Growing up as a Third Culture Kid

In today’s day and age, our world is becoming more globalised by the second. There are more people travelling, exploring, living and working in foreign countries than ever before and inter-racial families are on the rise. There’s an increase of families taking life on the road and raising their children in cultures different to their own. These kids are more commonly known as Third Culture Kids (TCK). Some people don’t even realise that they fall into this category (I didn’t, until recently) and in case you don’t know me personally, I’m a TCK too!

Budget Guide: London

I’m a sucker for budget friendly destinations. My main reason for keeping my distance for the longest time was purely the cost of travel. I know what you’re about to say… “But Caroline, you’re from Norway… Surely London isn’t THAT expensive”. You’re right except I prefer to stretch my dollar as much as I possibly can. To be honest with you, I didn’t realise how many budget friendly options there was! London isn’t the typical backpackers destination but there’s something about the city that draws me in, repeatedly – asides from the British accent and beautiful men, obviously.

Ah yes. Scuba diving is such a beautiful thing. A friend, Storm, introduced me to the wonderful underwater world back in 2011.

Take on the Challenge of Hiking Kjeragbolten in Norway

This Instagram famous rock is not for the fate hearted, wedged between two cliffs, it sits about 1100m above Lysefjord. Kjeragbolten attracts base jumpers, paragliders and adrenaline fuelled hikers keen to stand on the boulder. Although a popular hike, it is considered one of the more challenging treks around the area because of the steep faces. Located about a 2-hour drive from Stavanger, there are tour buses (Tide Reiser) to take you there or alternatively, you can drive during the hiking season – when the roads are open.
