About Us:
We are traveling across Norway with caravan Hymer Eriba Troll 530 Rockabilly. Most of our trips are relatively short and start from Fredrikstad in Norway. For those who are limited in time, you might discover what you could see during a two-day or three-day trip in Southern Norway. To get more impressions from an uncommon perspective we are flying over Norway with drones and making short drone films and travel vlogs in 4K.
You are welcome to leave your questions in the comments to the video and we will try to answer our best!
