The archive
The archive presents all articles on this international edition of Sandalsand, 24 at a time. They are sorted in a chronological order.
Use the arrows at the bottom to browse four decades of travels in near and faraway countries. That may be time consuming, even though you can make large jumps. Use the search field here instead, if there is something in particular you are curious about.
Many would prefer to use the menus to find destinations of their choice, special stories about the world, or World Heritage Sites.
This image is from a beach in Norway, but it could have been almost anywhere in the world. By the way, if you want to read stories from Norway, in Norwegian, head for the parallel archive page at Sandalsand Norge.
