For this year’s Easter holiday, I and my girlfriend Renate visited Flåm, Norway.
Flåm is a small town located in a fjord in Hordaland county, just a few hours from our home city Bergen.

InterRail 2010 – A Travelogue
In 2010, I spent almost the entirety of October on an InterRail trip through Europe.
I recently finished documenting the entire trip in a series of blog posts, which you can find linked below.
InterRail 2010 – Part 18: Going Home
After almost a month of traveling, I was starting to get homesick.
It was starting to be more tiring than fun to move location almost every day, so Venice would be the last new place I visited on my journey.
InterRail 2010 – Part 17: Venice
After visiting Rome, I headed straight to Venice.
It is a beautiful city filled with sights unlike anywhere else.
I didn’t spend too much time here, but I did stay for the night.
InterRail 2010 – Part 16: Rome
I arrived in Rome from Pisa late one evening, and promptly rented a room for my stay.
I started exploring Rome early the next morning, and left the day after that, so I had a full day of Rome goodness!
InterRail 2010 – Part 13: Nancy
After visiting Paris, I started heading south, toward Italy.
I was going to take the train through Switzerland to get there, so I had to change trains in the French town of Nancy.
I had some time to kill before my train departed, so I decided to have a look around.

A thing I saw that really caught my attention is a sculpture I think I have identified as a World War I Moselle memorial, but I could not find anything concrete online to be sure, and I failed to get the plaque in the picture.
I like the symbolism of a golden heart atop a mass of blackened hearts, even if I fail to draw the connection to World War I.
.
I did not have enough time to see very much of the town, but what I saw seemed peaceful and beautiful, and I am glad I got to see a different side to France than just Paris before I left the country.
But just as soon as I had arrived, I was on my way to Switzerland!
