Have the gods come to visit the human world? This is Norway, a land filled with mysterious Norse mythology and amazing nature.

In search of the rock thrown by God, Sherak Bolton
Alesund, a city burning in midsummer
Atlantic Road, a dizzying road along the coastline
Trollstigen, the fairy ladder that you meet at 11 bends
Huite, a villa to go to for happiness

Head to southern Norway, where life blossoms in every rugged mountainous terrain, rugged coastline, and fjord valley!

Are there people living on the ‘moon’ in Norway? In Norwegian, Dal means valley. Let’s meet the people living on the moon, in the valley created by the fjord. In Norddal, a valley near Geirangerfjord, they make brown cheese (Brunost) in a traditional way. Let’s taste the brown cheese made by storing freshly squeezed goat milk in a stream that has melted glaciers and churning it for 7 hours in a small hut.

Innerisa has lived in Setesdal, a valley near Lysefjord for generations. She is busy with the hay stacking work that is only possible for five days in the summer. Innerisa spends her days busy with weeding the roof, baking traditional bread, and taking care of sheep. As it turns out, she is a successor to traditional Norwegian folk songs. We also learn traditional folk songs with Innerisa’s cheerful colleagues.

On the island of Helgoya, which has good water and good land, there is Marian who is preserving the great legacy left by her ancestors. She restored the house based on the documents left by her ancestors. She painted it with handmade wallpaper, used old furniture, and grew hundreds of kinds of fruits and flowers in the garden, recreating the atmosphere of the 19th century. We take a peek into Marian’s daily life on a summer day enjoyed in a field of blooming flowers.
