The King and Queen of Norway

The King of Norway and His Royal Family are honored and loved by the Norwegians.

They visit small towns as well as the big cities, constantly keeping in touch with the people.

It not uncommon to see the royal couple being out for a walk in the park or on skis on the slopes.

Also, the royal family of Norway travel all around the world, representing their country and supporting many worthy causes.

"To be king is not a job, but an existence", said His Majesty King Harald while the relaxed royal couple met with journalists from many Nordic countries.

Questions comprised of everything from the future of the Norwegian Monarchy; terror threats against Norway; the rich gas and oil adventures in Norway, to raising children. (Source: Henrik Width, Presseråd, Den Norske Ambassade, Finland).

The Royal Family of Norway have chosen to live normal lives without much glitter, and therefore they can easily relate to the people of Norway whom they love and have good contact.

Norwegians are not much for glamour, especially not from Norwegian celebrities. But a little glamour is OK, isn't?
