Hello! What I love most about travelling is experiencing the local cuisine, enjoying the breathtaking views of nature and seeing the charm of everyday local life. I think beauty is in the details and everyone should take the time to experience it. So let me help you find your perfect getaway!
How did you get involved in travel?
"Travelling has always been one of my passions. I have had the opportunity to travel to some of the most beautiful places in Europe. In addition, I have had many exciting experiences working in some of them, such as Sweden and Norway."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Every trip has been unique and rewarding in its own way. One of my favourites to this day, however, is a spontaneous car trip from Estonia to Italy and back. We crossed 11 different countries in the course of two weeks, visiting a few sights, a local café or a shop in each. "

I tried KimKim out of desperation - three weeks until our departure! All I had were airline tickets, and no real knowledge of how to get the most out of our time in Norway. Ethel provided the basic itinerary in two days! She worked very responsively to my questions and our preferences, and Fenne picked the ball up nicely as our trip approached. The result was awesome…great hotels, great excursions and real time answers to any questions I had.
I would strongly recommend KimKim, Ethel and Fenne to any one looking into travel in Norway. A first class team!!!

Thank you for the wonderful feedback and the lovely words of praise for our team! I'm delighted to hear that you had a fabulous time here in Norway!
Our team would be delighted to welcome you again in the future :)

Meet up with our daughter, then to Norway and back home to Oregon. We asked Ethel for help planning a trip that would take us to small towns and the fjords. We wanted to hike and enjoy the outdoors. She planned a fantastic itinerary and booked us into beautiful hotels with lovely views and hiking nearby.
