Northern experience

Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you?

Yes, I’m deeply patriotic. In a way that values our diversity and cultural features in any ethnicity. I had refugees as best friends growing up and that has profoundly important effects on my relationship with belonging and my country.

I’m from Norway as I may have mentioned before and I’m in my 30s now. I love living here. I love the culture influenced by several different languages including Sámi and Kven as well as the Northern Norwegian. I’m a quarter Southern Scandinavian as well, I love Agder county both in nature and the people living there.

In general it’s more about values and nature to me, not excluding anyone based on their origins or language. I love Norway and I always will.

Thanks for listening ❤
