Hi! This video features a book called «Min kamp». (It means «My struggle») It’s a bestselling Norwegian book by Internationally renowned author Karl Ove Knausgård. It has NOTHING to do with Adolf Hitler’s book «Mein Kampf». Hope you enjoy the video, and have a nice day! 😀
Thank you for your videos. They bring the ultimate feeling of coziness 😍Could you please recommend your favorite Norwegian authors or the books you consider worth mentioning? Cheers from Eastern Europe, Georgia 😍
Thank you for the video and the reading recommendation. Both of them are very interesting, and I have just searched to get one of the author's books. Thank your very much.
Bergen is beautiful and very wet😅. Love the colours of the buildings. Someone at work asked me the other day if I had plans to go abroad in summer. I replied Oslo!!
Wonderful video 😊 glad that you had a good end of the year and a good new year. We had a good holiday season...but caught a bad cold the day after Christmas...so new year's was quiet, but we are finally better. 🐾💖🥳🥰Happy 2025 to you, Mochi and Mr J. Hugs to you all.
Dziękuję, że pokazałeś nam Bergen swoimi oczami. Architektura miasta jest przepiękna, na pewno promienie słońca tak rzadko przebijające się między budynkami dodają im jeszcze magii. Port również ma nieprzeciętny urok. Uwielbiam Twoje poczucie estetyki 😊 Serdeczne pozdrowienia z Polski 🤗🇵🇱
Oh my goodness! How you and Mochi and Mr J were missed! And how happy I am that you’re back! The Bergen-focused video was great with some beautiful old jazz and city walks. It highlighted some features that distinguish Bergen from Oslo, like the narrow, labyrinthine walkways between houses and the architecture of the small wooden houses, AND the never-ending rain! Very interesting and charming city. But, I liked the part of the video best where you returned to your flat with Mochi and Mr J. That’s when I felt like the world was once again spinning on the right axis. Thank you for telling us about the book you’re reading and making the author recommendation! I hope you’ll continue to make book recommendations for us readers!
My smile was so big when I read your beautiful comment, ending with how the world was again spinning on the right axis when I can home to Mochi and Mr. J! I really felt this when I came home!
I love the atmosphere your filming, choice of gentle music and thoughtful words provoke - sprinkled with HRH Princess Mochi, just a wonderful time-out experience! Thank you!
You ask the profound question of where and what “home” is and then find the answer at the end, just like a satisfying read. I feel a little more familiar with Bergen, seeing it through your eyes. It is such a storybook town, like a perfect diorama of a seaside city that has been around a long time. So charming, the narrow stone-paved streets! You say Karl Ove “writes very well about what it’s like to be human.” Well, dear man, in your pictures and insights, so do you. 🥰
Hi again friend, and thanks for your very kind words! Happy you liked Bergen. You are right, it does have a storybook feel to it. Definitely. I appreciate it more now that I don't see it every day.
Bergen looks so beautiful and cozy…❤❤ Hamburg is also a very rainy city. And it happens the same here when it is sunny: we all rush outside to enjoy it (if we are not working, of course 😂😂) and the mood of the whole city and the people changes drastically. I live between two countries 3000 km apart. After more than 13 years in this situation you feel you don‘t belong anywhere. When I travel to my home city in Spain, I know the buildings, the streets, etc. but I feel somehow disconnected. When I go back to Germany it feels exactly the same. It is a very weird feeling…for me Home is where my husband and friends are and that is Hamburg. For now 😅 By the way, Happy New Year to the three of you. Happy to have you back.🥳🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing! I love to hear about other people's view on what home is. I know Hamburg is very rainy, I have a friend who is from that city, he has told me 😅 Ultimately, I agree with you. The city itself is secondary to what is most important: That the people you love are there with you. Happy new year to you and your family, dear friend ❤️
I loved seeing all the narrow streets and picturesque, wooden houses. I'm sure it's always good to visit family and spend time with old friends. And the harbor... Thanks for such a lovely, quiet showing of your home town. Hi to Princess Mochi and Mr. J. I know you missed them while you were in lovely Bergen!
I often ponder the same questions: what is home, where is home? For me, I think home is love - both where I am loved and where I love. As such, home has changed throughout my life. My childhood village is, as you describe so well, like a story tale; a place where identity was formed. The city where I live now is where I have chosen to live, to love, and be loved; and it is the place I have grown into and where I am my true self. Thanks so much for your wonderful perspective on life, and for sharing your lovely family with us ❤
Such a great post and loving the rain (and the sound of it); as a Brit living in LA it’s one thing I miss (and we could really use some at the moment)!
Home is any place where you have put down roots. Over a lifetime, you can have many homes. I'm currently living in a place to which I feel no connection. It will never be a home to me. That's why I so enjoy escaping to other, more attractive places, and your videos are a favorite. Your camera work is simple but artful, and your music choices capture and enhance the mood so well. I came for the sweet dog but am glad I stayed for your lovely stories. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for showing Bergen. It is one of the places I love so much! My youngest daughter was in Norway for 18 months. When she came back to the USA, we went to Norway in August, 2018. Bergen was one of the places we stayed. We got an AirBnB on the outskirts of the City of Bergen and we took the tram(?) to go places. It was raining cats and dogs the days we went to Bergen, but it in the afternoon, it stopped raining. Norway is so beautiful, and hopefully soon my husband and I will go visit Norway again.
I’m from USA and I really love your channel. I especially like simple day activity, simple meal preparation, and of course, Mochi. When you spend extended time on street scenes (like this one) my mind starts to wander. I also read extensively but don’t enjoy strong presence of recommendations that may not be what I would be drawn to.
Oslo is modern while Bergen with its cobbled street narrow lanes and pretty colourful houses has its old world charm... That book I will read in future as I too love to read and have a small home library. ..at the end when you returned home with Mochi greeting you that's the sweetest part ! The Bergen depiction in your hallway looks so good... Enjoyed the hometown tour of yours !!!! See you next week !
Bergen is beautiful. I like coastal towns, cities and rain as I grew up in a coastal city with lots of rain and I now live on the other side of the world with snow. Home to me is not just one place. Home is the place where I grew up and home is also the place where I have settled - 2 different countries in 2 different continents. Seeing Mochi greet you was precious. It brought a smile to my face. I will look for Karl Ove Knausgaard's novel in English as I like autobiographies. Have a good weekend!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on home. I like hearing other people's views (and stories). Hope you enjoy Knausgaard's biography series if you go for it!
