From the prairie to the fjords (with a few stops along the way.)

I'm 31 years old and living with my husband, Kevin (and our pets) in Gjovik, Norway. I'm originally from Iowa (go Hawkeyes!) but since marrying 6 years ago, my husband's career has taken us to Chicago, upstate New York, and now Norway. We arrived in Norway in August of 2006, and are slowly becoming familiar with all things Norwegian. As for the title of my blog, although we are a little bit south of the Arctic Circle, we're still really, really far north, and sometimes it does feel like we're at the ends of the earth...I thought that "Top of the World" had a nicer, less doomsday ring to it, though!

Beautiful! That camera was a magnificent B-day gift for you---Kevin rocks!
Happy belated birthday, Emily; I hope you had a wonderful day. Fueled by choco-chip pancakes, I'm sure you had a great day! :-)
BTW, I'm late in commenting on your "Napoleon complex" post but I wanted to say that my husband and I sometimes have that same impression of Norway. No offense to your Norwegian readers, of course! And, to be fair, at least Norway doesn't start wars to prove how great it is... (uh, is that too political? sorry...)

Vic, thanks, I think I'll keep him!
Michele, thank you, and good point...I'm a much bigger fan of the world's best strawberries than of the world's fastest missiles! Emily
