluent, and I have very good understanding. My German is a bit less strong on both accounts. My mother tongue is of course Norwegian (close to Swedish and Danish).
