I was going to change my shirt but instead I changed my mind.
The first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it.Norway smells green and lush....It's "down to earth" pulse is everywhere.I have my ship And all her flags are a flyin' -CSNY
Most countries are designed not to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable. As Tom Waits said "No one speaks English and everything is broken" Norway, however, makes everyone feel like a naturalist. Its beauty and mystery and power and vulnerability, the wilderness as therapy. The trees, the fresh air--what's deeply personal is universal. It speaks to everyone in a slang that rolls up its sleeves, and whose silence is golden.
