Official Website

Arnesen was born in 1953 in Bærum, Norway on the outskirts of Oslo, where, at an early age, her parents immersed her in their passions: cross-country skiing and polar history.

Her love of athletics and the outdoors eventually led Arnesen to compete in orienteering and cross-country skiing, as well as to coach high school students in advanced-level cross-country skiing.

After her South Pole trek in 1994, Liv Arnesen founded her own company, "White Horizons," which provides motivational lectures and team-building programs to kids and adults.

She is author of, Snille piker går ikke til Sydpolen (Nice Girls do not Ski to the South Pole) , which is about her 1994 expedition.

She also recently authored a management book with Norwegian Jon Gangdal, Kan Jeg? fra drøm til virkelighet (Can I do it? From Dream to Reality). Beyond exploration, Arnesen has taught and coached high school and
