Oslo / Shop / Cafe / Bar

Fuglen is a cafe, cocktail bar and second hand design shop specialising in quirky and sometimes forgotten treasures, predominantly from the 50’s and 60’s. Fuglen first opened it´s doors in 1963, and having a cup of coffee here is like stepping back in time, Scandinavian style.

Oslo / Place

It's Oslos most popular sledging slope. It’s existed since 1900 and is 2000 metres long with a fall of 255 metres. You can rent a sledge at the top and my record down it is about 6 minutes. There’s no better place for making you feel like a little kid again!

Oslo / Architecture

The City Hall ( Rådhuset ) is my favorite building in Oslo, it was designed by Arnstein Arneberg and Magnus Poulsson and completed in 1950. I love the main hall with its 21 meter high ceilings, and wall paintings by Norwegian artists Henrik Sørensen og Alf Rolfsen.

Oslo / Shop

Strangest second hand store in Oslo, run by two blind elderly ladies, and only open on Mondays and Thursdays. The store is tiny and crammed, you can do a scoop, but the prices are fairy unpredictable, the ladies have a very independent pricing-system.

Oslo / Cafe

Vegetarian café/restaurant with incredible food and coffee. With great architecture and friendly staff, this is the perfect place to enjoy a slow Saturday morning

Oslo / Restaurant

The Ekeberg restaurant is located on the Ekeberg hill and offers a great view of the Oslofjord and great food. Not the cheapest place in Oslo, but the view and the delicious food are worth the price!
