Mysterious Journeys in Northern Norway: Bodur's Adventures .

🏔️ Bode, a small town with a population of only 50,000, is hidden in the embrace of snow-capped mountains. It is a magical place where the sun is still high even at midnight in June. The snow-capped mountains in the city center seem to be the patron saint of the city, quietly watching everything here. 🏞️ 🎓 The university here seems to be lacking some vitality, with not many students and teachers. But it was in such a place that I met a university teacher from Belarus. We had dinner and she shared her experiences of twenty years living in Bode. 🍽️ She told me that even in winter, life here is full of fun. As long as you wear spikes, you can walk freely on the streets that are as slippery as an ice rink. 🛷 🌪️ She talked about the impact of the war, the long queues to return home, her son being born in Norway and her wish for him to have dual citizenship. But because she was worried that her son would be drafted, she decided to wait. Her optimism seems to be the unique light of those who come from developing countries. 🌟 🏞️ Lofoten, the scenery of this place makes people feel like they are in the world of "The Legend of Zelda", mysterious and beautiful. I plan to challenge here to complete two sections of hiking routes in one day, from Sørvågen to Munkebu hut, and then to Hermannsdaltind, the second highest peak in Lofoten. 🏔️ 🏞️ However, the challenge is not simple. I gave up on the final climb of Hermannsdaltind, which took 13 hours. The second section of the route was steep, unclearly marked, and almost deserted. It made me take many detours and even fall a few times on the edge of the cliff. Fortunately, I wasn't injured. This experience made me realize that sometimes it may be safer to take the path more traveled by. 😬 🌄 Although the challenge failed, the scenery of Lofoten still shocked me. In some places, I even felt the mysterious atmosphere of Alien: Prometheus. Although there were setbacks on this trip, it was more of a profound experience of nature and life. 🌅 📸 Every trip is a new discovery, every challenge is a self-transcendence. Bodø and Lofoten, these two places, allowed me to see another side of the world and made me think more about life. 🌍🧳🌟
