Oh Norway you are ever so beautiful; no seriously, you are! Back when this vacation was off in the distance, I didn’t really know what to expect; I mean, I knew that there would be blond beauties everywhere- and there are; I knew it would be expensive- and it is (in fairness I was warned); but I had no idea it would be as astonishingly beautiful as it is. And all this beauty right in my very own temporary backyard!

I’m talking rolling green hills, glistening water and architecture to rival some of the best cities in Europe- London beware, Norway is coming for you!



My cousin’s condo backs onto a fjord and it is absolutely breathtaking; her view is worth the astronomical amount they pay to live here- I kid you not dear readers, Norway is SUPER expensive; I have been here for a week and I am still getting sticker shock. But, I don’t think I could ever get used to paying $10.00 for a latte, no matter how delicious and creamy- and OH MAN, they’ve been delicious AND creamy!



These are the pictures I took of my cousins view- and one at the train stop by her place; and can you believe I didn’t edit these photos AT ALL?? Nope, this is just the raw beauty that Norway has to offer.

I would say this is the BEST place in the world, to gain some- much needed- perspective; wouldn’t you?!
