Forget about aurora borealis
category: This is average
January 29th
I ended up getting very excited last week, when I was informed with the news, that we had great possibilities of seeing aurora borealis that night, or northern lights as it’s also called. Much to my disappointment, not even the most remote area of my neighbourhood was remote enough. All I got was city lights and lights from construction sites. I did however read online the next day, that people further up north were able to see a green belt above the horizon.
Northern Norway

It might not come as a surprise, but I obviously have a huge crush on Norway. I mean, what’s not to like – have you seen how beautiful a country it is? .. Today while surfing I somehow ended up on a blog created by a french guy, currently living in Tromsø, Northern Norway. I’ve borrowed both of these amazing photos from there ; The North Way. I have yet to figure out what he’s doing there, besides taking wonderful photos of Tromsø and northen light – but that is quite frankly all I need to be entertained.
A visit to this blog also led me to a blog directory called “Expat blog” where I found all sorts of expatriate goodies. You’ll be surprised how many people reside in another country, and blogging about exactly that. Finding all these blogs is like opening a door into an entirely different blogging-universe than what I usually find – very fascinating! If you’re just as intrigued, go check out Expat blog.
An expatriate (in abbreviated form, expat) is a person temporarily or permanently residing in a country and culture other than that of the person’s upbringing.
