Viking Magazine - April 2019 - 4
Velkommen
Velkommen, ambassadør!
Welcome, Ambassador!
ons of Norway has had a member publication since its inception,
beginning as Sønner af Norge, a newsletter written entirely in
Norwegian. Eventually the magazine transitioned to being written
in English and adopted the title Viking. Many have said to me that they
consider Viking to be the benefi t of membership that they value the most. I
agree. I look forward to receiving my Viking every month, with its mix of
articles about past and present Norway, happenings in North
America with a Norwegian fl avor, Nordic recipes, lodge
events and so much more.
Throughout its existence, Viking has always been a work
in progress, with improvements continually being made so
that the publication is current, fresh and inviting. In keeping
with the commitment to provide the best magazine possible
for our members, I am very excited to announce a
new addition to the publication's line-up: a monthly
column by Kåre R. Aas, Norway's Ambassador
to the United States. The Ambassador will be
providing us with his refl ections on various
international topics of importance to Norway
through a regular article that makes its debut
this month on page 38.
S
Appointed to his current position in 2013,
Ambassador Aas sees strengthening communication
as a major priority of his job. He is active on social
media (Twitter: @kareraas and the Embassy's
Facebook page: Norwegian Embassy in Washington),
and involved in the Embassy's Virtual Ambassador
Program, an initiative to reach out to students at
various American universities. Now, he has added
communicating with the Norwegian American
community through Viking.
Ambassador Aas brings extensive knowledge gained
from his varied diplomatic assignments to share with
us. We are extremely fortunate to have his unique
insight. On behalf of our membership, I welcome the
Ambassador to Viking magazine and thank him for
helping us gain an understanding of modern Norway.
ons of Norway har utgitt et medlemsblad
helt fra begynnelsen som opprinnelig
het " Sønner af Norge, " et nyhetsbrev
skrevet fullstending på norsk. Etterhvert ble
medlemsbladet utgitt på engelsk og og fi kk
navnet Viking. Mange har fortalt meg at de
synes Viking er en av medlemsfordelene
de liker best. Jeg er enig. Jeg gleder meg
til å få Viking magasinet hver måned med
sin blanding av artikler om fortid og nåtid,
hendelser i Nord-Amerika med et norsk
særpreg, nordiske oppskrifter, lodgebegivenheter
og mye mer.
I alle år har Viking vært et magasin under
S
utvikling, med kontinuerlige forbedringer
slik at den holder seg aktuell, fersk og
innbydende. I tråd med forpliktelsen om
å tilby et best mulig magasin for våre
medlemmer, er jeg veldig begeistret over
å meddele et nytt innholdstillegg: en
månedlig spalte av Kåre R. Aas, Norges ambassadør
til USA. Ambassadøren skal dele
sine betraktninger om ulike internasjonale
temaer av betydning for Norge gjennom
en regelmessig artikkel som debuterer
denne måneden på side 38.
Ambassadør Aas ble utnevnt til sin
nåværende stilling i 2013, og betrakter bedre
kommunikasjon som en viktig prioritet i
jobben sin. Han er aktiv på sosiale medier
(Twitter: @kareraas og på ambassadens
Facebook-side: Den norske ambassaden i
Washington), og involvert i ambassadens
virtuelle ambassadørprogram, et initiativ
for å rekke ut en hånd til studenter på
ulike amerikanske universiteter. Nå har han
utvidet kommunikasjonen med det norskamerikanske
samfunnet gjennom Viking.
Ambassadør Aas skal dele sine omfatRon

tende kunnskaper fra varierte diplomatiske
oppdrag. Vi er utrolig heldige over
å få tilgang til hans usedvanlige innsikt.
På vegne av medlemskapet ønsker jeg
ambassadøren velkommen til Viking-magasinet
og takker ham for bidraget til å øke
forståelsen av det moderne Norge.
