Winter in the mountains of Norway. My PINE NEEDLE tea recipe. Story 2

November is here! And winters arriving to the mountains where we are living at the moment. In this video I share a glimpse into our every day life at the artist residency.
We are still living in a small cabin in the Norwegian village called Leveld. Bendik has been making some progress with his Cyanotype and paperart. He is also gathering some materials from abandoned buildings that he will be using to make frames.
It is still possible to forage after the first snow has arrived! In this video I share my Pine Needle tea recipe. I make pine needle tea at home on the fireplace when winter starts knocking at my door. It helps me stay warm and in contact with the forest through these dark winter months in Norway.
Check out my earlier videos if you wish to learn more about edible plants in the Nordic regions.

People with rosin (Colophony) allergies should not drink pine needle tea, and consuming large amounts of Pine Needle tea over a longer period of time is not good for your kidneys. Make sure the pine tree you forage from is not one of the poisonous ones, and be careful not to harm the tree.

Another lovely video, Maria! Your snowman in the lane was oozing with personality; with the upraised arm he seemed to be greeting anyone walking by. That sounds so lovely - “a sip of the forest”. It must smell wonderful too. Must be a spirit boost to have in winter. Thank you for brightening my winter morning today! Much love, dear Maria!

Thank you Kathy. Haha I am glad you liked our snowman-freind. He scared some of the other artist in residence when they were out walking and did not expect him! But I thought he looked pretty friendly. Thank you as well, for your comment. Much love

Hallo, Ihr Video ist sehr interessant . Ich habe ihren Ort gesucht und ihr seid nicht sehr weit entfernt von Oslo aber es reicht um dieses Gefühl von Wildness zu spüren. Schön das der Schnee sogar in Süd angekommen ist. Danke für die schöne Bilder, ich hoffe auf neue Bilder, ich bin von jetzt an abonniert. Viel Glück.

Hello, thank you so much. Yes, its about three hours drive from Oslo. But you dont have to drive very far from Oslo to be in the nature :-). I am very glad to have you as a subscriber!

Another lovely video Maria. Thank you! And I absolutely love Bendik's work. So beautiful, like little fairytales! I have to force myself to get up and get to work now, but I'd so love to binge watch all your videos! I have agreed with myself that after I get work done, I get to drink a coffee or tea and sit down to watch another one of your videos. Really motivating! Keep sharing, I love your style

I watch your videos with great delight. I discover all the richness of picking. What many treasures in nature! I find there are many plant species in your country, far more than I imagined for a country of "cold". Thank you for sharing your art but also your knowledge and your pleasure of nature. 🧡🍂💚

I am so glad you find this knowledge interesting! It is true that what can seem like barren and cold land always has some treasures in it

Beautiful video! Really inspiring. Been trying to decide whether I wanna go the same route with showing my life a bit. But I'm a little camera shy. If anything I've uploaded my own video today as you have. First one in a while. Again, greetings from California, USA. Really beautiful video. As well as that part of the world that I haven't been to before. But hope to someday.

Thank you so much! And so good you uploaded a video :) I will head over and watch it when I get the time! I think its easier to talk on top of the clips, sitting in front of the camera talking still makes me "shy" as well. I guess it just takes practice?

Lovely snow and winter atmosphere. At this moment, even though, I am living on the top of the mountain, it's still warm here during day time, but, at night a bit cold. Cheers.
