It's also possible to sleep in such little red cabins near the water for those who want the full norwegian experience. #norway #lofoten #waterlust](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6345205/6175fd30-6834-412d-a1aa-e969f0676b7b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ![During my #roadtrip through Lofoten in northern Norway I drove past this incredibly beautiful place.
