An Arctic Home Companion - Life in Northern Norway
2 videos • 37 views • by Arctic Nature Experiences A regular podcast dealing with life in Northern Norway in a humorous and educational way. With the catchphrase "Well, it has been a week with bad weather in my home town Tromsø, Norway" the program starts a journey to the far north and the issues and mishaps of the people living on the edge of civilisation. And thanks to the support of the regular sponsor The Norwegian Snow Shovel Association (We Dig For Spring) the listeners are updated on all kinds of paraphernalia needed for life above the Arctic Circle. For all Americans with a connection to Norway this will be an eyeopener on life "back there" and why one million Norwegians decided to emigrate to the USA in old times. If you think "Minnesota nice" is strange then the stories from the north will make you understand the origin of that condition. How else could you survive a long dark winter in a wild and lonely place in the north? Your host is "Ant" - an introverted Norwegian who finds pleasure in telling tall tales from the Arctic and giving his unique perspective on all issues connected to bad weather and that eternal longing for just one nice day with sunshine!
