Red Sky at Night, Sailors' Delight

Oslo has had some really amazing sunsets in the past while. Though really the sun seems to be already setting as soon as it rises.

Jeg tenker på Bergen..når det regner.

Some pictures from my last trip to Bergen.

A Room with a View

A day of dense fog, taken around 14:00 from my apartment.

I'm in Oslo for a reason.

On most weekdays, I spend my days in libraries writing and researching my thesis.

This is the Deichmanske Bibliotek - Oslo public library.


This is the view from the library of Norges Handelhøyskole. It is in a new building in the neighbourhood of Nydalen. It is a maze of pedways, stairs, and escalators that go up four floors at a time.

Around Oslo, Part I

The interior of the Norwegian Parliament. They sit according the geographic location, not parties.

Sognsvann

One train stop after my stop (Kringsjå) is Sognsvann. It is a popular lake to walk around and swim in during the summer months.

Pious Lutherans

The skyline of Bergen is largely dominated by the dozens of churchs, which range from the ancient to the super modern.

Sandvikskirken


Bergen only has one catholic church, this one - St. Paulskirke.
