Pilot Guides - Norway and Lapland [RQ] torrent

Norway is located on the west coast of Scandinavia. This ruggedly beautiful country is a land of extremes and has one of the coldest climates in Europe. Now known as a peace loving nation it was once home to the most fearsome people in Europe - The Vikings.
