obamicon moose 3 square smaller been there recommends

Hi and welcome to this blog! I moved to Fredrikstad, Østfold, two years ago, and fell in love with this wonderful part of southern Norway. There is unfortunately very little info currently available in English about Østfold, hence the idea for this blog. I hope you enjoy reading it, please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or suggestions.

Happy reading!

    Hi there
    Saw your blog was tipped about on Been There (by you?!). Anyway, thought it warranted a flagging up on the site so here it is: http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/
    Thanks
    Susan

    Hi, fantastic – making PR for Østfold!
    I am working with The Sornes Clock – Sørnes uret, one of the world’s most complicated watches made in modern times. It is situated at Borgarsyssel museum in Sarpsborg. I have just started a group at FaceBook, the link is

    Hei!
    Great site! How industrious of you to begin your own information site for Ostfold. I formerly lived in Stavanger which has plenty of publicity. Now I live in New York. I like your information and you have covered many aspects of your area. Good luck with this.

    Hi, in case you didn’t see my reply at my blog, I have written about your blog already (http://jtisdall.wordpress.com/2009/12/26/resolute/) and have added it to my list of Nordic links.

    Wouldn’t mind some PR in return if you get the chance :-)

    In 2002 we had a reunion on nearby Hvaler, the birthplace of my great grandfather Karl Karlsen. We observed the 100th anniversary of his emigration to the U.S. with his family, including my 12-year-old grandfather. There were over 600 cousins to greet us when we returned “home.” It was a very moving trip. I will look forward to returning.
