Goofing around Ålesund!

  • Ålesund was technically the final city-stop of our Norway Road Trip in 2019.
    When people said Norway is always gloomy and wet, we didn't really feel it ourselves until we stopped over at Ålesund.
    Weather conditions changed instantly and it is almost impossible to predict. Well, considering the fact that we were there in May, the weather was pretty much expected.
    And as usual, we found it really hard to get dinner even at 6-ish in the evening. Being born and bred in a vibrant and bustling city like Singapore, it was a real challenge for us.
    To make matters worse, the experience of staying with our hotel, Scandic Ålesund was appalling. Honestly. other than the gym, there isn't really much to feel elated over.

    I often don't comment on UA-cam videos, but this one I had to. You guys look so used to blogs in this video, it was so natural, the quality and the editing so good and clean that I was surprised when I went tk the channel to see the second part and saw that the channel doesn't have thousands and thousands of subscribers. I loved the video, I will be moving to Alesund in a close future, and coming from a big city like São Paulo I can feel the same as you guys when everything is closed arround 6pm, so strange to have to adapt to a schedule for things like going out to eat, when you are used to literally go out and eat whatever you want at any time. Keep going the good jobs guys. Whise you the best

      Hey Gabriel, thank you for your kind words. It was my first time trying to vlog and there couldn't a better place to start than Norway. It was a shame that we didn't have enough time to really explore Alesund due the weather, plus we were really drained from all the driving. Hope I can really do this more often when the pandemic is over. In the meantime, let's all stay safe and hope you will find a new wonderful life in Alesund!

    Norwegians buy sparkling water because they drink normal water from their own tap :)

    I don't understand why you complained about view in yoour room. Because if someone come like tourist he/she will not live in room. Tourists will spend time outside, so view is important exactly zero. Room is only fir sleeping over night. 😜😜😜