Привет ребята и милая Моти. У нас снова ютуб зависал, а тут просто включила, а он работает и сразу ваше новое видео увидела. С удовольствием прогулялась с вами по вашему родному Бергену, очень впечатляет. Люблю с вамии Моти погулять, поесть с вами вкусняшку, а потом отдохнуть. Счастья вам добра и всех благ в Новом году. Мы всегда с вами.😊😊😊
Even though there are so many rainy days, it still looks beautiful, and I would like to visit it. I love when you shoot videos in Bergen, the city has a special charm, with all those colorful houses and beautiful buildings. I hope you had a nice holiday! Nice to see a new video again! 😊
Good to see you, Mochi and Mr B are back and glad you got to spend some time in your hometown with friends and family. I love Bergen, even in the rain! Best wishes to you all❤🦴🦴
Living in Tokyo, away from my family, I often ponder the idea of “home” too. I feel at home here in Japan after many years, but I know that my other “home” still exists with my family back in my country. 🤍☔
Hi guys, you were missed a lot! I enjoyed every second of your video because your content about Bergen is always my favourite. It makes me feel like I have to visit Bergen immediately. The saying about the weather and the clothes is also common in Germany I guess because my French teacher used to say it to us too and I absolutely agree. You have to be able to enjoy the rain as well as the sunny days. Thanks for your nice captures of Bergen once again, I love it! I also thought about the question where home is and I think that it is the place where your beloved ones are. I would like to be able to visit my family and friends frequently but there are in Germany and I’m in Istanbul. So it’s not so easy to manage it. That’s why I’m questioning the feeling of being home. I miss my quiet life and family a lot so I try to visit them twice a year. The last scene of your video was adorable. What a wonderful sunset 🌅 Thanks for your heartwarming video and wise words. Wish you guys a happy new year and all the best ❤ Muuuuuch love and a very big hug from Istanbul ❤
Hi dear friend, it's comforting to hear that other people also reflect on the topic of home. It can be more difficult when the two homes are in different countries like in your case. It takes not only time, but money to travel back and forth. But in the end, I guess we should be grateful to love more than one place. It is a blessing. Big hugs from Oslo to Istanbul ❤️
I love looking at those charming buildings in Bergen, your nostalgic home town. Even a narrow street is picturesque. Thank you & Happy new year to you☺️
Thank you for another wonderfully cozy video. The way you tell your stories in these videos always puts me into a dreamy mood. And also thank you for so much kindness streaming from every episode! It is so important now the world's gone that harsh. ❤
What a stunning city! Its position, climbing the hills, the red roofs, cobblestones and narrow alleyways and of course gorgeous houses. Thanks for the visit and I agree with you, based on this video, Bergen wins. 😉
Hola!! Soy Argentina, estuve viendo tus videos, me han atrapado, debo decirte que es maravilloso ver la otra parte del mundo desde tus videos...GRACIAS!! Sabes tengo un primo viviendo alli en Noruega, amo el clima de tu ciudad, quisiera vivir alli...donde vivo hace mucho calor y no me gusta, en estos momentos estamos en verano, con mucho calor y tormentas de verano, no me gusta el calor 😢 Debo felicitarte por transmitirme el concepto de hogar, tengo sensaciones similares cuando me acoge la nostalgia de mi ciudad natal....ya no estoy en ella, pero mi hogar es donde estoy yo y mis hijos... Disfruto ver a tu bella princesa, me llena de amor, gracias por compartir, les envio un fuerte abrazo y los esperare con ansias....❤
Hello and thank you so much for your kind comment! I hope your cousin enjoys his life in Norway. It takes some getting used to because the weather here in northern Europe can be very rough, especially in winter.
@introvert-and-dog gracias por responder, sos muy amable... Y si ya se acostumbro, lleva muchos años viviendo allí, que alegria me da saber que en esa parte del mundo es tan acogedora...gracias por tu aporte a la vida, eres especial y celebro esta vivencia a travez de tus videos...abrazo de una argentina!!
This vlog was quite relaxing with the rain and walking and those beautiful homes and narrow alleyways,so romantic 😊 Mochi always make me happy happy happy🤗🤗
Hello guys! Your videos are a breeze of fresh air! Thanks for sharing a bit of your routine with us! Have a lovely weekend ahead! Much love from Brazil!
A home more than a physical space is a feeling. A place that is the extension of the self, the connection between "who we are" and "where we are". And the arms of the person we love sweetly surrounding us, also makes us understand that this is our home regardless of where in the world we are. And where a sweet being like Mochi, welcoming us with the same joy even when we cross the front door a hundred times in a row, that is also a feeling of home. Thanks a lot Mr. I for allowing us to reflect on the meaning of the word "home" while you toured Bergen, that beautiful city that seems to have been built to the measure of a fairy dream. Welcome Mr. I to my home, you and your lovely family were greatly missed. Btw: there is also a book "A death in the family", winner of the Pulitzer Prize, by the American writer James Agee. Sooo good.
You know human nature so well, to formulate beautiful comments like this, dear friend. Thank you for the book tip- I will definitely look up this book!
Ficaria horas só olhando a arquitetura das casas de Bergen. Dá uma sensação tão boa ❤ acho que a chuva combina com essa cidade. E ler também é tudo de bom nessa vida. Obrigada pelo vídeo ❤
Bergen ist eine wunderbare Stadt.Als Wir dort waren , schien die Sonne und wir sind mit der Seilbahn auf Floyen gefahren.Von dort hat man einen wunderbaren Blick auf die Stadt.Und ich liebe die kleinen, bunten Holzhäuser in Norwegen. 😍 Vielen Dank für das schöne Video.
Нарешті маємо нове чудове відео! Я люблю дощ, дощові дні і дощове місто. Влітку дощ пахне квітами, травою і мокрою землею..а восени опалим прілим листям і мокрою корою дерев..І завжди дощ то спокій і чистота! Дім там, де нам затишно, тепло і приємно, де ми можемо розслабитися і спокійно відпочити. Дуже зворушливий момент зустрічі Мочі зі своїм татком😊 Чекаю наступне відео!)
Hermoso el McDonald's parece más una iglesia que un lugar de comida rápida 😂 pero que genial que mantengan la armonía de tu bella ciudad natal. Cariños para los tres y muy feliz nuevo año ❤🎉 🐕
Hello introvert. I was very happy to see the pictures of your hometown. It is very beautiful. I don't like rain very much but I love snow. But I imagine that you are used to its climate since you were born and lived there for several years. I read a only book by the author you mentioned this summer. In Italian they translated it La stella del mattino. I don't know the title in Norwegian. I think I would like to live in Norway because even though I am Italian I don't like chaos. But I love silence, discretion and respect for other people. Maybe because like you I am an introvert. A big hug and I await the next video. A kiss to mochi
Happy New Year to you and your family. I love the rain too and we just had two days of snow which is unusual in my town in the southern US. Thank you for the very cozy video.
So happy to see a new video. I didn’t watch it immediately because I just wanted to savour knowing it was there and watching it when life was quieter. I’m such a weirdo lol.😂. Bergen is so picturesque. Nice to visit your hometown! Happy New Year🎉
I watch your videos over and over, before going to work to add a touch of magic to my day, after work for the peace they bring me, while creating to be inspired by the beauty of Oslo (and Bergen), to enjoy your simple pleasures, and above all to see your beautiful little Mochi!
