I've been here 2.5 days and there are already some noticeable differences to my home in Norway. First, there is sunlight here. They told me I would miss it, and I thought they were kidding...for the first three years. Now, I get it.<br />
<br />
Sunlight. Check.<br />
<br />
Also, there is a fridge here...FULL of beer. And it is ALL FOR ME. That is how much father loves me. Look!<br />

It is also warmer here, but I don't have a picture of that yet.<br />
<br />
I am in the US for five whole weeks, and I have a great month planned where I am determined to relax, see friends, and visit with my family.<br />
<br />
I just have to get over my jet lag first. Apparently it goes both ways! Since I've been waking up at 3.30 each morning--I took the opportunity to watch a sunrise!<br />

Last week I visited Dublin (Ireland, not Georgia) and the Centre for Deaf Studies at Trinity College. And it turns out that a week away was just the best! <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I will admit the days approaching my departure were filled with anxiety and doomsday scenarios. You see, Lindsay now hates the idea of flying. Sigh. Which you can imagine, is quite…inconvenient.</div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Why now?" you may ask. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
"Well, I figure it's time that my luck starts to run out." I respond. </blockquote>
I <i>know</i> this is illogical and goes against the law of probability. But there you have it. Y'all know I'm not a mathematician. I'm a linguist.<br />
<br />
Anyway. You can imagine my relief when I landed in Ireland unscathed. I immediately decided to enjoy myself. So in addition to my meetings at Trinity, where I got to try my horrible hand at Irish Sign Language, and meeting up with old acquaintances met in Australia, I went on a beer and food safari. It was indulgent, and delicious, and full of big-city envy.<br />
<br />
I ate Mexican food, and Indian food, and Vegetarian food, and Irish food, and Japanese food. I drank no less than 8 different kinds of Irish craft beer. Pints of liquid joy. I even had a Guiness too. There aren't many things about living in a big city that I miss--traffic, people, trash--but boy-oh-boy do I miss going out to eat without having to do an hour of research on the Internet beforehand (Paris excepted). Thank you Dublin. I salute you.<br />
<br />
It was also (weirdly) weird to speak English. Like, all the time. And they understood me.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Flying "issue" or not, the next few months are full of travel. Røros/Sweden, Paris, London, maybe Paris again, and Utrecht. Hm.

<br />
With this lucky turn, Vincent and I decided to take my dad on a trip to Røros, an old Norwegian mining town. Rumor has it that it can be cold in the winter, festive for the holiday season, and you can go dogsledding!<br />
<br />
It turns out, all these things are true!<br />
<br />
We had a lovely time walking around the town center (which is very small) and got some lovely photographs on top of the slag heaps (the leftovers of the copper mining that used to go on in the town).<br />
<br />
The next day we were picked up and taken out to <a href="http://www.huskytour.no/" target="_blank">Alaskan Husky Tours</a> where we were greeted by more than 40 <u>very</u> excited puppies and dogs. As we prepared our sleds, the dogs were shaking with excitement. Apparently, they looooove running. With about a three minutes' tutorial we were off!<br />
<br />
The scenery was lovely as we went along a trail through the surrounding forests. That is, when we had the chance to look up. I for one spent a lot of time watching where the dogs pulling my sled were going and also looking down as I tried to figure out how to balance on one foot while I pushed the "please-slow-down-the-sled-thingamabob."<br />
<br />
This trip was an adventure! Even though my dad almost fell off a "cliff," he still didn't let his sled go (which was one of the like three rules we were given)! And then one of the kennel hands was thrown off his sled during a break--the dogs and the sled took off in an instant. Then the main guy had to take my sled and go chase them down (I think he reached them only back at the camp!). So I spent some of the trip riding in someone else's sled…which was scenic, but rather cold.<br />
<br />
This is something worth doing! Maybe even more than once!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Let's just say that I am happy it's Friday.<br />
<br />
I decided to unwind with cooking, music, and booze. While Vincent built our new filing cabinet (which is another slice of heaven all in itself--no one tells you how much paperwork goes into an immigrant life!).<br />

