Last summer since late-June to mid-September, I worked voluntarily as a viking in a viking museum in Lofoten. It was the best months I have ever experienced. Not long ago, I applied for a full season there, which is from May 1st to September 15th. 

I got the job! I'll work there from the 15th of June to August the 15th, during the high-season, when the number of tourists is at the largest. So now I have to start getting into shape physically, mentally and superficially. I bought different types of fabric at the viking festival we had last August, which I've made into an authentic tunic and pants, with the help of my mother, who is much more adept with needle and thread than I am.

Here are 2 images from the festival the viking museum had in August, and 2 pictures of me as a visitor some time before.

^ Polish Vikings resting after a mock battle

^ Me handing out throwing axes to museum guests at the firing range. I've upgraded my attire with leather braces (on the forearms, not the teeth, duh :) ), leather pouches and an axe and a shield.

A couple of years ago I visited the museum as a guest myself. Needless to say, I enjoyed it immensly! Here I am hurling throwing axes at the firing range. I had a go at archery aswell, but axe-throwing was my strong suit. It still is.

Later that day I had my first taste of mead. It tasted heavenly! Normally I seldomly like alchohol, but I really loved it! It has a taste of the sweetest honey and a smell of spruce resin. You should definetly try it sometime!
