When we heal the Earth, we heal ourselves.
Most of us have heroes or people they look up to in life. For me, it is mostly people who lead the way towards a more green, beautiful and sustainable future. Ever since I discovered Simon Dale with his self-built hobbit house in 2007, he’s been the kind of person I highly admire, and I …

Camping with a newborn can seem like a bit of a challenge, but I want you to know it can actually be a wonderful experience, not that much more stressful than staying at home. But let’s be fair, I must admit we ended up more like glamping than camping 😉 Remember, the baby just need …

It’s that time of the year again! The first flowers are popping up, the first leaves are springing out, the birds are chirping all around and everything is just about to turn green. It is the time of Beltane, or as we call it here in the north, Valborg. For us it is a good …
I attended a course this spring where we foraged wild edibles in nature, and then cooked with it. I think it all looks like fairy food, especially when decorated with edible flowers! Highly recommend to join similar courses or workshops in your area, there are always more to learn 🙂 Wood anemones (not edible, mildly …

NÃ¥ er høsten her for fullt, og det kan en soppentusiast som meg lett like! For soppsesongen er vanligvis langt pÃ¥ gang pÃ¥ denne tiden, og da er det svært sannsynlig at mange av mÃ¥ltidene bestÃ¥r av nettopp sopp. I Ã¥r er det derimot ikke like mye sopp Ã¥ finne, kanskje kan det ha med …
NÃ¥r jeg skal ha ferie og faktisk prøve Ã¥ slappe av, sÃ¥ innebærer det som oftest hagen, katter, magiske alvelys, hygge rundt bÃ¥let og vakker musikk. Vi har utrolig nok klart Ã¥ fÃ¥ til noen slike dager i sommer, og jeg mÃ¥ si det har vært godt. Denne sommeren har vi ikke reist sÃ¥ mye …
It is not often it happens, but sometimes, summer feels just right! Life in the deep fjords of western Norway is lush, green and mild, but it comes at a price. We do have quite a lot of rain, and sometimes wind. Sometimes it rains constantly for weeks, but usually the weather is rather diverse, …
HÃ¥per dere alle koser dere med sommer ^^ Her hos oss er det fortsatt noksÃ¥ kaldt og vÃ¥tt, etter en kald og vÃ¥t vÃ¥r. Jeg klager ikke da, det var kun en nøytral observasjon. Her er et fint sitat som jeg prøver Ã¥ leve etter: “She enjoys rain for its wetness, winter for its cold, …
We went to this stunningly beautiful place just a short drive from home, to have a hike during this perfect spring day. My brother was visiting and we had an excuse to go on a little adventure and just enjoy the sun and the fresh air. I just love how beautiful the mountains and the …
