Hello From Tropical Norway - Upcoming Cabin Trip
This is a headline I thought I'd never write. But it's actually tropical here in Norway right now.
I love sunny weather and warmer days during spring, but these last weeks have been insane.
It's actually breaking 60 year-old records of temperature and we are all quite scared that this is the summer we get.
Here is a picture of me trying to hold it together at a work event some days back.
30 degrees Celcius outside, 40 degrees indoors.

Notice my shiny forehead? Not a coincident.
We had a whopping 30,3°on the 31st of May.
While on the 2nd of May the temperature was 4,5°. So you can probably understand that we are a bit surprised by the nice weather here on the west coast.
Oslo, the Norwegian captial has actually been even hotter and sunnier. And it's safe to say that I think we are going to payback from Mother Earth later this summer.
Up this weekend: A trip to our lovely summer house in the fjords. I promise to share som pictures. They'll probably include BBQ-ing, fishing and relaxing.
As you can tell from the smile in the picture: I am happy in my new job, and I also like having coworkers. Do I miss running my own company? For sure, but I welcome change and I think it's healthy to uproot your life every once in a while.

Du får ha god tur til hytta, @susanne! Varmen er jo nesten uutholdelig nå om dagen, men jeg også frykter at dette er alt vi får, så da er det ikke annet å gjøre enn å prøve vårt beste å nyte den, til tross for at det er fem grader varmere enn vi gjerne ønsker oss :)
Wow! That's insanely hot for Scandinavia... and still so early in the year. Well, stay cool out there. Or at least try to...

Hyggelig dere har det fint på vestlandet også da. Koker her på Gjøvik i hvertfall og merker produktiviteten på hjemmekontoret daler (så lenge jeg ikke har kniven på strupen). Sitter for det meste og drikker iskald bris og glaner ut i lufta og venter på geniale ideer skal ramle ned. Kos deg på hytta i helgen, det blir sikkert nydelig!
Mange takk for innlegget om tropevarme her på Vestlandet.
Du minner oss om å verdsetja finvêret som me har hatt glede av nesten heile mai.
Sjølv om temperaturen var kjølig dei første dagane av mai månad, så har sommaren jaga vekk det kjølige vêret og me har hatt tidenes mai vêr i år med rekordtemperaturar.
Onsdag 30. mai sette Etne i Sunnhordland ny månadsrekord for Norge med 32.7 grader. Det er kjempevarmt. Så det er nok Vestlandet som har norgesrekorden for temperatur i mai.
For første gong tok eg eit sjøbad så tidleg som i mai månad. Det skjedde i går og temperaturen i sjøen på Furuneset i Rubbestadneset var heile 20 grader.
Ein heilt fantastisk sommar me har hatt no i mai, og spesielt på Vestlandet.
Med vennleg helsing

wow ! the weather is increasingly getting hotter @susanne ! Here in Kelowna its been normal this past week and a bit rainy 22 degrees or so. but last week we also were over 30 degrees ! Every summer just gets hotter and dryer here in Brithish Columbia Canada , and we worry most about forest fires which we get a lot of every year! Stay safe and use lots of sunscreen. thanks for sharing!✌👍👌🌞🌞🌞🌞
