This is Norway for me!

This is what I associate with the word Norway. According to me this word means high, steep mountains, a lot of big, green forest and many blue fjords. Norway has a beautiful nature in my point of view. I understand why tourists come here to see the country. Even in the summer you can see a little snow on the top of the mountains. I consider that is one of the things which are special about Norway. Some places like in the picture above the mountains and the fjord are located right next to each other, which I believe is very unique and beautiful.

I like living in Norway, and I am sure I am not the only one who appreciate it. Most of the people living her have enough money to survive, despite this, there are always exceptions. For instance you can see beggars on the street like you see in other big cities as well. Some of the things I think is especially great about Norway is that we have free school and free health care. In many other countries like for example USA, going to the hospital costs money. In addition many kids and teenagers in other countries do not get free school and an education which we in Norway do. Two other things which I consider good are the human rights and the equality. Those two things are way worse in other countries for instance Syria and Afghanistan. As a result I will say that living in Norway is great and that we are lucky living her!

  1. That's dope that you live you in a gorgeous country. My name is Ina Parrent and I'm from Scottsbluff, Nebraska of the Untied States of America. I was just wondering how frightened are you of the volcanoes? When the last time one erupted? How many people have died overall? Even though its a really nice country wouldn't you be afraid of the destruction from the all the volcanoes erupting around you? Don't get me wrong I'm sure your country is legit, i just don't know anything about it.

    1. Thank you for taking time to comment on my blog! Maybe you have read wrong or misunderstood, cause in Norway there are no volcanoes. The blog-post above is about the volcano in Ecuador, so I am not afraid.

    1. No problem! We spend about 6 and a half hour per day at school, from 8.30 AM to 03.00 PM. Besides we have 199 schooldays in a year and it's ca. 10 months.