So Bergen has literally nearly the same weather as here. More rainy days than sunny days, just the sort of rain differs. One gets used to it. As we always say, time to grow back the webbed membranes. There is a melancholic fondness thinking about former hometowns. I visit mine from time to time and really would like to live there again. But it changed. Too many tourists and one hell of expensive place to rent or buy. It is a bit sad. I am stuck here and the parts of my family left behind - at my former home town, are now all gone. But I still like it better there, mountains, river, castles, the old city centre, the weather. Whenever I hear the dialect I am getting excited. But home is were my partner is. So yes, end of story. The history of humanity is a history of movement and new beginnings.
Oh what a well crafted comment, I can identify with so much! Especially the part of getting excited when hearing the local dialect. It always warms my heart when returning to Bergen. And your last sentence is so true. Yes, humanity's history is truly a story of movement and new beginnings. Yes- we can have roots. But we also have feet.
A simple thank you for brightening my day. Bergen really looks beautiful even (or maybe because of) the rain. Gradually drinking in all your videos, so cleverly crafted.
I so understand how you feel about being torn between two places. We moved to Maryland from Minnesota four years ago and even though I love it here my heart is still in Minnesota. We do go back there once a year but as you say it’s as a visitor and it’s no longer my home. 😢
There are so many feelings connected to "home", wherever that may be. Thanks for sharing your story, I understand your feelings. I just looked up Maryland and Minnesota on the map. Wow, you moved very far away from your home! I think that takes courage.
It's a pleasure to be back in Bergen and its atmosphere. Thanks for the walks, it’s great to be able to discover this pretty, colorful city! Mochi as happy as ever, it’s a joy to see! As always, fun, culture, beauty and emotions are present in this vlog 🖤 🖤
You know, I never actually thought about the fact that Bergen is colorful. Because I grew up there, it was just "normal". So thank you for pointing it out, it's fun to see something familiar through different eyes. For the first time I'm really noticing how colorful Bergen is!
Buongiorno caro mr. I, un altro ottimo video!! Le tue inquadrature unite ai tuoi commenti sempre più profondi, umani, consapevoli, fanno volare i minuti... Condivido molte delle cose che dici, soprattutto quando valuti la capacità di una persona (in questo caso lo scrittore) di usare un linguaggio che trascende il momento storico o la storia personale, perché è capace di usare un linguaggio emotivo e umano riconoscibile universalmente. Un caro abbraccio a voi tre ❤
Hi! Thank you for showing us Bergen. It's such a beautiful city with so many interesting little corners! But I agree with you, home is where those you share your life with are. I melted when I saw Mochi waiting for you at the door. So sweet!❤❤
Как красив город-джаза!!!❤ спасибо за чудесное видео и даже зимний дождь поет свою красивую песню❤Моти великолепна ее глаза❤❤❤❤смотрят на мир умно и сообразительно❤
Ho visitato Berger quasi 10 anni fa, sapevo che era una città molto piovosa ma quel giorno d’estate c’era un sole stupendo con un bellissimo cielo blu. Non mi fece effetto perché sono italiana, di Roma, e il bel tempo é normale per noi ma ricordo gli abitanti che giravano felici, andavano a correre e si vedeva che godevano di quel tempo splendido. Stupenda Bergen è tutta la Norvegia, spero di tornare un giorno ❤
I always love your vlogs there so special to me. I think that you have two hometowns & that's a great thing to have. I hope that you & your family had a lovely Christmas & New Year. I also hope that Mr.J & Mochi are doing well. I know you like snow so hopefully it has snowed in Oslo for you. Take Care! sending hugs from a very snowy (31cm or 12in) Indianapolis,Indiana
Hello and welcome back to home-sweet-home 🤗 Mr I. Your hometown of Bergen is so pretty. All the houses and the narrow streets are just so beautiful ⭐ HEM really looked cozy ☕. Thanks for sharing with us the name of the Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgård. I'll check from my local library for book 5. Wish you, Mochi and MrJ a nice Sunday and upcoming working week. See you next Saturday. 🪄🙋🏻♀️
Godt nytt (lese)år, og takk for Bergensturen! Hjemme er ikke nødvendigvis der hvor vi har vokst opp. Det kan være der hvor vi bor, for kortere eller lengre tid, enten alene eller sammen med den/de vi er glad i. Fint å reflektere litt over dette! En god uke ønskes dere, alle tre!
Happy New Year nice Oslo family! I saw “my” building again! Wow, when you showed the artwork in your entryway followed by the actual rooftops and buildings in Bergen, it was a perfect depiction. That McDonald’s has to be the classiest one in the world. I love all those homes when you walk between them and wonder who lives in them and what their lives are like. I am curious where people park their vehicles as I never see a parking lot anywhere. The homes just look so cozy and charming. Don’t think I could take 200 rainy days, but I’ll say Bergen is the prettiest rainy city. Must be a Scandinavian thing as I remember my mother admonishing me for saying hi to people we didn’t know. She said I was bothering them. I just thought she was nuts! I figured what hem meant as hemma means home in Swedish. A very welcoming name for a bar. I’m so grateful for your channel because I can “travel” to your beautiful country every weekend just like a mini getaway! Have a terrific week Mr. I. and Mr. J. 🐶❤
Haha, I love that you have adopted a building in Oslo 😀 I think we are similar in that I too wonder who lives in houses I walk by. My imagination runs wild! About parking: In Bergen, they built a huge underground parking complex a few years ago, so in the center, many cars park there. Swedish and Norwegian are very similar as you have seen. If you know Swedish, you can easily understand Norwegian. Very practial! 😀
Hello😊 I live in Bergen and in 2024 I started a Vlog from my life here. - Bergen is currently covered in Snow, and recently I made a video from a hike to Stoltzekleiven and Floyen (the two hiking spots above the harbour) in Snow! 😊 I’ve been following your vlog for a while, and find it so comforting and inspiring. Often it moves me to tears. You have a beautiful gift in story telling and I allways feel soothed by your videos. ❤ Greetings from Bergen😊
@ I’m so glad to hear😊😀✨There will be some renovation videos the next months, as we are currently renovating our office room😊 Wishing you, Mochi and Mr J a peaceful sunday, with greetings from Vestlandet✨
Que bom, você estar de volta. Sentimos sua ausência, mas compreendemos, e esperamos que você tenha tido um excelente final de ano. Prontos para recomeçarmos um novo ciclo. Muito grata p passeio em Bergen. As ruas estreitas, as casas de madeira e mesmo a chuva tornam a cidade aconchegante. Lar sempre será onde está nosso coração, nosso amor! Conheço a obra de Karl Őve, muito interessante, partilhamos sua vida, emoções, conflitos… nos transporta p Noruega. Um novo ano rico em amor, paz e harmonia p vc, Mr J e minha adorável Mochi! 💕❤️🐶🇧🇷
What a lovely trip to Bergen ❤ I was thinking how difficult it must be to move in/move out or get furniture delivered to those sweet terrace type of houses in Bergen 💪( steep narrow walkways) As expected Mochi is always a delight & thank you for the book recommendations, I'm sure they're available here in Australia in English. Love to all 😊
Oh yes, it's no joke to move when you live in one of those narrow streets! A friend of mine lived in one of those houses. When they moved in, the big furniture had to go through the windows on the second floor which were removed (!) because the entrance was too small 😅😅😅
Bonne année 🎉 these books were very successful in France. My friend in Quebec has read them all and loved them. I will definitely read one one day, as for now I am reading a beautiful collection of short stories from South Korea. Loved your visit of Bergen 😊 hello from one rainy city to yours 😅
Dear Mr I, thank you for a wonderful beginning to my weekend, as always! I am always very grateful for your reminder to enjoy the magic of the ordinary and it's written on a Post-it stuck on my desk. Your videos always make me reflect and journal. Having lived in different places around the world and in my home country, I think home is where I feel settled/at peace/calm, with my own company and with the company of the people around me :) I remember living in Amsterdam for a while and seeing people flock to the cafes on a very rare sunny day and sit alfresco like sunflowers facing the sun. It was like what you said, many rainy days make people treasure sunny days more. I will treasure more the sunny days in my home country :) Wishing you, Mr J and Princess Mochi a wonderful 2025 ahead! Love from Singapore (Southeast Asia)
Hi and thanks for sharing your thoughts on home. I agree- feeling settled, at peace and calm are all very important feelings that make us feel at home somewhere. Oh- and how lovely that you have that post-it note on your desk. That really warmed my heart! PS! You live in such an amazing place. I visited Singapore on a solo trip many years ago, it was one of the nicest journeys I've had. Truly.
