For many years I’ve been dreaming to go far north to the Arctic Circle
Arriving in Oslo in wintertime you feel the breeze
I was very lucky to find the tickets for an amazing modern opera in the Oslo National Opera
A unique Nordic building by the port
A visit to the Edvard Munch museum and watching his most famous painting “The Scream” was another experience
Next day early morning fly to Thomso
Arriving there you immediately feel the cold
-25 C
Heavy snow everywhere
Walking by the small harbor it’s impressive seeing fishermen working normally on icy boats
A king crabs menu was delicious
In the museum of the biggest explorer Roald Amundsen I was left speechless about the feeling how they lived and survived more than a century ago in such extreme unknown conditions
During the day you get this strange feeling of soft darkness
You have daylight only for a couple of hours
And then the magic came
The Aurora Borealis
This green light like magic
We stayed on a country camp to live the outdoor experience
Riding sleigh with four husky dogs on the wilderness was absolutely amazing
Traveling is a way of life
