1) The most awesome thing happening on the small screen in Norway right now is the live broadcasting of the coastal steamer Nord Norge's five and a half day trip along the coast of Norway from Bergen to Kirkenes.
It's so, so, so damn beautiful.

Hurtigruten (coastal steamer) celebrates its 100th anniversary this week. At the moment they're about halfway through their route and have almost reached Lofoten. Trust me when I say that Lofoten is the most picturesque and lovely place I've ever been. It's beyond description.

This show is also a bid to join the Guinnes' World Records. To current record holder in continuous live broadcasting is only for 13 hours.

It's broadcasted on NRK's website as well. Go watch! It's not to be missed ♥

2) Since we're talking about Norway, have my favourite song by Norwegian singer Haddy N'jie:

EDIT: If you're interested, I recommend jumping around on the map to see as the coastal steamer passed different areas. At about 2 days, 4 hours and 45 minutes, for example, they pass Torghatten.
