Summer in Norway is a season of enchantment, a time to move through hours of almost endless light, to sit in a garden or on a sea rock, reading or watching a lone fisherman calmly cast his line into the still waters of a fjord.—Eric Andersen

Join singer-songwriter Eric Andersen as he explores the coast of Norway in the October 1999 issue of TRAVELER.
