I am a simple creature with dumb seratonin-based needs. Reading about Framheim* makes me so happy… like the details of Amundsen’s men overhauling their equipment and digging snow tunnels, the cleverly designed breaks in routine and the fact they built a fucking sauna. The fact that Olav Bjaaland randomly decided to build a violin until he realise that building a violin is quite difficult. Humans are so strange and awesome.
