    We meet challenges wherever we go in this old VW T3 van, this time they came at us in Lofoten, Norway. "Don’t throw away the summer nights" is a famous saying in Norway and that is what we lived by during this trip. How can you spend time sleeping when you have so much beauty to explore? Catching up with good friends and together we found an awesome off-grid cabin by an arctic beach. What a trip!
