Hejså Lovely Vikings... It's Carly, Your local Non-Nordic Nordic Girl
I can't believe it is officially Saturday, I just woke up and I'm Binge-Listening all of Mari Boine's albums while making a doodle of myself. For some reason this week went by really slowly. Maybe is because of my gerascophobia, But IDK the real reason why this week went by real fast. Yesterday was great, I nearly forgot my gerascophobia, I got a 90 on a Math Test which is extremely unusual, I am great in Science and History but terrible at Math
So, While I was doing my Social Studies/History Project on Scandinavian-American Immigrants in Texas, I kept thinking to myself Wonder if there are Nordic Activities here in Texas. Because well... Here we don't have a lot of Nordicness, and I am a very big Nordic Nerd. In fact, The main reason I am going to Minnesota for my 14th birthday is just to visit some Nordic Museums, Heritage Centers and Settlements (I will also be visiting other places don't worry)
Anyways, This can be anything Nordic. Stores (I already visited one in Dallas this summer), festivals (PLEASE be those cultural festivals like Nordicfest or Norsk Høst, Instead of Viking Festivals, Since Viking Festivals may have people who are exploiting Nordic culture) or Heritage centers (Museums, Community Centers etc) and Settlements (I went to a Danish Settlement 3 months ago, I posted something about it here on Viking Diaries)
Lemme Know if you find some :D. Espiecally the Festival thing, Nordicfest is in Minnesota and Norsk Høste is in North Dakota. I am going to both (Nordicfest for my birthday, and Norsk Høste for my Middle School Graduation, which is in 2025) I want to see if local Nordic festivals excist in Texas
