Hello there, and thank you for reading ! This is a picture of me at the top of Norway with my paraglider.. call me lazy, but walking down mountains is something you stop doing rather quickly after getting your paraglider certificate.

I'll try to use this post to introduce myself, and say a thing or two about the stuff I'll be writing about!

I moved from the city life in the capitol of Oslo to live in this place:

It's a fjord in Vesteraalen, Norway. The picture is taken from the porch.. what do you think?!

My dear grandfather bought the place in his time, and we've kept it in the family ever since. Here I live with two buddies that i used to study with... and now work with!

So why move here?

Beautiful?

I'll let the nature here speak for itself.. It's basically Disneyland for adventurous souls!

I'll be writing about the stuff i do in my spare time here.. skiing, paragliding, scuba diving ( sometimes with orcas) and more!

My friends @kariofthenorth and @susanne got me into this. @Kariofthenorth actually just moved to the fjord, read about her first encounter with northern norway on her blog...!

This is some fantastic scenery! Between yourself and @susanne, Norway is moving up my list of Must See places on earth...

I'm making it my life task to get my fjord to the top of your list. @kariofthenorth just moved here and has a interesting perspective on 'life in the fjord'..

I will check out their blog, as well. Thank you, and cheers to you for 2018!
