  • THEA EMILIE TVEDT

    Executive Assistant

    Oslo Office

    Thea is our intern and we are blessed to have the opportunity to learn from her before she is off to study Master of Hoteliere Management in Lausanne.

    Thea has a passport full of chapters since day one. Travel isn’t just a hobby for her—it's a way of life. After wrapping up her studies in London, she dove into the travel industry, drawn by the mix of planning, people, and discovery that keeps you on your toes.

    Raised across Norway, Switzerland, and California, Thea learned fast how to adapt to new environments. That upbringing didn’t just shape her curiosity and flexibility; it gave her a grounded love for the outdoors and a sharp respect for different ways of living. Norway’s rugged outdoors stays close to her heart, even as she explores the rest of the world.

    Details, structure, and organization aren’t chores for Thea—they’re the gears that keep great experiences turning. She values consistency and follow-through, approaching work with a calm, thoughtful mindset. Her pride comes from shaping experiences that are well-prepared, carefully considered, and genuinely memorable.

     When she’s not shaping itineraries, you’ll find Thea outside. Alpine skiing, fishing, and hiking recharge her, and nature isn’t just a backdrop—it’s how she re-centers and refuels. That outdoors-first mindset informs how she thinks about travel: simple, meaningful, and rooted in place. Thea is happy to be part of Nordfolk Travel and looks forward to contributing to memorable journeys that people remember for years to come.
