Join us for beautiful pics of auroras, reindeer teeth trivia, and grousings about grocery prices! Whether you’re a born Norwegian, immigrant, tourist, or just think reindeer are cute, this is the place to be.

Due to the small size of Lemmy, and the even smaller size of the Norwegian part of Lemmy, contributors are encouraged to stick to English where possible.
