Hello lovely people :), I hope this email finds you well. It looks like there won’t be any traveling outside of Norway for us this summer as we’re waiting to get vaccinated, so I’m going to accept that our reunion with family and friends outside of this country will need to be further postponed. I […]

The kids go to school and kindergarten, we get uninterrupted hours of work at our home office, football training is taking place again outdoors with small groups of kids, and social distancing practices. But in about 2 weeks, we reach the end of this scholastic […]

The way I see the world, the way I process my experiences in life is through words. When it comes to the deep, hard stuff, I need to write down my thoughts in order to sort them out. Reading books and writing have always acted as an anchor whenever the emotions inside of me were […]
