Summer view from the ski-jump hill in my town

Amazing! Tell us details: how much did it cost? How far away it is from your work/city center?

Actually, not "a lot" in Norwegian measures: 3.5 million NOK (+/- 351 680 USD). This is because a lot of homes/cities in Norway are located in a slight hill or at the foot of a mountain, so there is a pretty good chance of getting some kind of view. The thing I like about my current view is the different layers with green trees, water and mountains with stone and snow. The city center is 15 minutes by car, and my work is 5 minutes by car. Behind the house (behind the photographer) the landscape slowly moves upward in a slight incline, with houses and schools. Mine is at the bottom by the water.

Haha. Defenently a bit braggy.

I would too if I have a lovely home like that!

Utterly amazing! Congratulations! Incredibly jealous.

I had a friend who immigrated to the U.S from Norway. Had no idea why their family did that

This is an absolutely gorgeous view! I hope you do your fair share of gazing off into the horizon with a hot cup of coffee/hot chocolate/beverage of your choice!
