Life of luxury

After spending a week in Oslo working 12 hours a day it's nice to kick back and relax at my mothers place. The average Norwegian lives a life of luxury thanks to our massive oil exports (#3 in the world) and pathetic population numbers (#114 in the world). Combine the wealth with our wonderful weather results in a great deal of this luxury focused indoors and it's great to just sit back and enjoy it. The house is always warm and full of great little comfy-corners to sit in. In addition my mom makes great food, full of calories and Norwegian flavors. Later today I'm going hunting for dear with an uncle and my kid-brother and I can almost imagine myself as a real Norwegian and not a Mexican lost in scandinavia.

Update: No hunting, but I spend several hours out in 3 degree weather, constructing a small garage with my brother for his 4x4. It feels good to actually construct something tangible, something made of wood and nails and that will one day fall apart from decay and not because someone fucked up the server or forgot to do a backup. Long live the physical world!
