When you read this I will be somewhere on this route between the Hardangerfjord and Bergen. Hopefully enjoying the great weather, relaxing and finding my zen!
I love blogging, more because along the way you meet people that turn out to be the most cherished friends you could have. Also because it brings the world to my doorstep.
Last week when I posted my recipe of lemon and herb risotto with balsamic asparagus, I got a lovely comment from Kjersti of Sukkerungen:
I can't believe that the day after I a) bought a pack of risotto rice, wondering what to make, b) found this fantastic blog and bookmarked it, YOU decide a) to post a risotto recepie, b) to travel to my home country. It's got to be fate! The risotto looks wonderful, and I even think my kids would love this (the boy is rather picky). If you need any help when you are around Bergen, just shout and I'll be there :D
So I did shout and she was there! We have swapped email addresses and mobile numbers. We have set a date to meet with the family in Bergen.
It was Kjersti’s first time to my blog and now I feel a friendship developing. In the few mails we managed to exchange before I left, I saw so many parallels.
So folks I’ll be out of office for another week. Hope you are hanging in there without me!
Hugs!

I love reading your blg entries...sometimes they take me to a distant and wonderful place...I thought of leaving a comment since a long time...but finally, better late than never, let me thank you for posting the wonderful receipes and the heartwarming stories...good luck on your trip...
It is going to be tough to not see your around, but I comfort myself with the thought that you will bring home so many awesome pictures....I can wait(Nina says whille tapping her foot!!)
oh fun Meeta! I love Norway and we travelled almost the same route some time ago, it's beautiful!
(As a matter of fact we'll be on our way to Oslo in a week, travelling up and sideways to Sweden, save some of the good weather for us please)
safe travels!! and what fun!
Oh fun!! Have a splendid journey, Meeta! Can't wait to hear all about your adventures and see your beautiful photos. :-)
Our friends have just returned back from Norway and totally fell in love with the country and the people (not so much with the prices over there) Have a great time and take loads of photos!!
Awww that's sooo nice! I hope you're having a blast :) Norway is one of my fave places in the world! I actually wrote a "country report" on it in 7th grade and became obsessed. So for high school graduation, my parents took me there. We took a tour from Oslo to Bergen and I am just dying to go back :)
Can't wait to hear about your experiences!

Hope you guys are having a fab time. Have a safe vacation. xo
I know what you mean, it's funny now to think of all the blogging friends who I have around the world that I could look up no matter where I went!
Hope you are having a wonderful time!
Well, we met in Bergen yesterday, and had a wonderful evening together over dinner :) Meeta and her family are just wonderful people, and me, my husband and kids had so many laughs, and just couldn't stop talking. It was like meeting friends that you haven't seen for a long time :) I think we could have kept talking for hours and hours all seven of us! What a wonderful idea to meet, and so fun to be a bit spontaneous :)
Meeta, just found your blog and I love it!
:)
I love comments like that when you realize why you love blogging even more!
You back yet chica? Hope you are having a WONDERFUL time! xoxo
Oh Meeta, you know that good things happen to good people, and fabulous things happen to fabulous ones! So, you know that you deserve this little sprinkle of serendipity! Enjoy your trip!

Wow, I wish I was travelling across Norway. Luckily I will be visiting Prague during a swift tour of Europe next month... So its not all bad. The recipes look great! So I'll be sure to give one a try before I depart on my travels, keep us posted on how you get on!
