Lovely visitors all the way from Argentina! 🇦🇷❤️

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming some lovely visitors from Argentina who had taken the bus out to beautiful Sommarøy. They had planned to catch the bus back to Tromsø, but discovered there was no return service. Luckily, we were happy to help them arrange a taxi, and we even had time for a lovely chat in Spanish! 🥰 Thank you for visiting, Miriam and company! It’s little moments like these that make our days at Havfrua so special. ❤️

A lovely reunion at Havfrua! ❤️

Today we had a lovely visit from Xavier and Cindy! Xavier is a tour guide who has been bringing tourists to Havfrua for several years. This time, he wasn’t working – he was enjoying a private holiday with his girlfriend Cindy. It was especially nice that they still chose to stop by and visit us on Sommarøy! 🥰 Thank you both for visiting, and enjoy the rest of your holiday! ❤️
