As we were driving through the northern parts of Norway on our holiday, we happened to pass by Alstahaug church in Nordland just around midnight. As we meant to drive a bit further before finding a place for the night, we just as well had a walk around the old stone church, build in the […]
While I was in Oxfordshire, the lovely family I lived with took me to see Blenheim Palace, Winston Churchill’s birthplace. And I was impressed already at the front gate of the building. It’s enormous! And a quick ImDb search also revealed that parts of the palace can be seen in several well known movies such […]
As a movie nerd, of course I had to visit Christ Church University while I was in Oxford! It was absolutely breathtaking with it’s green meadows and lawns, old historic buildings, beautiful architecture and wonderful athmosphere. The place I wanted to see was closed until after lunch, so I had about an hour and a half […]
My stay in the UK didn’t go as planned at all, but it turned out almost better than I had expected it to be. I spent just one week at the stable I was supposed to stay at, and returned to the stable in Surrey. Just a couple of days later, kind of before I […]

Tomorrow, after a 2,5 hour drive to Værnes, I’ll board my plane to Oslo and then continue to Heathrow, UK. I’m going to spend about two weeks in Surrey at the stable I worked at in 2013, and then I’m going to Canterbury to spend several weeks at a bigger stable when I’ll do yard […]
During our week down south, we went for a little evening stroll through the woods where my boyfriend used to play when he was little. The woods down there are quite different to those I’m used to, so it was nice to explore a little. Due to the slightly warmer climate, there are types of […]
A couple of weeks ago we took a week off and travelled to the south of Norway to visit friends and family, and do some sightseeing in the area. One of the days we visited the town of Tønsberg, just to find out that both the museum I wanted to visit and the interesting little […]
Looking for a certain photo, I scrolled through the folder with photos from my third ever trip to the UK, the spring when everything changed. Travelling turned out to be far easier than it seemed to me before, I fell in love with the UK all over again and I had more wanderlust and confidence than ever. On […]
