Hjem is not only a home, but also a habitat, a safe haven. Sometimes it is the place where we were born, other times a lifetime is not enough to find it. We choose it ourselves or it chooses us. It is a refuge we seek when we had to abandon our old world. It is a nest in which we raise chicks, a point of reference. Ilona Wiśniewska, who has been associated with Troms for years, takes us on a journey through this extraordinary city that has become her home.

Troms is a city of contrasts: once a snow-covered town, today a dynamically developing center, the third largest in the Arctic. One hundred and fifty nationalities, a melting pot of cultures, a center of scientific life and a popular tourist destination. A city that absorbs or isolates, offers perspectives or leaves no choice. And this applies not only to people, but also to animals. Wiśniewska tells about Troms with the voices of people and birds, finding similar experiences and needs in their fate.

Walking the streets of Troms, the author meets herself and unexpectedly becomes the heroine of this story. Her Hjem is an intimate story about friendship, putting down roots, and the fact that all living beings need a home. This book is an invitation to reflect on one's place in the world and on what home really means to us. It is a reading that remains in the memory long after it is finished, inspiring to seek one's own path and appreciate the bonds that connect us.
