Østmarka

The first outing to nature in Norway. I am not scared to be by myself as it’s an easy trail just outside town, and it’s the Locals “must do” on weekends, so I reckon there will be people out there.
The trails are like a spiderweb and I don’t know where to start and where to end. Before the forest, a thick layer of wheat makes my heart beat as it reminds me of my upbringings. I follow my instinct, which drives me to a flat rock and I sing a lullaby to the ptarmigans until they reply with a shrill cry.
I then decide to follow the peninsula corners instead of my instinct, and I get to a majestic old barn turned into a café. Boho chic place with pink armchairs and high ceilings, feeling like at a “non birthday” party of Alice in Wonderland.Okumaya devam et
