WHERE ON EARTH IS NARVIK ??

On this map you can see were my hometown Narvik are located. When you see me online here on VT thats the place were I am sitting, far up here in the north. I must say I have a very good life up here in northern Scandinavia. The only thing I dont like is that the winters in my opinion is a bit too long... But for those who like skiing and snowboarding this is a paradise. Our summers can be pretty warm and nice and I love them, with midnightsun and all. The nature around Narvik is nice so its good to come here if you like nature and outdoorstuff.

PS: PHOTO BELOW OF ME AND MY FAMILY WERE TAKEN BY HUSAIN FROM INDIA DURING HIS VISIT

Narvik, almost I got a job in Narvik once. But I worked in lovely Norway, in Bokn Island near Haugesund. Narvik must be incredible, there next to the North Pole.
