Reine in Lofoten — just one of many unruly fishing villages of the
wild wild Norway.
Again, I like cool places like this — not only the nature itself, but
more so because the people of those rural areas are very honest and
friendly (to the point of being blatantly blunt). They also seem to be
very connected to nature and more relaxed in relation to life in
general. The reason for this, I think, goes all the way back to the Vikings — they have always been volatile to the dichotomy of life and
death of the ocean. Although solely dependent on the
ocean for their food supply, yet one single fierce storm could wipe
out the entire male population of a village.
Yes, there's something called homesickness...
