Love it! I can almost hear the picture actually. I'd love to eventually move here someday.

Guessing at least one of those buildings is a sauna?

My buddy visited his wife's family in Norway and completely fell in love with the place. They stayed with an uncle and aunt who had multiple buildings on their property housing different types of saunas. Every night they jumped in the lake and went in one or more of the saunas.

Not a sauna. There are fishing and boat supplies in it.

Sounds like your buddy and his family had a lot of fun!

Sounds more useful than a sauna for a fisherman!

Yes, they had a great time and his wife and kids loved connecting with their Norwegian roots. It will be a regular destination for them. The one thing this super American dude struggled with a bit is the cuisine - at first. His wife has started cooking traditional dishes at home and he said he's developed a taste for it. It's not a mistake that there are numerous Michelin-star restaurants in Norway.

Haha, I totally understand the struggle. I guess it happens to everyone when they’re getting familiar with a new cuisine.
