When we arrived in Oslo, the weather forecast announced that we would have a sunny day and a rainy day during our stay in Norway’s capital. Ever the brilliant organisers we decided we would cleverly visit all the outside sights on the sunny day, and the inside sights on the rainy day.
And even though we have had our fair share of the weather forecast being completely wrong at times, this time everything went according to plan!

Portrait of the Artist at Work by @artboy11211
I’ve been very much enjoying Instagram since it was released onto Android in 2012, and have discovered a great many fine artists on the platform. So I was delighted when the opportunity to interview one of my favourite Instagrammers arose. And with nearly 40,000 Instagram followers, I’m not alone when it comes to enjoying his work.

Remember when I was all like “We’re going on an adventure around Europe with Eurail and HostelBookers!”?
Well, that adventure is now over, and what a lot of fun we had. From the moules and frites of Belgium to the snow swept streets of Oslo, we managed to take in seven countries in 21 days, which was a lot of fun.

The only encounter I’ve had with leeches, prior to my trip to Khao Sok National Park in Thailand, was in Australia of all places. Friends and I were visiting the Barrington Tops National Park, a range of mountains on the east coast, a couple of hundred kilometres north of Sydney. They are supposed to be rather beautiful.

There are definitely more comfortable places to sit than on Hans Christian Andersen’s left knee. On top of that, instead of telling me a story out of the book that is resting on his right knee, he is staring over to the Tivoli, the famous theme park, completely ignoring me.

Getting into boat based trouble is something that you would by now think I am a little bit used to, particularly after that Seychelles based boat adventure I told you about.
You might assume that as a result of that, any boat based adventure I decide to undertake, however short it is supposed to be, might involve me doing a little bit of fore planning, such that I won’t end up sitting in the baking sun, at the wrong end of an enormous man made reservoir, with no sun cream or water to speak of, in a boat whose engine firmly refuses to start.
