Again, I’m taking advantage of the sunny weather that we have here in the west. So whenever I’m on the mood for a hike or a short walk after my shift, I either skip dinner (eat only crackers) or finish my dinner really quick to explore new places around Førde. Today I drove to Mo…

A Race Against Darkness
One thing that I hate about autumn and winter days is the limited amount of daylight that we get. It’s very typical that we are always inside during the day because of work and we only have a couple of hours of daylight after. But that’s the reality of life-we can’t have everything. However, we…
Move it! Move it!
Last week’s a good opportunity for me to fully recuperate from the virus and recover from the two parking tickets that I got some weeks ago, because of day offs. Then I’ve decided to be active both indoors and outdoors. Indoors is climbing/bouldering and outdoors is hiking/walks near my place. Since, the weather’s good, I…
Luxury
Sometimes, a bit of luxury is necessary. Like for instance an eight hour sleep. It’s not always possible to get it specially when there’s a kid(s) at home. Then on the night before the flight, we only slept for only 3 hours because we had to be at the airport 2 hours before the flight….
Off to Somewhere Warm and Sunny
My vacation starts today. Glad that I took some vacation days from work. I must admit that I really need this. Today, we took an early flight and it’s my child’s first vacation abroad. I’m glad that everything went well on the flight-no tantrums. 😁 Anyway, I’m looking forward to more memories and uhmm more…
Ascension Day 2022
The Feast of the Ascension of Jesus Christ was not an excuse to just sit still and get rotten in the sofa just because it’s a holiday. It’s actually a perfect day to explore and spend time with family. Well, in my case I can’t sit still. It’s impossible when you have a little kid!…
A Short Trip to Lindås Lock (Lindåsslusene)
At first, I couldn’t understand the concept of a sea lock. I thought it’s just gates and that the purpose is to controll the boat traffic. 😛 Good thing someone explained it to me and thanks to Wikipedia I now know that a lock helps boats to pass and navigate a canal or a river…
A Beautiful Winter Day
Because of the current pandemic situation (high number of Covid-19 cases, again!), I’m studying from home again. Lectures, meetings and the seminars are online again. However, there are exceptions to the strict measures which are simulations and practical exercise such as the CPR for instance. Those cannot be done on Zoom or Skype. I am…
What Matters Really
Two weeks ago, I went for a short trip (walk) at Den Trondhjemske postvei near my place. This nice place is actually the old road that connects Bergen and Trondheim. The old road was constructed in the late 1700’s as the demand for an effective way to send/deliver goods and mail increased. During that time,…
