Before I arrived in Norway, I thought in terms of the same (mostly good) stereotypes as everyone else: soaring mountains, vast fjords and the midnight sun.
Since moving, however, I've discovered a whole new side to the country. This is a place of musk-ox safaris, of microbreweries, and arctic film festivals. It's home to awe-inspiring street art, and Michelin-starred restaurants. And, of course, a huge dollop of amazing scenery on the side too.
To discover some of Norway's lesser-known attractions, and some of what makes this country so damn special, head on over to my blog post on the JustAPack.com website.
