It worked out and the vegan fair became an lively event with different workshops & presentations (there were also more people attending them than planned :)), more than 20 exhibitors, a lot of wonderful people and of course a lot of superdelicious vegan treats.īesides for example Lush you could find me&I international (a small company selling vegan clothes), the association of green students of Trondheim (“ Trondheim Grønne studenter“) or for example Norways vegan online shop “Veganlife”. And still the location will probably be changed again next year as it sometimes became quite crowded with 1000 – 1500 visitors during the 5 opening hours of the fair.Īround Christmas time Emma first came up with the thought of organising a vegan fair in Trondheim. But she had to discover quickly that there are much more interested people, so the location was changed. (However, inofficially the Vegetarfestival in Oslo is also vegan and quite big, I heard.) But back to the Vegan Fair: At the beginning Emma, the organiser, expected around 200 visitors. The Trondheim Vegan Fair is officially the first vegan fair in whole Norway. There was the Trondheim Vegan Fair with more than 1000 visitors! Trondheim Vegan Fair However, the first days in Trondheim weren’t quiet at all. Though I think I’m also that kind of person who needs to have a bit of stress (especially if it’s about things I really enjoy to do). But I am also that kind of person who sometimes just needs to sit somewhere (preferably with sunshine :)), listening to music & read a book or just reflect what’s happening at the moment. I also started to do this and that in Tromsø, got a bit stressed by stuff for work and didn’t really take a lot of time just for myself. People told me I’ll become at least after a few days bored… but at the moment I feel pretty good here! The weather forecast for Sundsvall and Höga Kusten didn’t sound so great at the end, so that it might not be worth to go 500 km just for a lot of rain. Moreover I quickly met some nice people in Trondheim and the city itself is also much more beautiful than I expected! So I decided “to be a bit boring” and stay all the week in Trondheim. And it’s awesome! Actually my initial plans were to go to Östersund, Sundsvall and from there to Höga Kusten (Sweden) to hike along the gorgeous-sounding coast. While writing that I’m sitting in the middle of the forest next to Trondheim. Blue sky, almost no clouds, a lot of sunshine, a perfect view and just such a calm environment.
