Singaporean Haris Inoue's 48-day cycling adventure in Norway earned him new admirers, news articles about his exploits and, most unexpectedly, a coffee session with Norway's Ambassador to Singapore, Eivind S. Homme.
The pair hit it off immediately when they sat down for a chat at the Royal Norwegian Embassy in Singapore at Raffles Quay yesterday as Haris recounted his trip, which saw him cover some 2,100km from April 4 to May 21.
