Gudbrandsjuvet is a narrow ravine where the Valldøla River runs through. My Norwegian friend and I stopped here during the second day of our roadtrip (more on that in a later post). What a pretty picture this makes! Mountains, gushing water, red houses, green fields and trees. I don’t see how this scenery could be anyContinueContinue reading “Gudbrandsjuvet”

Post-travel blues
I’ve been back at work for three weeks now, after a wonderful holiday in Norway. I caught myself having a bit of post-travel blues.

While there is still heaps to explore on Kefalonia, I think I got a goodContinueContinue reading “Good morning and goodbye”