Bergen looks very attractive even in the rain! I love the different styles and colours of the buildings and it was interesting to see the harbour. Mochi was so happy to see you home again!
Welcome back, dear Norwegian friend, Bergen is indeed a lovely city, the houses are wonderful, there was a small white one where I would immediately go to live. Very sweet Mochi's face when she saw you again. Our dancing princess 🫶🏻. Happy find week from the three of us to you ❤️
Hello dear Amelie, I think you would be perfect in one of those small, wooden houses! I hope you are having a wonderful and peaceful Berlin weekend with your sweet little family in that nice apartment with the charming squeaky wooden floors! ❤️
Creo que me encantaría Noruega. Vivo al lado del Mediterráneo, hace poco frío y llueve poco. Por eso valoro los días oscuros y lluviosos, porque aquí son escasos. Saludos
Hi! This video features a book called «Min kamp». (It means «My struggle») It’s a bestselling Norwegian book by Internationally renowned author Karl Ove Knausgård. It has NOTHING to do with Adolf Hitler’s book «Mein Kampf». Hope you enjoy the video, and have a nice day! 😀

Thank you for the video and the reading recommendation. Both of them are very interesting, and I have just searched to get one of the author's books. Thank your very much.
Nice thank you for the reference was looking for books to buy on my next visit
Bergen is beautiful and very wet😅. Love the colours of the buildings. Someone at work asked me the other day if I had plans to go abroad in summer. I replied Oslo!!
Wonderful video 😊 glad that you had a good end of the year and a good new year. We had a good holiday season...but caught a bad cold the day after Christmas...so new year's was quiet, but we are finally better.
🐾💖🥳🥰Happy 2025 to you, Mochi and Mr J. Hugs to you all.
Seeing Mochi always makes me smile!🎉
❤️🐶💫
Me too ❤
200 rainy days a year?! That sounds like a place I'd love to visit. It seems like such a cozy city. Thanks to you and Mochi for sharing! 🤍🐶
All the rain makes the city very poetic. Judging from your very beautiful vlogs, I think you would enjoy Bergen a lot. ❤️
@introvert-and-dog That's very kind! I hope I can visit one day. 🤍🇳🇴
Dziękuję, że pokazałeś nam Bergen swoimi oczami. Architektura miasta jest przepiękna, na pewno promienie słońca tak rzadko przebijające się między budynkami dodają im jeszcze magii. Port również ma nieprzeciętny urok. Uwielbiam Twoje poczucie estetyki 😊 Serdeczne pozdrowienia z Polski 🤗🇵🇱
Happy you enjoyed the video, and thank you so much for these kind words!
The cinematography is flawless. Thank you. ~ Tammy
Feels like therapy watching these videos
Oh my goodness! How you and Mochi and Mr J were missed! And how happy I am that you’re back! The Bergen-focused video was great with some beautiful old jazz and city walks. It highlighted some features that distinguish Bergen from Oslo, like the narrow, labyrinthine walkways between houses and the architecture of the small wooden houses, AND the never-ending rain! Very interesting and charming city. But, I liked the part of the video best where you returned to your flat with Mochi and Mr J. That’s when I felt like the world was once again spinning on the right axis. Thank you for telling us about the book you’re reading and making the author recommendation! I hope you’ll continue to make book recommendations for us readers!
My smile was so big when I read your beautiful comment, ending with how the world was again spinning on the right axis when I can home to Mochi and Mr. J! I really felt this when I came home!
What a lovely time. Thank you for your simple, but special view of your world. Your videos are always a treat!
Thank you very much!
I love the atmosphere your filming, choice of gentle music and thoughtful words provoke - sprinkled with HRH Princess Mochi, just a wonderful time-out experience! Thank you!
What a nice comment, thank you so much!
You ask the profound question of where and what “home” is and then find the answer at the end, just like a satisfying read. I feel a little more familiar with Bergen, seeing it through your eyes. It is such a storybook town, like a perfect diorama of a seaside city that has been around a long time. So charming, the narrow stone-paved streets! You say Karl Ove “writes very well about what it’s like to be human.” Well, dear man, in your pictures and insights, so do you. 🥰
Hi again friend, and thanks for your very kind words! Happy you liked Bergen. You are right, it does have a storybook feel to it. Definitely. I appreciate it more now that I don't see it every day.
Bergen and Oslo have been on the top of my travel lists for many years, I do hope to get there one day. Thx for showing us your beautiful cities ❤
@@suefellows1392 Hope you can visit soon!
Home is where
Your heart is❤
Bergen looks so beautiful and cozy…❤❤ Hamburg is also a very rainy city. And it happens the same here when it is sunny: we all rush outside to enjoy it (if we are not working, of course 😂😂) and the mood of the whole city and the people changes drastically. I live between two countries 3000 km apart. After more than 13 years in this situation you feel you don‘t belong anywhere. When I travel to my home city in Spain, I know the buildings, the streets, etc. but I feel somehow disconnected. When I go back to Germany it feels exactly the same. It is a very weird feeling…for me Home is where my husband and friends are and that is Hamburg. For now 😅 By the way, Happy New Year to the three of you. Happy to have you back.🥳🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing! I love to hear about other people's view on what home is. I know Hamburg is very rainy, I have a friend who is from that city, he has told me 😅
Ultimately, I agree with you. The city itself is secondary to what is most important: That the people you love are there with you.
