Many studies have shown that people gain numerous health benefits from regularly spending time outdoors. This embrace of the “open-air” world is such an important part of Norwegian culture that they have a word for it: friluftsliv. These classes invite students to get out and explore the beauty of the natural world and to feel rejuvenated in the process.
