His byline has appeared on four different guides to the Scandinavian countries, including Finland.

Born in New York City and raised in Westchester County, Roger Norum (chapters 1, 8–11, and 21 [www.rogernorum.com]) has studied literature and taught creative writing in Norway. He writes and photographs features on travel and food for a number of European magazines, including Departures, Wanderlust, and Olive.
