This past weekend I visited my brother and sister-in-law on their farm. And let me tell you, it’s impressive to see how much work they put into keeping their animals, as well as building a house and taking care of the fields. I helped them lay new paths, weed and prepare the rows where they will be planting potatoes. I definitely got my workout in and was quite sore the next day. My task for the weekend was collecting eggs from the henhouses and I collected around thirty eggs every afternoon. The chickens are free-range, which ment that we needed to watch them carefully a few times because there was a Hawk circling, looking for its next meal.

Just a short walk from their house is a lake called Mjøsa. After some sunbathing (for me) and swimming (for them), we checked on the bees that they keep. The bees looked healthy and had already started making honey. I also got to meet the newes batch of kittens. They are only a month old and have just started to clumsily playfight with each other. The mum cat Drops has kittens twice a year which makes it extra special to come and visit.

Today we did a plant and clothes exchange at a cafe. We had re-potted some plants yesterday and they were exchanged for other plants. I even found a dress that fits perfectly. It was quite a popular event and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Before taking the train back home, we made a last stop at a public park pictured on the right bottom corner. We’ve been so lucky with the weather these past few days and I have really enjoyed spending time outdoors.

Untill next time readers 😉
