Living in Norway | The Richest Country's Secret to Happiness | 4K

In Tromsø, the sun sets at the end of November and does not rise again until the middle of January. Yet many Norwegians say the dark season is their favorite time of year. How?

In this 4K travel documentary we spend one full year in Norway, month by month: the cod that built the nation in Lofoten, the polar night and northern lights of Tromsø, an ordinary working day in Trondheim, Easter at the family cabin, the 17th of May children's parade in Bergen, the oil discovery that made Norway one of the richest countries on Earth, the fjords, the Flåm Railway and a 900-year-old stave church, the Atlantic Ocean Road, Røros and brown cheese, the orchards of Hardanger, the Sámi reindeer herders of Finnmark, and Christmas in Oslo, where nobody shows off their wealth.

What does Norway make you feel? Tell us in the comments.
