  • Hello, My Name is aRisæ. I was born i Risør and has lived my entire life here. Therefore it's interesting to read about what happens in the region. One example; "Øysang" described as a Town... it's not it's a small port in Risør. And there is no such things as a "Aluminium boat festival" there :-) Please do some better reserch next time! Yours Sincerely, Mr. aRisæ
