I have an unbridled passion for Norway! But you probably already knew that.

The first place I visited in Norway was Oslo and as charming as the city is my obsession with Norway only started when we went finally got see the Fjords. (First time was Aurlandsfjord, Sognefjord and Nærøyfjord.

The second time was Lysefjord on our hike up to Pulpit Rock.) Essentially, if you’re ever in Norway and find yourself in a city, take some time to step out of the city and experience the natural wonders Norway has an abundance of – that’s truly the part of Norway that will leave you head over hills with this amazing country and desperate to keep visiting.
