    Hi there!

    Thank you for checking my profile.

    My name is Knut, and I live on a mountain farm in Norway.

    Its quite far from the shop, and only one neighbour. But the nature here is fantastic! The view is breathe taking.

    Really its 20min to the shop, so its close enough by car.
    However, is best to remeber the things needed from the store in one go haha.


    There is alot of nature to explore in the area.

    I spend alot of my time in nature. Working with digital marketing.
    Enjoy snowboarding in winter and swimming in the summer.

    Norway has a rich Viking history. The farm is located right next to a real historical Viking grave.

    There are several in the areas.

    There is alot of nautical history in Norway, so cities like Bergen and Arendal, might be interesting to visit during your stay.
