Hi, I'm Thor Fjellheim. I've lived above a fjord in western Norway my whole life, in a house where the power going out in January is a Tuesday, not an emergency. On this channel I share what sixty-plus years up here have taught me. How I heat a house for less. How I plant, forage and put food up through spring and autumn so it keeps without a freezer humming around the clock. How I mend a thing instead of buying another one. And how a country famous for hard weather still manages to spend less than you'd think staying warm, fed and self-sufficient, in every season of the year. New videos go up regularly.
