Today in my series of (#YouTube) comments that I may some day turn into a proper blog post, #FiXatoCommentsOn @olafurw's video with Tips for a Nordic Winter:
When I tell people "it's snowing 😭", they tend to react confused: "but snow is so beautiful!".
Yeah, no, snow is a treacherous sneaky bastard. From a distance, or in the low light levels, it's hard to tell if that patch of snow will gently compact when you step on it, whether you'll sink up to your knees through it, or if it's solid. Are those threadmarks fresh, or will they make your teeth dance violently in your mouth while you vibrate up and down as you cycle over those frozen ribbed-for-no-ones-pleasure textures.
Spikes for your shoes (or better yet, shoes with permanent spikes so you don't risk losing them halfway your journey in the dark, in the middle of the snow) are excellent and worth the expense though. However, they are not much use if the ice is hidden underneath treacherous (fresh) snow, which compacts around the soles and spikes of your shoes, so now you have snow soles making contact but no grip with the slippery ice, rather than the metal nublets gripping into it...As for "oh, snow is so beautiful!": yeah, sure, the first 1 or 2 days after it has fallen. But especially in the city, that pristine white soon turns into disgusting grey-brown sludge when it mixes with mud, exhaust, and other grime as the result of people and cars moving through and past it. Which then freezes over and you'll be stuck with it for the remaining 4–6 months of winter.
Snow is beautiful, out in nature, when I have free time. Not in the city, when I have to walk for half an hour to work daily, or to the shops, to buy milk (with a little jam on the side).#FiXatoRants #snow #rant #Norway #NordicWinter #LifeInNorway

The research results, published in the journal Scientific Reports, show that Kongsfjorden acts as a natural reservoir for…

@nikface and I are off to get some sushi and #boba.
I've not been to this place before yet, but I'm excited to try it.🧋
I'll report back after.
#LifeInNorway #food -
@nikface and I got fireworks for this new year.🎉
This will be interesting😺
We also have good food and good company.
I'm so excited!
#LifeInNorway #newyear -
Ayy! Cheers to my first time getting actually drunk in #norway.🥂
@nikface and I went to https://olearys.com/no-no/boe/
We stayed until the last possible second.
The staff there are amazing, the food is good, and they keep the cocktails coming.
I even made a game out of turning off all the electric candles... and they let me!
I think I live there now.😺
The vibe is relaxed and warm.
I find it quite comforting.
I fucking love this country🤍

After telling my colleagues how efficiently #Norway deals with snow… this!! 😯 #LifeInNorway https://www.newsinenglish.no/2024/01/17/more-snow-paralyzed-public-transport/

Stopped for some food on the way home. Since I unicycled a fair bit today (41km) I felt deserved a beer but that would have gone straight to my head so this is an alcohol free beer, which was not too bad all things considered.

Who needs the Hollywood sign, we got this! 😆
-
Just trying to do my bit to #NormalisePennyFarthingCycling here in #Oslo. :penny_farthing:
Hopefully all these tourists will tell their friends this is how we all get around in Norway. 😉
-
It was raining earlier but now it's so nice outside
-
Did a little sightseeing on the way home
[I might not have cycled the most direct route home]
-
It probably didn’t help that we got a lecture from the Norwegian passport officer when leaving that we should always use EU passports within #Norway because the UK ones have third-country status, despite having Norwegian residents’ cards. Another #BrexitBenefit. 🙄 #LifeInNorway #NorExit
-
Last day in #Oslo. Mixed emotions. 🥰😢 #LifeInNorway
-
Self-portrait. #Oslo #Nøklevann #LifeInNorway

On the way in I also went up to the roof of Oslo #Operahuset again. I feel like it is a habit now. 😆
I cycled up this time (I walked previously) because it is so much easier on a #unicycle.
-
Might as well go up to the roof of #Operahuset again. 🤷
-
I decided to take another trip up onto the roof of the opera house on the way back. I took a picture from the other side this time so you can see #Oslo
-
Nice cool day and so calm in the centre of #Oslo today, so I did a little lite sightseeing on the way in and… grabbed a 🍩

Nice view from the top of #Linderudkollen

Important update: nothing is happening. #Oslo #LifeInNorway #sommerferie

I love that the Norwegian margarine factory is painted to look like a giant block of margarine. 😆 #Oslo #LifeInNorway

Stayed here for a couple of nights. Not too shabby. #LifeInNorway #Hytte #HytteTur #Oslo #Østmarka

Electricity and hot and cold running water don’t seem like luxuries until you try living without them for a few days. #HytteTur #LifeInNorway
-
Dressed optimistically for sunshine today even though the temperature outside this morning was 14°C. #LifeInNorway
-
It’s the ‘summer’ solstice and tipping it down with rain here in #Oslo. Oh well, perhaps it will reduce the risk of forest fires after an exceptionally dry spring… #LifeInNorway #SummerSolstice
-
Temperatures in #Oslo are pushing 30°C today with even hotter weather forecast for the next week. Combined with the lack of rainfall, a severe forest fire warning is already in effect. 🔥 #ClimateEmergency #LifeInNorway
-
They are testing the emergency alarm system in #Oslo today. Received simultaneous klaxon alerts from my phone and outside, which certainly alarmed me, so I guess it’s working. 😬 #LifeInNorway
