Editorial Summary

In this video, Viking Chairman Torstein Hagen reflects on the foundational values instilled in him during his childhood in Norway. Growing up in a small house near a large forest, Hagen notes that he was taught to prioritize kindness, honesty, and hard work. He explains that these three specific qualities are important because they are within an individual's personal control. Over time, Hagen has integrated a fourth essential value into his philosophy: curiosity. He encourages viewers to maintain a sense of curiosity regarding the world, specifically concerning the history and various cultures of destinations they have not yet visited. Hagen concludes by suggesting that traveling with an open heart and a curious mindset allows individuals to find fresh inspiration.