Trondheim.Norwegians have a different idea of what "to go for a walk" means. I remember the first day I arrived here--the first day. On the way from the airport, Ellen asked me, "Hey Lindsay. You wanna go for a walk this afternoon?" I said, "Sure, why not."<br />
<br />
Three hours later, I got home.<br />
<br />
Welcome to Norway.<br />
<br />
On another trip last year, me, Alex, and Anna were like 10 miles into the forest and I saw more than one family with very small children trodding along to some distant hytta to have a coffee and a cinnamon bun. I mean, some of these kids were in strollers. What the … ?<br />
<br />
Welcome to Norway.<br />
<br />
As some you know, I <strike>desperately</strike> need a Norwegian passport. Mostly because I hate paperwork. Yes, America, you are dumb in so so many ways. But I digress. So, I've been trying to do everything really Norwegian lately, hoping it'll speed things along. Brown cheese? Check? Cross-country skiing to a hytta? Check. Brewing beer? Check. Home-made lapper and knekkerbrød? Check. Knitting? Half-check.<br />
<br />
Then I found out there's a race/ hike every year here in Trondheim that goes all over Bymarka, the very huge forest next to city. 30 kilometers, 18.65 miles. So Norwegian.<br />
<br />
Easy-peasy (that's a Norwegian expression you know).<br />
<br />
Some friends of ours, Ane and Audun, had never done the route before either. Were we in? Why, yes, yes we were. Let's do it.<br />
<br />
The fateful day occurred yesterday. And I must repeat, it was a fateful day.<br />
<br />
We all had taken the hike very seriously and went out and partied the night before. I personally got home at like 1:30 in the morning--with just enough beer in me to feel it the next morning. Carb-loading you know. It's what the professionals do.<br />
<br />
We met at a crisp 10 a.m. I needed time to dilute some of the beer. The sky was ominous and it was windy, and cold. Hm. We embarked in good spirits. Rain, wind, or snow. We would do this. Because we were awesome and it must be done.<br />
<br />
Needless to say, the trip took a good nine hours. There was cold. There was rain. There was wind. There was sun. There was clouds. It was like a smorgasbord of weather.<br />
<br />
Welcome to Norway.<br />
<br />
I was particularly pleased with all the rain gear we had just bought. Already got our money's worth.<br />

While my knee and the other parts of my legs are taking revenge on me today, the trip was all-in-all just fantastic.<br />
<br />
Ane, Audun, and Vincent were great trekking comrades--and they even graciously dealt with my whining and complaining (let's just say, they are WAY more in shape than I will ever be).<br />

A month or so ago, a good friend of mine and her brother involved me in a day of home brewing. Making beer at home, you say? Why, what a fantastic idea!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Especially considering that alcohol in Norway is taxed to high heaven and thus makes drinking it everyday less enjoyable…which is a sin, really. Shame on you Norway.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">With that said however, if perhaps circumstances were not so dire we wouldn't have really taken the idea of home brewing to the next level-- i.e., actually doing it. (But of course, maybe we would have…after all, we do have quite a lot of the "for the love of beer" spirit. And we both like making things from scratch.)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Well for whatever reason, we did it. We made beer at home. TWENTY liters of a glorious American India Pale Ale. I've invited this dear friend--her name is Lene--to give us a run down of what went down that day. Get your Google Translate ready people!</span><br />

