Nordland

What do you love about where you live?

Note: I currently live in Finnmark county, but I spend most of my childhood and youth years in different places in Northern parts of Nordland county.

The Mountains of Nordland are beautiful place to be, I remember in Narvik municipality being on many outdoor school mountain trips with my classmates and other peers. Usually my classmates were bullying me a lot, but on these trips they didn’t bully me almost at all.

I loved the beaches. We had so much interesting experiences out in nature environments with our school trips and in my free time after school I spent hours alone in outside. I remember with pure ecstasy what it was like being twelve years old looking up at the clear night sky with the Northern Lights, the powerful Spirit in the Sky.

The people are open and honest, the culture of being a good student that other Northern Norwegian culture doesn’t value as highly. But to be honest it’s a difficult topics, I had really hard times living in Nordland because of my different cultural background and my still undiagnosed moderate-severe Asperger syndrome.

To end this post I’ll just say this;

I love Nordland still to this day 🇧🇻❤️❄️🫂
