How I fell in love with Bergen 🇳🇴 NORWAY 🏔️ (travel vlog)
There's an enchantment when it comes to this place. It's like none I've ever experienced after 100s of cities, 9 years of travel and over 40 different countries.
This is for anyone who has ever found a home away from home.

Bergen first captured my heart in 2006 as a tourist. I had no idea I'd be living there six years later for 3.5 years. I miss it very much.

Wow really?! That's amazing! I hope you can go back one day, at least to visit :)
So cool to see Bergen through your eyes! Cant wait to go
I lived in Bergen for 6 years before moving elsewhere in Norway (I'm not norwegian). It was the best city I ever lived in. If it weren't for the constant rain and the fact that its placed in Norway where you can't really drive to other countries that easily i would have stayed there forever!

I am from Morocco. I love this country very much, which makes you feel like a natural and homely human being. I did research on the culture of this good people. They are truly loyal and love to live in peace. I hope to visit it before I die. I love Norway 🇳🇴🤝🇲🇦
Awesome that you're back in Scandinavia again! Love your positivity, everyone should explore the world through your eyes! As a swe-neighbor I most admit that Norway's nature is beyond beautiful, it's quite expensive though ^^ So I hope this finds you well!

Bergen is a very unique city in Norway as it has the Hanseatic influence and has been a central trading hub for centuries. Klippfisk (important ingredient in Bacalao) was landed here from the fishrrmen in the Northern part of the country and exported to Portugal, Spain etc. But the main thing that makes Bergen THE Norwegian city (at least my opinion) is its inhabitants…they have a patriotism for their city like noone else in Norway!

I was lucky enough to do a Scandinavian motorbike tour back in the 90's. We started in London, ferry to France and then up through the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and then across to Norway, all the way up North and then back down South through Sweden and lastly, retraced our steps back to the ferry and finally, the UK. Brilliant trip but very wet far too often, even for summer. Great pubs, friendly people everywhere, hospitable and very, very beautiful.
Bergen seems really lovely, and the city is pretty nice too!

I used to live in an apartment in Bergen and my window view was the exact troll that you can see at @10:41 Imagine having a troll look back at you whenever you peaked outside, lol. It's a really cool art piece with lots of details that isn't really showing when you walk by it on the street. There's a few other art walls around Bergen. The art is by professional artists that get a wall to paint their custom art on. Cool stuff. Love from Bergen.

Hi Natasha.Yes,liked your video.The cable car setup in Bergen is similar to the in Tromso in the North,where you can alternatively hike up.If you haven't been to Tromso i highly recommend that pay it a visit.I went there last year to run a Marathon and hiked up cable car mountain,at the top i looked down and the sun was shining on this cute little city.Looking to pay Bergen a visit when en route to a little town 4hrs North of Bergen called Vassenden,cant wait. Keep up the good work👍

Lovely pictures and travel vlog! "Gahl-huh-pig-ehn" I am guessing should ring correctly (with the "u" in "huh" sounding like the "u" in burn). Glad you fell in love with Bergen, it is also my favorite city. Though the weather is fickle in Norway, and perhaps especially so in Bergen, do try to come mid-May up until late August or early September. Those are the months with the best chance of seeing some sun, and perhaps even some warm weather. Holler if you need a guide. There is plenty to see in and around Bergen too, so one or two trips should not exhaust the novelty of it and its surroundings.

Glad to see you enjoy yourself in the city I was born in and currently live in. If you want really traditional mountain-walking snacks, bring oranges, Kvikklunch chocolate and a thermos flask with hot cocoa. For a longer trip, wiener sausages in another thermos with hot water mixed with "buljong". Also bread with brunost (brown cheese, yes) on some, leverpostei (liver pate) on some, fårepølse (sheepsausage) on some. Bring a bottle of Solo (similar to fanta, only more orange-ish) if you like something cold to drink. Say "hallo!" and smile to those you meet, is common both in the mountains and waving to people, while on the sea. Also ask someone for the Fjellvettreglene, the rules of mountaineering. Cause suddenly summer can turn into winter at 1000+ meters height. Most, except many seniors, talk English, and most like Americans a lot.

Wasa is also a swedish brand... though the _brunost_ is typically norwegian. (So a break even in Swe(vs)Nor? ;-) In Sweden we have something called _Messmör_ , which is also a whey product, but from cow's milk. It is not brown but a more yellow, beige(?), and while the taste is... simillar?... it is much sweeter, and with a touch of vanilla. It is a long time since I ate _brunost_ , but my recollection is that I actually liked it more than _messmör_ . So point to Nor? On a dietary note, I suspect that the _brunost_ , as the _messmör_ , is quite rich in iron. So a good boost to the hemoglobin.

Heh, don't get too attached to the city, but enjoy the nature around it! I've worked with so many people from Bergen who've told me they just had to leave the toxicity of that place. Seems like there is very little positivity for anything with the native people. Or maybe everyone leaving is much too sensitive... Well, those people fit right in here, up north!
