Let’s talk about the weekend and our LIVE stream!

We have just spent a great weekend with our team, which consists of the both of us plus Anna (film director) PJ (project manager) and Erik (videographer) to film a large number of episodes, which we will be publishing in the fall. Lots of people think we film each episode the day before it is published, but that would create huge problems for us, should one of us get sick or some other unforeseen event take place. So, we usually meet 3 to 4 weekends per year and film around 14-16 episodes per weekend, so that we may have loads of material to publish, and then plan in advance which episode is published when. And, when we are all gathered here, we make sure to do a Live Stream on the Saturday evening and also make sure to have a great time together afterwards!

This time of the year is special too, as the sun here in southern Norway sets around 11:00pm and it doesn’t get really dark as we  have twilight for a few hours before the sun rises again. We were also delighted that the weather yesterday evening was so fantastic when we did our  Live Stream, as we have always wanted to stream from our garden, and we thought that the setting we created, with a litte help from our stunning garden, was very beautiful! Thanks to everyone who joined in, we really love interacting with you!

So happy with this setting!

So, please enjoy the rerun of the Live Stream here below, and if you scroll past the video, you’ll see some nice photos from this weekend!

Have a great week ahead!
