Bergen, Norway

I stay 3 days 2 nights in Bergen. Book bed and breakfast via airbnb. Once I reach Bergen train station, I use my google map and key in the address of the house. Google map say it is 30mins walk, so I thought why not walk. I thought no need to bother the host by asking how to take bus to his place. The first 10mins of walking is fine but as it is going uphill with me dragging the luggage, I start to feel a bit regret. Finally I use 45 mins to reach his house with 30 mins of going uphill.

Once I reach his house, he was so surprise as:
1. I am the only guest that show at his doorstep without bothering him
2. I walk from Bergen train station to his house with my medium size luggage!
3. He ask me, don't you realise my house is on top of Bergen hill?

Once settle my thing with the host, I straight go to the city by bus this time. :)
Bergen is actually very small, you can walk around the city by foot itself. Some pictures of Bergen city.

 The next day, off the Mt Floyen. Most people will go to the city and walk up to Mt Floyen, took the view and come down. Since my host is staying on top of Bergen, so from there I took morning stroll from his house to Mt Floyen and down to the city.

You can take the train up to Mt Floyen and walk back down
This activity is very easy and I saw so many young childrens walking up and down Mt. Floyen
