OUR LITTLE NORWAY
Our Little Norway is a tribute to the people who are a part of shaping our country - those who follow their passion, preserve traditions and create new expressions with roots in Norwegian heritage.
Whether it's small initiatives or large projects, we want to highlight those who dare to follow their dreams. For many, it's more than just a job - it's a lifestyle, a passion, a way of expressing who they are.
This is a tribute to our country. A tribute to voices big and small that show that we don't need to look beyond national borders to find inspiration – Norway is its own style, its own expression, with values, contrasts and distinctive features that we are proud of.
Our Little Norway is also about belonging. To places that mean something, and to the people who create, preserve and share.
Through this project, we want to promote people who inspire us - those who give our country its unique character, and who everyday takes part in defining Our Little Norway.