Happy new year to you and your family, dear friend ❤️
I loved seeing all the narrow streets and picturesque, wooden houses. I'm sure it's always good to visit family and spend time with old friends. And the harbor... Thanks for such a lovely, quiet showing of your home town. Hi to Princess Mochi and Mr. J. I know you missed them while you were in lovely Bergen!
Happy to hear you liked Bergen. And yes, I did miss them so much. It was great seeing them again!
I often ponder the same questions: what is home, where is home? For me, I think home is love - both where I am loved and where I love. As such, home has changed throughout my life. My childhood village is, as you describe so well, like a story tale; a place where identity was formed. The city where I live now is where I have chosen to live, to love, and be loved; and it is the place I have grown into and where I am my true self. Thanks so much for your wonderful perspective on life, and for sharing your lovely family with us ❤
Thanks for sharing your story, it's nice to read about the experience of others. ❤️
Very cozy town!! Thank you!!
Such a great post and loving the rain (and the sound of it); as a Brit living in LA it’s one thing I miss (and we could really use some at the moment)!
Wish I could send you some rain! (Or snow)
I live on the west coast of Ireland, and I am surprised but happy to hear that there is somewhere in Europe even wetter than here!
Your vlogs are do peaceful. I love them
Home is any place where you have put down roots. Over a lifetime, you can have many homes. I'm currently living in a place to which I feel no connection. It will never be a home to me. That's why I so enjoy escaping to other, more attractive places, and your videos are a favorite. Your camera work is simple but artful, and your music choices capture and enhance the mood so well. I came for the sweet dog but am glad I stayed for your lovely stories. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for such kind words! I'm so happy you enjoy my videos. And very wise words also about home.
Bergen is so pretty love the narrow streets good walks and Mochi giving the most precious welcome home 🐶❤️🌂
Gracias por volver! Espero que tengan un buenísimo año 2025 familia!. 💖🐶💜📖💐
I adored this film. It took me back a few years to my first and only visit to Bergen - very wet and rainy but interesting and different.
Happy to hear you enjoyed Bergen ❤️
Thank you for showing Bergen. It is one of the places I love so much! My youngest daughter was in Norway for 18 months. When she came back to the USA, we went to Norway in August, 2018. Bergen was one of the places we stayed. We got an AirBnB on the outskirts of the City of Bergen and we took the tram(?) to go places. It was raining cats and dogs the days we went to Bergen, but it in the afternoon, it stopped raining. Norway is so beautiful, and hopefully soon my husband and I will go visit Norway again.
Sounds like you had a very nice trip to Bergen (with the authentic weather! 😂) Hope you can visit again soon!
I’m from USA and I really love your channel. I especially like simple day activity, simple meal preparation, and of course, Mochi. When you spend extended time on street scenes (like this one) my mind starts to wander. I also read extensively but don’t enjoy strong presence of recommendations that may not be what I would be drawn to.
Happy to hear you enjoy my videos! And thanks for your feedback ❤️
Thanks for you
Oslo is modern while Bergen with its cobbled street narrow lanes and pretty colourful houses has its old world charm...
That book I will read in future as I too love to read and have a small home library. ..at the end when you returned home with Mochi greeting you that's the sweetest part !
The Bergen depiction in your hallway looks so good...
Enjoyed the hometown tour of yours !!!!
See you next week !
You’re right- The two cities are different like that 😀
Bergen is beautiful. I like coastal towns, cities and rain as I grew up in a coastal city with lots of rain and I now live on the other side of the world with snow. Home to me is not just one place. Home is the place where I grew up and home is also the place where I have settled - 2 different countries in 2 different continents. Seeing Mochi greet you was precious. It brought a smile to my face. I will look for Karl Ove Knausgaard's novel in English as I like autobiographies. Have a good weekend!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on home. I like hearing other people's views (and stories).
Hope you enjoy Knausgaard's biography series if you go for it!
Hvala za ovu šetnju gradom.Mochi❤.Pozdrav Serbia👋

Привет ребята и милая Моти. У нас снова ютуб зависал, а тут просто включила, а он работает и сразу ваше новое видео увидела. С удовольствием прогулялась с вами по вашему родному Бергену, очень впечатляет. Люблю с вамии Моти погулять, поесть с вами вкусняшку, а потом отдохнуть. Счастья вам добра и всех благ в Новом году. Мы всегда с вами.😊😊😊
Hello friend- I'm so happy you could watch my video! Glad to hear you enjoyed the rainy city of Bergen 😀
ntrovert-0:59 and-dog Берген очень красивый и уютный. Здесь очень спокойно и комфортно.
Even though there are so many rainy days, it still looks beautiful, and I would like to visit it. I love when you shoot videos in Bergen, the city has a special charm, with all those colorful houses and beautiful buildings. I hope you had a nice holiday! Nice to see a new video again! 😊
Happy you enjoy my Bergen videos. The city really has charm and is of course very dear to me 😀
your videos make me want to visit bergen, it is very beautiful, I like the narrow cobbled streets!!
Hope you visit one day!
Good to see you, Mochi and Mr B are back and glad you got to spend some time in your hometown with friends and family. I love Bergen, even in the rain!
Best wishes to you all❤🦴🦴
Living in Tokyo, away from my family, I often ponder the idea of “home” too. I feel at home here in Japan after many years, but I know that my other “home” still exists with my family back in my country. 🤍☔
Thanks for sharing! It's nice to have two (or more!) homes ❤
Hi guys,
you were missed a lot! I enjoyed every second of your video because your content about Bergen is always my favourite. It makes me feel like I have to visit Bergen immediately. The saying about the weather and the clothes is also common in Germany I guess because my French teacher used to say it to us too and I absolutely agree. You have to be able to enjoy the rain as well as the sunny days. Thanks for your nice captures of Bergen once again, I love it! I also thought about the question where home is and I think that it is the place where your beloved ones are. I would like to be able to visit my family and friends frequently but there are in Germany and I’m in Istanbul. So it’s not so easy to manage it. That’s why I’m questioning the feeling of being home. I miss my quiet life and family a lot so I try to visit them twice a year. The last scene of your video was adorable. What a wonderful sunset 🌅
Thanks for your heartwarming video and wise words.
Wish you guys a happy new year and all the best ❤
Muuuuuch love and a very big hug from Istanbul ❤
Hi dear friend, it's comforting to hear that other people also reflect on the topic of home. It can be more difficult when the two homes are in different countries like in your case. It takes not only time, but money to travel back and forth. But in the end, I guess we should be grateful to love more than one place. It is a blessing.
