Lofoten

This was the best trip I’ve ever done! I went to Lofoten with zero expectations and had nothing planned which was the best desicion. Every day was an adventure. I was there at the beggining of the off season so it wasn’t full of tourists. The budes very running very sporadicly but usually accordning to the time schedule. I also hitch hiked and stayed with people from couchsurfing. Felt very safe throughout the whole trip.
