CultureShock! Norway welcomes you to the land of the Vikings, where fjords, mountains and the sky embrace you with their vast expanse and beauty. This book brings you on a journey through the amazing wonderland of Norwegian customs, food, landscapes and people. Here, you will learn to meander among the cobbled streets of cities that have the most modern museums and restaurants, take bus journeys along mountain roads lined with walls of snow and enjoy a break at a mountain lake in its splendid solitude, pick wild blueberries on mountain walks, fish in salmon rivers, enjoy the taste of lightly salted cod and learn that Norwegian food is not just milk, bread and potatoes! You will discover how Norwegians live in harmony with nature, cherish the environment and value people. And you will find yourself wanting to stay!
Elizabeth Su-Dale visited Norway, saw the lights of Norwegian homes in the autumn dusk and fell in love. Her appreciation of Norway has grown over the years since she first visited the country in the late 1970s. She has lived in Norway for close to four years at a stretch and sporadically for months, working on projects with startups and the University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim. Elizabeth loves the fjords and mountains, and has worked at UNEP/GRID-Arendal, south of Oslo. She has experienced giving birth to her fourth child in Norway, being rushed down the mountain to the ferry point with a ferry captain in waiting! The first Norwegian song she learnt was "Ja, vi elsker dette landet", Norway' s de facto national anthem. She has heard birdsong in a mountain pine forest, basked in the Nordic morning light and felt the magic of life and nature, making her a captive of Norway, a country she calls her second home.
