About me

Gender Female
Location Gjovik, Norway
Introduction I'm 31 years old and living with my husband, Kevin (and our pets) in Gjovik, Norway. I'm originally from Iowa (go Hawkeyes!) but since marrying 6 years ago, my husband's career has taken us to Chicago, upstate New York, and now Norway. We arrived in Norway in August of 2006, and are slowly becoming familiar with all things Norwegian. As for the title of my blog, although we are a little bit south of the Arctic Circle, we're still really, really far north, and sometimes it does feel like we're at the ends of the earth...I thought that "Top of the World" had a nicer, less doomsday ring to it, though!
