    What is your favorite type of weather? The timing is perfect for our cabin trip to Kvamskogen this weekend! The weather looks great—clear skies and sunshine. Kvamskogen is just an hour’s drive from Bergen and is popular among those who love cross-country and slalom skiing. It’s also one of the favorite cabin trip destinations for…

    When Aurora Drops by

    Last night, I was lucky enough to see the northern lights just outside the house. We were in the middle of the wine and cheese night when I saw the Facebook story of my friend with a picture of aurora borealis at her place. So I went outside to check the skies then I saw…

    The Runway

    This shot is an underground tunnel at work that connects the parking area to the main building. This week is a bit hectic for me because of the snowfall and the heavy trafic. So yesterday I had to run because I was late.

    The Small Ones Deserve to Live Too

    Winter can be a ruthless season not only for us humans but also for the animals. It is important to help these creatures or else they would go extinct. Besides, it doesn’t take much of your time and energy to help them. It’s been cold these past few weeks. The temperature dropping to as low…

  • A Broken Wing

    A Broken Wing

    Three days ago, we took in an injured owl. First, it was found on the driveway four days ago, but then no one could attend to it right away because we were on the way out. Then the day after we went on an search operation to find it and check the owl’s injury. Fortunately,…

  • Staying Away

    Staying Away

    Temptations are everywhere if you’re not doing anything or bored. The best way to avoid it is to go away, keep moving and be busy with something else. As I’ve read from my Facebook friends’ post “You don’t fight temptations. You stay away from it.” It has been a dream summer weather for a couple…

  • A Trip to Gytta

    A Trip to Gytta

    Hiking during the day specially when it’s hot is a challenge. It’s a test not only of your stamina but also your mind. A week ago, I went for an afternoon hike near my flat. It’s not far but I struggled uphill due to the heat. It was around 25 degrees Celsius that day. For…

  • Hammocking Alone

    Hammocking Alone

    Who would have thought that a city girl like me can survive being alone in the woods? Never in my wildest dreams before I have thought about camping alone. I’ve never been a girl scout before. But here I am smiling because I can’t believe that I actually did it. For me, it’s another achievement.…

  • How to Kill Boredom

    How to Kill Boredom

    Last week was a perfect week to be outside. It was sunny and warm. The temperature was around 15 degrees Celsius. For me it’s already too hot because I was starting to get used to the cold winter months. I wasn’t complaining though because I found an excuse to skip (and not feel guilty) the…

  • The Trip to Huldefossen

    The Trip to Huldefossen

    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…
