How to Talk to Norwegians
Because of their extreme shyness, Norwegians might seem like some of the most confusing people you’ve ever met. Visiting Norway for the first time, you may feel like you’ve landed on a different planet rather than a different country. This doesn't mean that you should avoid talking to Norwegians or visiting Norway. In order to interact with Norwegians, you need to get a look into the well-established rules and customs that control the social interaction between them, even though it may seem like they’ve been taken a bit too far. This guide will explain some of these rules and make sure that, once in Norway, you will be able to act as ‘Norwegian’ as possible.

The Joys of Hiking
In Washington, it tends to rain a lot. So one weekend in the fall, the forecast said it was going to be sunny, and I had to take advantage of that. I invited some friends and we went to Granite Mountain. Granite Mountain is a relatively difficult hike that ends in a pretty fun scramble. The whole way up, it was basically an unspoken race between me and two of my friends.

Why the Top Gear Reboot Isn't That Bad
News hit the nation when it was revealed that Jeremy Clarkson had been sacked by the BBC after his actions towards the producer of the show.

It turned out that Top Gear would remain with the BBC and Clarkson, May and Hammond would have to go their own way and create something new.

Disney California Adventure
Failure Disney's California Adventure might not be the worst entertainment idea ever to come out of the Golden State—after all, someone thought it was a good idea to make a feature film about emojis, but it very well could be the worst that ever came out of the house that Walt built.
