Transcript:No: Det var en rolig ettermiddag på kaféen i Bergen.En: It was a calm afternoon at the café in Bergen.No: Solen skinte gjennom det store vinduet, og det kastet varme solstråler over Lars der han satt ved et lite trebord.En: The sun shone through the large window, casting warm rays over Lars as he sat at a small wooden table.No: Han pustet dypt inn, prøvde å slappe av i det koselige rommet fylt med lukten av nybakte boller og svak kaffeparfyme.En: He breathed deeply, trying to relax in the cozy room filled with the smell of freshly baked buns and a faint aroma of coffee.No: Rundt ham summet samtalene lavt, en perfekt bakgrunnsmelodi til hans egne tanker.En: Around him, the conversations buzzed softly, a perfect background melody to his own thoughts.No: Lars løftet blikket og kikket ut gjennom vinduet.En: Lars lifted his gaze and looked out through the window.No: Gaten utenfor var våt etter en regnskur, dråpene hang som diamanter fra busken utenfor.En: The street outside was wet after a rain shower, drops hanging like diamonds from the bush outside.No: En del av ham lengtet allerede etter det store, åpne landskapet i fjordene, men nervøsiteten knyttet seg i magen.En: A part of him already longed for the vast, open landscape of the fjords, but nervousness tightened in his stomach.No: Han hadde mye ansvar hjemme, jobben ventet og vennene hans ville savne ham.En: He had many responsibilities at home, work awaited, and his friends would miss him.No: Men kanskje, tenkte han, ville naturen gi ham den roen han så desperat trengte.En: But maybe, he thought, nature would provide him the peace he so desperately needed.No: Ingrid, kaféens vennlige servitør, la merke til det fjerne blikket hans og kom bort med en varm kopp kaffe.En: Ingrid, the café's friendly waitress, noticed his distant gaze and came by with a warm cup of coffee.No: "Du ser ut som du har mye i tankene," sa hun med et smil.En: "You seem like you have a lot on your mind," she said with a smile.No: "Ja," svarte Lars og så henne i øynene for første gang.En: "Yes," replied Lars, looking into her eyes for the first time.No: "Jeg skal snart ta ferjen til fjordene, men jeg er ikke sikker på om jeg er klar.En: "I'm soon heading to the fjords, but I'm not sure if I'm ready."No: ""Hvis det er ro du søker," sa Ingrid, "fjorden er det rette stedet.En: "If it's peace you're seeking," said Ingrid, "the fjords are the right place."No: " Hun vendte seg om, men før hun gikk, la hun til: "Noen ganger må du bare stole på din egen magefølelse.En: She turned away, but before she left, she added, "Sometimes you just have to trust your gut feeling."No: "Lars tenkte på det Ingrid hadde sagt mens han nippet til kaffen.En: Lars thought about what Ingrid had said while he sipped the coffee.No: Han måtte virkelig lytte til hjertet sitt.En: He really had to listen to his heart.No: Bak ham satt Kari, en annen besøkende i kaféen, fordypet i en bok.En: Behind him sat Kari, another visitor in the café, engrossed in a book.No: Hun hørte det han og Ingrid snakket om og reiste seg.En: She overheard what he and Ingrid were talking about and stood up.No: "Jeg har vært i fjordene mange ganger," sa Kari med et varmt smil.En: "I've been to the fjords many times," said Kari with a warm smile.No: "Ingen andre steder gir slik fred.En: "No other place gives such peace.No: Du vil ikke angre.En: You won't regret it."No: "Lars visste at han snart måtte ta et valg.En: Lars knew he soon had to make a choice.No: Kaféen var et trygt sted, men lokket med frihet i fjorden var sterkt.En: The café was a safe place, but the lure of freedom in the fjords was strong.No: Plutselig hørtes et horn i det fjerne.En: Suddenly, a horn sounded in the distance.No: Ferjen var klar til å gå.En: The ferry was ready to depart.No: Hjertet hans begynte å banke raskere.En: His heart began to beat faster.No: Tiden var inne.En: The time had come.No: Han reiste seg sakte, la penger på bordet

bestemt.En: "Thank you for the advice," he said with determination.No: Med raskere skritt enn før, gikk Lars ut i den friske Bergensluften.En: With quicker steps than before, Lars went out into the fresh Bergen air.No: Han beveget seg med målrettethet mot ferjekaia, spenningen kjemper mot frykten i brøstet.En: He moved with purpose toward the ferry dock, excitement battling with fear in his chest.No: Da han gikk om bord på ferjen, kjente han en bølge av lettelse.En: As he boarded the ferry, he felt a wave of relief.No: Han hadde valgt eventyret.En: He had chosen adventure.No: I det øyeblikket ferjen begynte å gli ut på vannet, slapp alle bekymringer taket.En: At the moment the ferry began to glide across the water, all his worries released their hold.No: Med fjordene foran seg og byens mas bak seg, følte Lars en ny styrke og nysgjerrighet våkne i ham.En: With the fjords ahead of him and the city's hustle behind, Lars felt a new strength and curiosity awaken within him.No: Med hånden på rekkverket, så han landskapet gli forbi, visste at han endelig var på vei mot den stillheten han hadde lengtet etter.En: With his hand on the railing, he watched the landscape pass by, knowing that he was finally on his way to the tranquility he had longed for.

