Hi guys, this is my 1st post on the blog. I am going to be writing about my travel adventures.
I became fascinated with Norway after I read books on Norse mythology as a child. I've actually wanted to visit this beautiful country for a while and while doing research for my trip, I came across this great article about interesting facts on Norway.
I will post part of the article below:
"
