Grass Roofs for Hobbitsies
Middle Earth exists and it's not in New Zealand. It's right here in Norway! I swear. If you knock on on one of these houses doors you'll have a little fellow answer the door and tell you to "Sod" off and yell "No, thank you. We don’t want any more visitors, well-wishers, or distant relations."
Any minute now I'm expecting Bilbo Baggins to come out with a cup of tea and share a smoke with me with his pipeweed...from Eastfarthing.
Alright, movie puns aside. The Scandinavians love to grow "Sod" on their rooftops. They've been doing this for centuries. It was one of the weirdest but coolest things I've ever seen when I was driving around in Norway. I've even seen one homeowner place a goat on his roof so it can trim the grass.
You know what would be cool?
It would cool to grow a different kind of weed up there, you know what I mean? :wink: :wink:
You know the kind that can send you on a trip to Middle Earth and back when you smoke it ;)
Do you like Tolkien?

@adonisabril I love these houses! This is now on my list of places to visit. And great idea about growing the weed up there ... I'd love to sit there and drink some weed tea!

Beautiful. It feels like a place you could think and reflect and come to massive realizations.
By far my favourite fantasy universe (Tolkien). One day I'd like to visit the 'Shire' in NZ where they filmed the movie. My dream would be to marry my girlfriend there lol! I recently had to put up posters in my class for the learners about history and geography- couldn't help but sneak a map of middle earth in there (it's geography / map work afterall).
Thanks for the amazing work

I like this "hobbit" houses so much. And that with the goat is really funny. I would love to see that in a picture. 😁 I like Tolkien, and The Lord of the Rings are my favourite 3 movies.
