Win a Trip to Norway, Your Way!
Visit Norway is holding a competition for five people to win a 10 day trip, all expenses paid, to Norway. To enter just submit a photo, story, blog, poem, song, etc – anything “media” – that is inspired by Norway and its values, onto the Norway. Your Way pages . The prize is a bit of a mystery – ‘all expenses’ but no definites and it sounds like you are expected to document your Norwegian adventure for the rest of us to read/see. Unfortunately there is always a catch – only those from Germany, the UK, Russia, Italy and France are allowed to enter. However, if you are not from one of these countries you can still visit Norway. Your Way and vote for your favourite media entry. The competition closes on the 19th July 2010, so you better hurry!
Lykke til!

Norway enters the Christmas season early.
A popular Summer activity in Norway is kayaking. The coast of Norway is dotted with thousands of little islands making the perfect conditions for a smooth paddle.
The sun never goes down during this season but the mountains to the East are so high that the sun still has to raise above them in the morning hours and an artificial dawn-effect wakes the city.
Tonight’s sky was filled with the Northern Lights.
Many English words actually come from old Norse language – brought by Vikings to England in medieval times. Here are some words you have probably uttered without realising you are speaking Norwegian!
skade! I’m from Poland and I can’t take a part in competition – it;s not a good news for me this day
Too bad as I would love to enter but I live in the US. However, I will visit the site and vote.
Blessings,
Debbie

I was a little miffed too that only people from five countries were allowed to apply.
Hi there, the competition if goes well will roll out to other countries later. There are truly a lot of interesting entries there. Some films, animations and cartoons are really cool. I just enjoy them so much. The 5 winners will be presented in 2 weeks. Gonna be interesting to see what’s next!
