Never ending sun
Oslo was quite strange due to the fact that at 1 am it was so sunny out it looked like it was 6 PM. We don't think that it every got dark. Taking part in a Norwegien delicacy we enjoyed some waffles with something called brown cheese or Gjetost. The ...
Stuff I Miss - Volume 1
Greetings all! Today marks the fifth week since my journey began. 5 weeks down, 14 to go. Over 1/4 done already. It's hard to believe, really. I think I can say that I'm pretty well settled in now, and more familiar with Norwegian culture than most ...

Oslo - gateway to the fjords

On Top of the World
My first instinct is to start by writing 'Has it really only been two weeks since that day when the bus landed me in Tromsř?!' The next thing I feel like saying is ‘Just two weeks?! No way, I must’ve been here for at least two ...