Big hugs from Oslo to Istanbul ❤️
I love looking at those charming buildings in Bergen, your nostalgic home town. Even a narrow street is picturesque. Thank you & Happy new year to you☺️
Happy new year to you! ❤️
Thank goodness you’re back! Two weeks with out sweet Mochi was tough! Welcome back and Happy New Year!
I’m in full agreement 🙌🏻😁
Happy new year!! 😋🐶
Bergen and its houses looks lovely. I also love walking in the rain so the scenery was perfect for me🥰🥰
With a channel name like yours, you would LOVE Bergen 😅
Hi!!
Thanks for your video💘
Bergen is precious🙂
Thank you for another wonderfully cozy video. The way you tell your stories in these videos always puts me into a dreamy mood. And also thank you for so much kindness streaming from every episode! It is so important now the world's gone that harsh. ❤
I smiled when I read your kind comment. Thank you 😀
Yeah you’re back 🎉 I was looking forward 🫶🏻
Tout est ❤ Merci et bon weekend 🙂
What a stunning city! Its position, climbing the hills, the red roofs, cobblestones and narrow alleyways and of course gorgeous houses. Thanks for the visit and I agree with you, based on this video, Bergen wins. 😉
Hola!! Soy Argentina, estuve viendo tus videos, me han atrapado, debo decirte que es maravilloso ver la otra parte del mundo desde tus videos...GRACIAS!!
Sabes tengo un primo viviendo alli en Noruega, amo el clima de tu ciudad, quisiera vivir alli...donde vivo hace mucho calor y no me gusta, en estos momentos estamos en verano, con mucho calor y tormentas de verano, no me gusta el calor 😢
Debo felicitarte por transmitirme el concepto de hogar, tengo sensaciones similares cuando me acoge la nostalgia de mi ciudad natal....ya no estoy en ella, pero mi hogar es donde estoy yo y mis hijos...
Disfruto ver a tu bella princesa, me llena de amor, gracias por compartir, les envio un fuerte abrazo y los esperare con ansias....❤
Hello and thank you so much for your kind comment! I hope your cousin enjoys his life in Norway. It takes some getting used to because the weather here in northern Europe can be very rough, especially in winter.
@introvert-and-dog gracias por responder, sos muy amable...
Y si ya se acostumbro, lleva muchos años viviendo allí, que alegria me da saber que en esa parte del mundo es tan acogedora...gracias por tu aporte a la vida, eres especial y celebro esta vivencia a travez de tus videos...abrazo de una argentina!!
This vlog was quite relaxing with the rain and walking and those beautiful homes and narrow alleyways,so romantic 😊 Mochi always make me happy happy happy🤗🤗
У вас очень чувствительная и теплая душа! Моти❤❤❤
Bergen sounds like a fairytale, a tucked away little city we read about in novels. Magical.
Hello guys! Your videos are a breeze of fresh air!
Thanks for sharing a bit of your routine with us!
Have a lovely weekend ahead!
Much love from Brazil!
Thank you friend! Love to Brazil as always 😀
A home more than a physical space is a feeling.
A place that is the extension of the self, the connection between "who we are" and "where we are".
And the arms of the person we love sweetly surrounding us, also makes us understand that this is our home regardless of where in the world we are.
And where a sweet being like Mochi, welcoming us with the same joy even when we cross the front door a hundred times in a row, that is also a feeling of home.
Thanks a lot Mr. I for allowing us to reflect on the meaning of the word "home" while you toured Bergen, that beautiful city that seems to have been built to the measure of a fairy dream.
Welcome Mr. I to my home, you and your lovely family were greatly missed.
Btw: there is also a book "A death in the family", winner of the Pulitzer Prize, by the American writer James Agee. Sooo good.
You know human nature so well, to formulate beautiful comments like this, dear friend. Thank you for the book tip- I will definitely look up this book!
Very beautiful what you post ❤
@@tizianarodriguez2896
Thanks a lot Tiziana. Hugs from Argentina.
Awesome music choice - slow,soft, moody jazz!!,🤗 Again, Great vlog - love the rain - there’ll never be a drought in Bergen!😄
TRUE! 😅
Ficaria horas só olhando a arquitetura das casas de Bergen. Dá uma sensação tão boa ❤ acho que a chuva combina com essa cidade. E ler também é tudo de bom nessa vida. Obrigada pelo vídeo ❤
Bergen ist eine wunderbare Stadt.Als Wir dort waren , schien die Sonne und wir sind mit der Seilbahn auf Floyen gefahren.Von dort hat man einen wunderbaren Blick auf die Stadt.Und ich liebe die kleinen, bunten Holzhäuser in Norwegen. 😍 Vielen Dank für das schöne Video.
You were lucky to have sun in Bergen 😀
Being greeted by that absolutely adorable face has made my day! I’ll be back later, when I have time to really savour your Vlog 🫶🏻
Нарешті маємо нове чудове відео!
Я люблю дощ, дощові дні і дощове місто. Влітку дощ пахне квітами, травою і мокрою землею..а восени опалим прілим листям і мокрою корою дерев..І завжди дощ то спокій і чистота!
Дім там, де нам затишно, тепло і приємно, де ми можемо розслабитися і спокійно відпочити.
Дуже зворушливий момент зустрічі Мочі зі своїм татком😊
Чекаю наступне відео!)
Yes, there is something very special and poetic about rain. Happy you like it too!
Hermoso el McDonald's parece más una iglesia que un lugar de comida rápida 😂 pero que genial que mantengan la armonía de tu bella ciudad natal. Cariños para los tres y muy feliz nuevo año ❤🎉 🐕
McDonald's was very respectful when they moved into that old building 😀
What a nice video...home...books..love...dog...greetings from Serbia ❤🇷🇸
You are so kind! Greetings from Oslo to Serbia ❤️
Hola! Un video con bellas imágenes y de una exquisita sensibilidad ❤. Saludos desde España 🌹
Thank you for the beautiful view of Bergen :D
Sentía el olor del libro mientras lo tenías en tus manos :)
Sounds like you have an artist's soul, my friend ❤️
Hello introvert. I was very happy to see the pictures of your hometown. It is very beautiful. I don't like rain very much but I love snow. But I imagine that you are used to its climate since you were born and lived there for several years. I read a only book by the author you mentioned this summer. In Italian they translated it La stella del mattino. I don't know the title in Norwegian. I think I would like to live in Norway because even though I am Italian I don't like chaos. But I love silence, discretion and respect for other people. Maybe because like you I am an introvert. A big hug and I await the next video. A kiss to mochi
If you enjoy silence, I think you will love Norway. I hope you can visit one day! ❤
@introvert-and-dog i hope so too
Happy New Year to you and your family. I love the rain too and we just had two days of snow which is unusual in my town in the southern US. Thank you for the very cozy video.
Thank you for posting. Bergen is on my bucket list, rain and all, 😂 beautiful!!
