☃️ Anni's Winter Wonderland ❄️

Archaeological finds indicate that people in the Nordic countries have used skis for more than 5,000 years, which shows that the old saying “Norwegians are born with skis on their feet” isn't that far from the truth.

Cross country skiing is considered Norway's national sport and it's our favourite pastime in the winter. At this time of year, the country turns into a ski paradise with a myriad of well-groomed trails - both for day time and night time skiing.

My personal favourite place to ski is where my family's cabin is located; a wonderful little place in the Norwegian mountains called Lauvåsen, close to Gålå in Gudbrandsdalen, Norway.