Welcome to worlds where cunning foxes outsmart bears and humans, where people are turned into wolves, where ogres (stállus) terrorize communities until outwitted, where undead creatures of the sea (rávgas) lure others to their demise. These worlds are illuminated in more than 300 folktales and legends that make up the most extensive compilation of Sámi narratives recorded from Sámi storytellers ever published in English translation: Sámi Folktales from the Near and Far Worlds, originally recorded by Just Knud Qvigstad and Isak Saba and translated by Barbara Sjoholm. Sjoholm is joined here in conversation with Lise Lunge-Larsen.Barbara Sjoholm is an award-winning translator and author of many books, including From Lapland to Sápmi: Collecting and Returning Sámi Craft and Culture and The Palace of the Snow Queen: Winter Travels in Lapland and Sápmi. Among her translations are By the Fire: Sámi Folktales and Legends, collected by Emilie Demant Hatt.Lise Lunge-Larsen is the award-winning author of The Troll with No Heart in His Body and Seven Ways to Trick a Troll. She lives in Duluth, where trolls can still be found if you really look for them. Praise for the book:"Beautifully written, the introduction to Sámi Folktales from the Near and Far Worlds captivates the reader from the very beginning with poetic descriptions of the Sámi landscape, the historical context and thematic characteristics of the storytelling tradition in Sápmi, and an exploration of the relationship between Just Knud Qvigstad and Isak Saba. This book is a valuable collection of Sámi stories."—Line Esborg, Head of Norwegian Folklore Archives, University of Oslo"For decades, these stories have provided contemporary Sámi literature with drama, detail, and inspiration. This collection is a treasure trove for every writer and reader to explore, and it's a gift to the English language that these folktales are now translated."—Elin Anna Labba, author of The Home of the Drowned and The Rocks Will Echo Our Sorrow: The Forced Displacement of the Northern Sámi"The deeper you dig into this collection, the more satisfying it gets. Barbara Sjoholm's introduction is worth its weight in gold."—Lise Lunge-LarsenSámi Folktales from the Near and Far Worlds, collected by Just Knud Qvigstad and Isak Saba and translated by Barbara Sjoholm, is available from University of Minnesota Press.

Martin Helseth has always been drawn to the water. As a kid in Norway, he spent as much time beneath the surface as he did on it—free diving from a boat his father built, discovering a sense of calm and freedom below. Not long after, he found that same feeling in a rowing shell, first picking up the sport at age 10. Through persistence and a deep connection to the water, he rose through the Norwegian system to become a two-time Olympian, competing in both Tokyo and Paris. All the while, free diving remained a constant. In Norway's fjords and lakes, it became more than just an escape—it became a lens. What he saw below the surface was changing. Pollution and marine debris were becoming impossible to ignore. What started as solo cleanups in his spare time grew into something much bigger. Martin began mobilizing his local community, then the rowing world, turning his personal mission into a collective effort. In 2024, he was named a World Rowing Healthy Waters Alliance Ambassador. Now, in partnership with organizations like World Rowing, and the World Wildlife Fund, along with rowing clubs around the globe, Martin is helping lead a movement—one that connects athletes, waterways, and stewardship, and pushes the sport toward a more active role in protecting the environments it depends on.

Pourquoi elle a quitté la Norvège après 7 ans ? Retrouvez ce contenu en version vidéo sur youtube
Aujourd'hui, je vous emmène en Norvège avec Justine, son mari Valentin et leurs deux filles, Mia et Romy, qui avaient 7 ans et 3 ans au moment du voyage. Une famille qui passe sans transition de la galère au confort… selon l'envie du moment.L'été 2022, ils ont pris la route depuis Lille en fourgon aménagé, direction le Danemark puis un ferry de nuit jusqu'à Kristiansand en Norvège. Sur le papier, tout était calé… et très vite, ils ont tout lâché pour suivre une seule chose : le soleil. Ils sont montés vers Røldal puis Odda, ont longé les fjords jusqu'à Koppang, avec des routes bien plus longues que prévu et des ferries qui s'invitent sans prévenir. Puis ils ont ralenti, en restant là où il faisait beau, entre petites balades, jeux pour les enfants et baignades dans l'eau BIEN fraîche des fjords. Avant de redescendre tranquillement vers Hemsedal, Vikersund et Lillesand, avec une pause à Risør… et une dernière étape à Kragerø, face à la mer.Si vous aimez quand un voyage ne se passe pas du tout comme prévu, mais fonctionne quand même — voire mieux — en vous adaptant au jour le jour avec les enfants, vous allez aimer cet épisode.-----------Si l'épisode vous a plu, laissez-moi une note 5 ⭐️ ou un commentaire sur Apple Podcasts ou Spotify