So happy to see a new video. I didn’t watch it immediately because I just wanted to savour knowing it was there and watching it when life was quieter. I’m such a weirdo lol.😂. Bergen is so picturesque. Nice to visit your hometown! Happy New Year🎉
You are so very sweet! ❤️
A wonderful video once again❣️ Thanks...
I watch your videos over and over, before going to work to add a touch of magic to my day, after work for the peace they bring me, while creating to be inspired by the beauty of Oslo (and Bergen), to enjoy your simple pleasures, and above all to see your beautiful little Mochi!
Your comment made me smile- it's nice to know my videos bring joy peace! 😀
So Bergen has literally nearly the same weather as here. More rainy days than sunny days, just the sort of rain differs. One gets used to it. As we always say, time to grow back the webbed membranes. There is a melancholic fondness thinking about former hometowns. I visit mine from time to time and really would like to live there again. But it changed. Too many tourists and one hell of expensive place to rent or buy. It is a bit sad. I am stuck here and the parts of my family left behind - at my former home town, are now all gone. But I still like it better there, mountains, river, castles, the old city centre, the weather. Whenever I hear the dialect I am getting excited. But home is were my partner is. So yes, end of story. The history of humanity is a history of movement and new beginnings.
Oh what a well crafted comment, I can identify with so much! Especially the part of getting excited when hearing the local dialect. It always warms my heart when returning to Bergen.
And your last sentence is so true. Yes, humanity's history is truly a story of movement and new beginnings.
Yes- we can have roots. But we also have feet.
Nice to See you again 👨❤️👨🐕. Happy new Year.🍀🍀🙌
Happy new year friend!
They say home is where the heart is ❤ Thank you for a beautiful video, as always.
‘There is a veil between me and the city’. I can't define it better. Thank you for this wonderful vlog
A simple thank you for brightening my day. Bergen really looks beautiful even (or maybe because of) the rain. Gradually drinking in all your videos, so cleverly crafted.
Happy you enjoyed Bergen!
It's definite now! Norway added to my bucket list. Thank you for this charming video tour.
I so understand how you feel about being torn between two places. We moved to Maryland from Minnesota four years ago and even though I love it here my heart is still in Minnesota. We do go back there once a year but as you say it’s as a visitor and it’s no longer my home. 😢
There are so many feelings connected to "home", wherever that may be. Thanks for sharing your story, I understand your feelings. I just looked up Maryland and Minnesota on the map. Wow, you moved very far away from your home! I think that takes courage.
It's a pleasure to be back in Bergen and its atmosphere. Thanks for the walks, it’s great to be able to discover this pretty, colorful city! Mochi as happy as ever, it’s a joy to see! As always, fun, culture, beauty and emotions are present in this vlog 🖤 🖤
You know, I never actually thought about the fact that Bergen is colorful. Because I grew up there, it was just "normal". So thank you for pointing it out, it's fun to see something familiar through different eyes. For the first time I'm really noticing how colorful Bergen is!
I like such people as they seem to be in norway, respecting others private space and being quiet themselves. It creates a peaceful atmosphere.
Buongiorno caro mr. I, un altro ottimo video!! Le tue inquadrature unite ai tuoi commenti sempre più profondi, umani, consapevoli, fanno volare i minuti... Condivido molte delle cose che dici, soprattutto quando valuti la capacità di una persona (in questo caso lo scrittore) di usare un linguaggio che trascende il momento storico o la storia personale, perché è capace di usare un linguaggio emotivo e umano riconoscibile universalmente. Un caro abbraccio a voi tre ❤
Hi and thank you for your very kind comment. Your words really warmed my heart here in Oslo where it's currently very cold ❤️
Hi! Thank you for showing us Bergen. It's such a beautiful city with so many interesting little corners! But I agree with you, home is where those you share your life with are. I melted when I saw Mochi waiting for you at the door. So sweet!❤❤
I guess she heart my keys in the door and waited for me. It melted my heart to see her there too ❤️❤️❤️
Qui sta per arrivare la neve ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ buon week end ❤
Dove? Qui niente.
Как красив город-джаза!!!❤ спасибо за чудесное видео и даже зимний дождь поет свою красивую песню❤Моти великолепна ее глаза❤❤❤❤смотрят на мир умно и сообразительно❤
Yes, the rain has its own, beautiful melody, I'm so happy you noticed it ❤️
Ho visitato Berger quasi 10 anni fa, sapevo che era una città molto piovosa ma quel giorno d’estate c’era un sole stupendo con un bellissimo cielo blu. Non mi fece effetto perché sono italiana, di Roma, e il bel tempo é normale per noi ma ricordo gli abitanti che giravano felici, andavano a correre e si vedeva che godevano di quel tempo splendido. Stupenda Bergen è tutta la Norvegia, spero di tornare un giorno ❤
Glad to hear you had a nice time in Bergen! Hope you can return one day 😀
Visada mėgau senamiesčius. Jie tokie nepaprasti, unikalūs ir jaukūs😊 Ačiū jums už Bergeno senamiestį👍😊
Very true, old cities are very unique and truly wonderful!
I always love your vlogs there so special to me. I think that you have two hometowns & that's a great thing to have. I hope that you & your family had a lovely Christmas & New Year. I also hope that Mr.J & Mochi are doing well. I know you like snow so hopefully it has snowed in Oslo for you. Take Care! sending hugs from a very snowy (31cm or 12in) Indianapolis,Indiana
Oh wow, you have a lot of snow in Indianapolis! It has snowed heavily here in Oslo too, so I'm happy to have real winter finally! 😀
@introvert-and-dog I forgot to say that Mochi laying in your lap is the sweetest thing♥Dear little Mochi loves you so much.
Hello from Poland. Happy New Year to you both and sweet Mochi. Thank you for showing beautiful Bergen With love Barbara.
Happy new year! And love from Oslo to Poland ❤
@introvert-and-dog Thank you beautiful people.
Lindo vlog, ❤⚘️❤,parabéns pelo vosso canal.
Hello and welcome back to home-sweet-home 🤗 Mr I.
Your hometown of Bergen is so pretty. All the houses and the narrow streets are just so beautiful ⭐ HEM really looked cozy ☕.
Thanks for sharing with us the name of the Norwegian writer Karl Ove Knausgård. I'll check from my local library for book 5.
Wish you, Mochi and MrJ a nice Sunday and upcoming working week. See you next Saturday. 🪄🙋🏻♀️
I love that you use the library! Hope they have his books there. Have a wonderful week ahead, friend ❤️🐶💫
Godt nytt (lese)år, og takk for Bergensturen! Hjemme er ikke nødvendigvis der hvor vi har vokst opp. Det kan være der hvor vi bor, for kortere eller lengre tid, enten alene eller sammen med den/de vi er glad i. Fint å reflektere litt over dette! En god uke ønskes dere, alle tre!
Enig med deg om hva som er hjemme. Ha en fin uke du også!
