The aim of this site is not to merely trot out historical facts - you can read all about who did what, where, when and to whom elsewhere. No, what we are about here are people's personal experiences of the Viking world - what people have done, and where they have been. It might be a museum visit, an article about a re-enactment group, or a poem or story someone has written.