The Great Heathen Army: the cool, or terrifying, name given to a huge Norse army that landed in England in the middle of the 9th century and stayed for 13 years, devastating the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. The Viking leaders are semi-legendary, cloaked in the mythology of the Norse and the scaremongering of the Anglo-Saxons. Was the army really led by the three sons of the infamous Ragnar Lothbrook, as depicted in Assassin's Creed Valhalla? What were they trying to achieve? And after Alfred the Great, would the Great Heathen Army have considered itself successful?Matt Lewis is joined by Dr Caitlin Ellis, Associate Professor of Nordic Medieval History at the University of Oslo.

C dans l'air du 28 octobre 2025 : Budget : le retour des impôts !Six milliards d'euros. Le rendement de la surtaxe sur les grandes entreprises a été revu à la hausse hier à l'Assemblée nationale. Quatre milliards avaient été prévus dans le projet de loi de finance 2026, avant qu'un amendement soit voté à la surprise générale (196 voix pour, 149 contre). Le vote a fracturé le bloc central : Renaissance et LR ont rejeté le texte, contrairement au Modem qui a voté comme LFI, les communistes, le PS, les écologistes. L'extrême droite et la droite fustigent une « folie fiscale ».Le Palais Bourbon est le théâtre de débats houleux depuis le début des débats sur le budget. Les socialistes profitent de leur pouvoir de vie ou de mort sur le gouvernement pour faire monter les enchères. Ils réclament une taxe Zucman « light », ce que refuse l'exécutif. Une stratégie du compromis qui irrite le reste de la gauche et ravive les tensions entre les anciens alliés du Nouveau Front Populaire. Le RN lui, s'est opposé à l'amendement voté hier, comme il s'opposerait à une éventuelle taxe Zucman, allégée ou non.Le bon fonctionnement des services publics est au cœur des discussions. Sur le terrain, certains Français se plaignent du déficit de services publics dans leur département, eux qui pourtant cotisent comme chaque contribuable. C dans l'air a suivi un bus médicalisé parcourant plusieurs villages de Vendée dans le but de lutter contre les déserts médicaux.Pendant ce temps, la Norvège a instauré une taxe de 1,1% sur les patrimoines de plus de 1,7 millions d'euros.

cutting deep into the land was worth every drop of sweat.No: Men Oskar kjente hjertet sitte fast i halsen da han så en smal, steinete vei med et fryktinngytende dyp på den ene siden.En: But Oskar felt his heart stuck in his throat when he saw a narrow, rocky path with a terrifying drop on one side.No: Dette var hans største frykt.En: This was his greatest fear.No: Han stoppet opp, hans støvler plantet fast i bakken.En: He stopped, his boots firmly planted on the ground.No: Ingrid så tilbake og ropte: "Kom igjen, Oskar!En: Ingrid looked back and shouted, "Come on, Oskar!No: Du klarer dette!En: You can do this!"No: "Sven nærmet seg og bøyde seg ned ved siden av Oskar.En: Sven approached and knelt down beside Oskar.No: "Det handler om små steg," sa han mykt.En: "It's about small steps," he said softly.No: "Se på meg og følg etter.En: "Look at me and follow."No: "Oskar måtte ta et valg.En: Oskar had to make a choice.No: Skulle han la frykten bestemme for ham, eller skulle han utfordre seg selv?En: Should he let fear decide for him, or should he challenge himself?No: Han tok et dypt pust, stirrede på den blå himmelen ovenfor og begynte å bevege føttene sakte fremover.En: He took a deep breath, stared at the blue sky above, and began to move his feet slowly forward.No: Stien var smal, og vinden blåste lett, men Sven var alltid nær, med Ingrid like bak.En: The path was narrow, and the wind blew lightly, but Sven was always near, with Ingrid right behind.No: For hver skritt Oskar tok, kjente han frykten gradvis gi slipp.En: With every step Oskar took, he felt the fear gradually release its grip.No: Snart nådde de toppen.En: Soon they reached the top.No: Fjellene foldet seg ut som bølger mot horisonten, og fjorden glitret i det milde høstlyset.En: The mountains unfolded like waves toward the horizon, and the fjord glittered in the gentle autumn light.No: Oskar sto stille, fascinert av naturens storhet.En: Oskar stood still, fascinated by the grandeur of nature.No: Det var en seier over frykten, og en nyvunnet følelse av selvtillit fylte ham.En: It was a victory over fear, and a newfound feeling of confidence filled him.No: "Wow," sa han endelig, og