smake på godsakene. </i><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

During our recent road trip around some of Norway, we passed through an area where a small population of musk oxen live! <a href="http://animals.nationalgeographic.com/animals/mammals/musk-ox/" target="_blank">MUSK OXEN</a>!<blockquote class="tr_bq">
Now, I'm not sure if y'all know it, but I am relatively anxious around large animals. </blockquote>
<div>
In New Zealand, for example, we went horseback riding. And I had to be switched to the really passive, "boring" horse, because my first horse could sense my fear. Then when we rode camels in the outback, I was sore for days because I was squeezing the poor guy/gal so hard with my legs. Then in Thailand a while back, I was so scared on our elephant ride, that I didn't let any part of my body touch the elephant because I didn't want him to sense my fear…like the horse in New Zealand did. You get the pattern. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Yet, despite this I decided a musk ox safari was a good idea.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And it was AWESOME. And tiring. But mostly AWESOME.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Musk oxen are ginormous. And they have really long hair. And they are vegetarians! Also, there are not so many left in Europe, even though there are heaps in Canada apparently. Our guide has studied these gentle giants for many years (I think), and assured us they were perfectly safe….if we stayed more than 200 meters away from them and didn't surprise them. Fair enough. Who likes surprises!?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Somewhat uncharacteristically though, Norway is having a crazy hot summer. Today it's near 30 (that's mid-eighties for you Americans)! Very understandably then, the musk oxen were trying to find some respite from this heat--remember, they have really long hair that is super insulating. So, it is perhaps unsurprising that we found them finally…on top of a mountain.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V39Tz0Us69o/U80PtvWnpfI/AAAAAAAANhA/RryDkXEs_-M/s1600/MuskOxHike.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-V39Tz0Us69o/U80PtvWnpfI/AAAAAAAANhA/RryDkXEs_-M/s1600/MuskOxHike.jpeg" height="225" width="400" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Eh. If we wanted to see them, that is where we had to go our guide said. So, we proceeded to hike 2 1/2 hours up the mountain. I was getting quite nervous as we approached, because I could just imagine us spooking one or all of them--giving them no choice but to head bash us off the side of the mountain.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xxb8Bcx6KOw/U80P_Nx4T2I/AAAAAAAANhI/DjctUIVUZ8Y/s1600/DSC_0854.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xxb8Bcx6KOw/U80P_Nx4T2I/AAAAAAAANhI/DjctUIVUZ8Y/s1600/DSC_0854.JPG" height="225" width="400" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However, our guide stayed true to his word. We stayed quite a distance away from them. I could tell that the musk oxen could see us, but that they just couldn't be bothered with us. It was too hot. They were taking a nap on the cool breezy mountain top.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
See the one all alone on the far left in the photo? He is the leader, and I guess he wanted some me-time.</div>

Above all else I guess-- vacation. They have that here in Norway. And lots of it! This is my first paid vacation, and it is pretty lovely, I must say. Those Norwegians are on to something.<br />
<br />
To top it all off my mother is here! Hi Mom!<br />
<br />
As part of her trip, we decided to take five days and meander our way south of Trondheim along the Atlantic Road, through to Åndalsnes, with a stop over in Dombås and then back up to Trondheim. A big circle really.<br />
<br />
And it was lovely circle indeed. As a friend who recently made a similar trip said, "It's like ugh-not-another-crazy-beautiful-scene-that-we-must-stop-for-and-get-a-photo the entire way." He was right. Crazy gorgeous. The whole way.<br />
<br />

<br />
The landscape in this part of Norway is stunning. All kinds of geography juxtaposed in a way that is never tiring. Yay!<br />
<br />
But, we didn't just look at landscapes the whole time. We also visited two <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stave_church" target="_blank">stave churches</a>, hiked to the top of a mountain in search of a cave, and went on a musk ox safari!<br />
<br />
<br />

Crazy, right? <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That means that during the summer, much of Norway has very, very long days. And in cities like Tromsø, the sun never actually goes below the horizon. The midnight sun! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was lucky enough to spend mid-summer there last week with my lovely linguist-colleagues. Before I left, more than one of you asked for a picture of the midnight sun. </div>

Norway's 17th of Mays are full of parades, champagne breakfasts, friends and family, BBQs and the drinking of beverages…kind of like the 4th of July or Australia Day, but with more fancy costumes! Our dear friends Erik and Lene invited us over to partake in these traditional festivities, and it was just so lovely! We started the day with a champagne breakfast which ended with a super tasty pavlova!<br />

<br />
Last weekend I was finally introduced to the Norwegian concept of "hytte." Now, the English translation doesn't do this concept justice--after all, the word "cabin" is not so exciting, and it doesn't bring back an overwhelming sense of nostalgia and comfort that the word "hytte" does for Norwegians.<br />
<br />
Norwegian cabins are memories from old. The best ones are the most rustic--extra points goes to those lacking water (hot or cold) and electricity. The more remote the better, with many being only accessible on foot or by skis.<br />
<br />
Now, the first "hytta" we went to was in Åre with Erik and Lene. But that one was more like a house, and it had luxuries such as electricity, a driveway, and a sauna. That hytta was misleading in every sense of the term.<br />
<br />
But last weekend Guri took me, Torill, and Anna-Lena to her hytta near Røros (about a kilometer from the Swedish border). This was the real deal y'all. It was in the woods. We had to ski to get there!<br />
<br />

