Christmas in the mountains !











Im spending this christmas working at www.haukeliseter.no. its a Hotel and its a part of the norwegian tourist association that has a lot of Hotels spread out across the norwegian mountains. they are used a lot by people both in the winter and summertime and its usually possible to to daytrips between them. this mountain area has a couple of nice ski resorts and really good possibilties for randonne skiing and kitesurfing on snow ! i know the people that run www.kitesurfing.no(they have really good kitesurfing lessons) and they were kind enough to borrow me 3 cabrinha kites ! been a little unlucky with the wind but i scored one epic day with sun,powder and a stable 15-18 knot breeze !
