After having been on the road for some time, we were going to spend three days in the same destination. This was in Bergen, where I used to live when I was a student and Noways second largest city. Our main goal for the stay, a part from enjoying ourselves was to spend some time… Continue reading Road trip 15: Bergen

Road trip 14: Voss
When we left Tyssedal in the morning, the weather was a bit overcast, so e got in the car again and drove some more around Hardanger, and crossed the fjord using a bridge I had not used before, that took us into a relatively new tunnel that took us towards Bergen. On our way there… Continue reading Road trip 14: Voss
Road trip 13: Tyssedal
In the lovely area of Hardanger we had a room booked for the night at the small industrial village of Tyssedal. From the 19th century, Tyssedal has been a tourist destination, also know outside of Norway. European nobility traveled to Tyssedal from early 1800, and even Keizer Wilhelm visited several times. In Tyssedal you can… Continue reading Road trip 13: Tyssedal
Road trip 12: Hardanger
After having driven over Hardangervidda and visited Vøringsfossen, we hit the fjord and the area called Hardanger. The area here is beautiful, very Norwegian with the fjords and mountains. Just like a lot of the fjord areas building roads has not been the easiest, so the national tourist roads here is a tourist attraction in… Continue reading Road trip 12: Hardanger

When I walked through town the first time, a nicely colored building caught… Continue reading Holiday Week 9: Food

First stop was a very good sports outlet where I got a lot of needed sports gear. I also… Continue reading Holiday week 3: Jørpeland, Rosehagen
Holiday week
It has been very sunny and warm here the last while. Now it is forecast to get a bit colder and rain. Why is that you might add? I have a theory, it is probably related to the fact that I have a weeks holidays. I started the holiday by going in to town for… Continue reading Holiday week
