A Beautiful Living

Welcome to A Beautiful Living! 🌿 I'm a mother of two, wife, historian, and communicator, living in Norway in an old farmhouse from 1870. Here, I celebrate slow living, rural life, and the journey of matrescence. Like any ordinary person, I'm trying to find meaning in everything. In a restless world where we need love, community, and connection more than ever before, I share about what's closest to my heart: the many nuances of motherhood and the experience of becoming and being a mother. I believe in a slower life, where acceptance and love are the norm, and where we can build a better world bit by bit. Since my first blog in 2009, I've tried to put into words what is difficult and elusive to understand, humanizing what has previously been taboo. Motherhood is a patchwork of such processes. On my blog and Instagram (@amongthemeadows), you'll find reflections on my life, embracing the ups and downs, and finding beauty in everyday moments in the tranquil meadows of Norway. Let's spread maternal love and make the world a more peaceful and better place together.

Making a garden

Vi har ikke store hagen, og husene i nabolaget vÃ¥rt er ganske tette. Jeg drømmer om Ã¥ bo mer usjenert og enda nærmere naturen. Men enn sÃ¥ lenge gjør vi det vi kan for Ã¥ skape en hage vi kan bruke og trives i. Det er en prosess og det er tidkrevende. Men jeg elsker virkelig Ã¥ jobbe i hagen, og dropper gjerne alt annet til fordel for Ã¥ grave i jorda. Jeg ser at jeg har fÃ¥tt pÃ¥ meg surfjeset i videoen, men det er slik jeg ser ut nÃ¥r jeg er fokusert. Ikke fordi jeg er grinete (hehe).