Happy New Year nice Oslo family! I saw “my” building again! Wow, when you showed the artwork in your entryway followed by the actual rooftops and buildings in Bergen, it was a perfect depiction. That McDonald’s has to be the classiest one in the world. I love all those homes when you walk between them and wonder who lives in them and what their lives are like. I am curious where people park their vehicles as I never see a parking lot anywhere. The homes just look so cozy and charming. Don’t think I could take 200 rainy days, but I’ll say Bergen is the prettiest rainy city. Must be a Scandinavian thing as I remember my mother admonishing me for saying hi to people we didn’t know. She said I was bothering them. I just thought she was nuts! I figured what hem meant as hemma means home in Swedish. A very welcoming name for a bar. I’m so grateful for your channel because I can “travel” to your beautiful country every weekend just like a mini getaway! Have a terrific week Mr. I. and Mr. J. 🐶❤
Haha, I love that you have adopted a building in Oslo 😀
I think we are similar in that I too wonder who lives in houses I walk by. My imagination runs wild!
About parking: In Bergen, they built a huge underground parking complex a few years ago, so in the center, many cars park there.
Swedish and Norwegian are very similar as you have seen. If you know Swedish, you can easily understand Norwegian. Very practial! 😀
I always appreciate watching your videos: the calm, the photography, the Mochi always do well for my soul. Thank you.
That makes me very happy!
Dobro došao nazad, ti i naša ljubimica Mochi 🎉 ovaj put te ne pozdravljam iz Sarajeva, nego iz Ciriha, kod sestre sam. Divan video 🎉
Oh how wonderful! Hope you have a good time there 😋
Estávamos com saudades de vocês. ❤❤❤
You always deliver us a wonderful vlog, full of humanity and sensitivity, Mr. I. Thank you very much❤
My pleasure! ❤️
Hello😊 I live in Bergen and in 2024 I started a Vlog from my life here. - Bergen is currently covered in Snow, and recently I made a video from a hike to Stoltzekleiven and Floyen (the two hiking spots above the harbour) in Snow! 😊
I’ve been following your vlog for a while, and find it so comforting and inspiring. Often it moves me to tears. You have a beautiful gift in story telling and I allways feel soothed by your videos. ❤
Greetings from Bergen😊
Thank you for your kind words. And how wonderful that you have a Bergen vlog. Now I can see my home town through your eyes. I subscribed! 😀
@ I’m so glad to hear😊😀✨There will be some renovation videos the next months, as we are currently renovating our office room😊 Wishing you, Mochi and Mr J a peaceful sunday, with greetings from Vestlandet✨
@@Quiet_Oak Love renovation videos!!
Bergen é linda!!! Estava com saudade de vocês... Beijos do Brasil 🫶🇧🇷
Warm greetings from Oslo to Brazil ❤️
@introvert-and-dog thank you, honey...🤗
Que bom, você estar de volta. Sentimos sua ausência, mas compreendemos, e esperamos que você tenha tido um excelente final de ano. Prontos para recomeçarmos um novo ciclo. Muito grata p passeio em Bergen. As ruas estreitas, as casas de madeira e mesmo a chuva tornam a cidade aconchegante. Lar sempre será onde está nosso coração, nosso amor!
Conheço a obra de Karl Őve, muito interessante, partilhamos sua vida, emoções, conflitos… nos transporta p Noruega.
Um novo ano rico em amor, paz e harmonia p vc, Mr J e minha adorável Mochi!
💕❤️🐶🇧🇷
Your words feel like a hug! Love from Oslo to you friend ❤️
What a lovely trip to Bergen ❤
I was thinking how difficult it must be to move in/move out or get furniture delivered to those sweet terrace type of houses in Bergen 💪( steep narrow walkways)
As expected Mochi is always a delight & thank you for the book recommendations, I'm sure they're available here in Australia in English. Love to all 😊
Oh yes, it's no joke to move when you live in one of those narrow streets! A friend of mine lived in one of those houses. When they moved in, the big furniture had to go through the windows on the second floor which were removed (!) because the entrance was too small 😅😅😅
@introvert-and-dog 😂 that's crazy isn't it, but a good solution 👌 I'm thinking no one has a grand piano in those houses 🤣😂🤣
A man after my own heart - " always a new book to be discovered!" Amen to that!!😁
We will (luckily) never run out of books to read 😀
Hi my. friend❤️Bergen is a very nice town. Home is where your heart is❤️, I think. Greetings from Poland
Very wise words, I think you are right!
Bonne année 🎉 these books were very successful in France. My friend in Quebec has read them all and loved them. I will definitely read one one day, as for now I am reading a beautiful collection of short stories from South Korea. Loved your visit of Bergen 😊 hello from one rainy city to yours 😅
Oh wow, it is fun to hear that a Norwegian author is read in many countries!
Dear Mr I, thank you for a wonderful beginning to my weekend, as always! I am always very grateful for your reminder to enjoy the magic of the ordinary and it's written on a Post-it stuck on my desk. Your videos always make me reflect and journal.
Having lived in different places around the world and in my home country, I think home is where I feel settled/at peace/calm, with my own company and with the company of the people around me :) I remember living in Amsterdam for a while and seeing people flock to the cafes on a very rare sunny day and sit alfresco like sunflowers facing the sun. It was like what you said, many rainy days make people treasure sunny days more. I will treasure more the sunny days in my home country :)
Wishing you, Mr J and Princess Mochi a wonderful 2025 ahead!
Love from Singapore (Southeast Asia)
Hi and thanks for sharing your thoughts on home. I agree- feeling settled, at peace and calm are all very important feelings that make us feel at home somewhere.
Oh- and how lovely that you have that post-it note on your desk. That really warmed my heart!
PS! You live in such an amazing place. I visited Singapore on a solo trip many years ago, it was one of the nicest journeys I've had. Truly.
Bergen looks very attractive even in the rain! I love the different styles and colours of the buildings and it was interesting to see the harbour. Mochi was so happy to see you home again!
I don't know who was happier. Me or Mochi! 😂
this place is magical, rainy days are underrated, love the narrow streets, cute McD
Welcome back, dear Norwegian friend, Bergen is indeed a lovely city, the houses are wonderful, there was a small white one where I would immediately go to live. Very sweet Mochi's face when she saw you again.
Our dancing princess 🫶🏻.
Happy find week from the three of us to you ❤️
Hello dear Amelie, I think you would be perfect in one of those small, wooden houses!
I hope you are having a wonderful and peaceful Berlin weekend with your sweet little family in that nice apartment with the charming squeaky wooden floors! ❤️
Creo que me encantaría Noruega. Vivo al lado del Mediterráneo, hace poco frío y llueve poco. Por eso valoro los días oscuros y lluviosos, porque aquí son escasos. Saludos
Hermoso video..
La nostalgia se termina al encontrarte con Mochi y el Sr J...
Un abrazo..🙋♂️
