NORWAY
Our trip to Portugal was booked for the 2nd of December. HAU-OSL-FRA-OPO was the itinerary. This time, we didn't go to the centre of Oslo with Flytoget. The normal railway is cheaper and the conditions are the same; the only difference is the schedule. We went to the Folk Museum by bus and we were... Continue Reading →
One month to Christmas. One week to arrive home. I love this time of the year. Our home calls for us. We want to be warmed, cosy and happy. It's time to be with our family and friends, it's time to enjoy the intimate and special moments. Danish hygge, Swedish mys and Norwegian kos are the words that characterize... Continue Reading →
Besides taking care of our dear cows, we have been colecting the wood for the fireplace and we have been helping Torstein's parents renovating their house. The time to be inside has arrived. It is so good to sit by the fireplace, eating biscuits and drinking tea... You can find the recipe for this cake... Continue Reading →
First of all, I have to thank Torstein for giving us the chance to go on this amazing trip to the North. We went to Tromsø from Saturday 4th to Tuesday 7th (my birthday!). We flew with Norwegian from Haugesund to Oslo and from Oslo to Tromsø. We went to the city centre by train (Flytoget... Continue Reading →
In this region, people celebrate Halloween during the weekend. October 31st and November 1st are normal work days. On Friday, we went to a scouts meeting with Torstein. They had to go to several houses where hosts gave them tasks to do. The group that performed more tasks from 9pm until midnight won the competition.... Continue Reading →
Ever since I was a girl, I have dreamed about a different world. A world that cares about nature, animals and humans. I use to say that I care more about animals than humans, but it's not true. I wish I could be part of human transformation. A transformation which involves our culture, tradition and... Continue Reading →
On Friday 13th, after work, we took the bus from Arsvågen to Bergen. We stayed at the P-Hotels. It's in the city centre and the beds are very comfortable - of course you don't have Scandic's fantastic breakfast (and the bathroom is a disaster). There are a lot of pubs and bars, so it gets noisy... Continue Reading →
It's Saturday. It's time to book our trip to Bergen and to Tromsø. My mother called me saying that my father is not well. The date of the open heart surgery is still not confirmed. I want to be there; meanwhile, I have to make the best of my stay in Norway. Our daily routine is... Continue Reading →
I know it's a cliché expression (due to Game of Thrones), but it's true. Winter is coming and we need to prepare everything for that season. We are collecting all of the animals, putting drains in the fields, cleaning and storing the machines that were used in summer and making sure we have the conditions... Continue Reading →
Two births and three calves in one week... Yes, one of the cows had twins! A girl and a boy! The first delivery happened on September 18th, at 7:45pm, and the second one on September 19th, at 4pm. We gave 20 litres of water to the cows and Torstein put the calves with the other... Continue Reading →
