Are Kalvø è cresciuto in un paesino da fiaba nel Nordovest della Norvegia, circondato da fiordi e montagne e visitato da milioni di persone provenienti da tutto il mondo. Eppure lui non è un uomo da "aria aperta»" e, una volta trasferitosi in città, non si è più guardato indietro. Ma questo non è mai stato un problema.
