My Favorite Memories
By far one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve had was cruising through the fjørds in Geirangerfjord and Nærøyfjord. It was so picturesque, I felt like I was in a dream or a painting.
Walking through the Norwegian Christmas markets while drinking delicious gløgg.
Our tour bus had tire problems on Christmas, resulting in our tour group having Christmas dinner together in a 7/11. While we weren’t happy at the time, it has now become one of my favorite travel memories from this trip.
