Being from Oslo and coming from a high paced city with many people around you at all times, and moving to Lofoten was an adventure in its self for me to begin with. I had absolutely no intention of a long term commitment from the get go. But everyone who’s been to Lofoten knows the magic of this place.
Living in rhythm with nature is soothing, calming, grounding and helps me be in the present more. it works like a pause button, and helps me be more centered. I surf a lot, so being in the water too and riding waves, getting caught by a wave is a good analogy to life in general; you have to be able to go with it, not fight movement and change, focus on what you can control which is yourself. And being in the mountains is also like tapping into a mental super power; if you’re in a difficult phase in life, hiking to the top of a mountain looking out on the landscape you feel how small you and your problems really are. Its like you pull your focus outwards and everything seems more manageable. its medicine.
