Norway, tourism, travel, nature, architecture

Have you been to Norway? No?! Me neither. For those who have, you might recognise these fantastical scenes. I can’t believe these places can be found on earth, they look so darn heavenly. They must shoot a lot of car commercials here!

The National Tourist Routes in Norway has a fantabulous site where you choose your region in Norway and select a path by nature or architecture – who cool is that? I say VERY! There’s tourist info and maps to plot your way.

Me – I’m dreaming of road tripping in the midnight sun…..
