NORWAYS NATIONAL DAY

8a0f5f420cd4e963385336b18db0272a

Today we have celebrated the National Day of Norway. The 17th of May.
It´s an amazing celebration and if you ever take the trip here..you should come in May.
It´s an experience you´ll never forget ;) This year I celebrated the day at home with my family. It was an relaxing day with not even a drop of champagne. But I exchanged it with tons of ice cream and cake!
I love this day and I love my country!

This week I have started in the studio recording my new record! FINALLY! It feels really good :) I have also been so lucky to get two amazing producers , Thom Hell and Even Ormestad. They really know how to take care of my songs. It so great to hear how they grow with every instrument and every harmony recorded. I can´t wait for you all to hear it. Hopefully by the end of the year..
(depending on what country to leave in that is..) :)

Yesterday I drove to Voss in Norway to sing at the opening for their new “wind tunnel”. They somehow managed to talk me into trying it and I am so happy they did! It was so much fun! So if you ever come to Norway you should really make the trip to Voss. It´s beautiful there and they are known for their extreme sports.