It was a bit fancy because it had lights at night powered by a solar panel, and we could heat up water on the wood stove. But still--it is about as rustic as I am willing to get.<br />
<br />
It was also so lovely!<br />
<br />
We had a nice few days skiing, eating, and drinking craft beer. Good company and good conversation.<br />
<br />
I can see why Norwegians like their cabins so much. Time away from the hustle and bustle is good for the soul.<br />
<br />
And as a plus, I got to stock up on vegetarian food with a quick stop-over to a grocery store in Sweden. To keep things frozen Torill made me a snow-fridge!<br />

A nice memory of winter to take with me as we move into Spring.<br />

This time we went to a ski town called Åre where we stayed in a super fancy cabin that was nicer than our apartment. It had a sauna in one of the bathrooms, people. And a dryer in the hallway for all your wet shoes and jackets.<br />
<br />
Erik and Lene are sooooo fancy!<br />
<br />
There was snow in Åre. Which meant one thing. And I mean only one thing. Skiing.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Bp2AvOrO7FM/UzRnfVNwkMI/AAAAAAAANAo/8j2z_VLQ6TY/s1600/IMG_20140314_095555.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Bp2AvOrO7FM/UzRnfVNwkMI/AAAAAAAANAo/8j2z_VLQ6TY/s1600/IMG_20140314_095555.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
If you know me, you know I have never snow-skiied before. Where I grew up "skiing" meant on water. So, I definitely felt a bit out of my comfort zone when we "hit the slopes," as they say, and I tried on my first pair of ski boots.<br />
<br />
Let's just say I was correct to feel out of place. Everyone was skiing. Even 7-day-old babies. And they were all better than me. I saw like a three-year-old go full speed down a hill backwards, <i>as if he was going forward</i>. How in whatever was I supposed to even try and contend with that?<br />
<br />
Now, Lene, Erik, and Vincent were the most gracious of friends. They all were very patient with my whining, and even calmly explained why a helicopter couldn't come and get me and take me back down the mountain (apparently we were only on a "blue" hill and it was only like 1/2 a kilometer from the ski lodge. Swedes have no compassion.).<br />
<br />
<br />
Let's just say my first day of skiing was stressful and constantly terrifying. And even though I didn't really fall… I didn't really ski either. I guess I am not one to give myself over to gravity, when I'm going down a mountain. It's just not my thing. Eh.<br />
<br />

But then. The next day happened. The sun was out and the snow was fresh as powder. A perfect day to try my feet at cross-country skiing. And holy crap, y'all, it was so fun. Like taking a run or a hike through the forest. So pretty! Plus, where we were, the hills were not so steep and I could just trust the tracks to guide me to safety. Plus, Lene never left my side and kept me calm, so I didn't try to get out of the tracks--because that would have ended less well. Thank you Lene!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
So. There you have it. Lindsay likes cross-country skiing. She doesn't like downhill skiing so much. But, hey! She loves to drink beer. So you can always still invite her on your ski trips to Sweden.<br />

It also, conveniently, is very close to Trondheim!<br />
<br />
A two-hour train ride directly east will land you at the border, and another two hours will take you to Østersund--a nice little town next to a very, very large lake (which at the moment is kind of frozen).<br />
<br />
Vincent and I went there for the weekend. To relax and see a new place*.<br />
<br />
As most of you know, I do not enjoy eating out. Salad and french fries is a common theme. And for whatever reason, such meals fail to impress. In fact, finding suitable food is one of the most stressful part about traveling for me**. Just ask Vincent.<br />
<br />
So you can imagine how happy I was when I sat down to a most delightful meal at a restaurant called <a href="http://www.sirwinston.se/" target="_blank">Sir Winston</a>. Of course it helped that they served delicious ales from a local microbrewery. Even so, I have to admit it is a meal I won't forget anytime soon. Also, the servers were fantastic. They even spoke Swedish to us the whole night, which was highly amusing because we were speaking our advanced beginner Norwegian. But they stuck it out with us and we left very pleased with ourselves. I guess if you wanna practice Norwegian, you should go to Sweden.<br />
<br />
Another Østersund highlight is that it lies on the edge of a very large "frozen" lake. I use the "frozen" loosely. As you can see, the lake was only frozen in parts, even though this didn't seem to deter anyone from walking, skiing, biking, and playing with their dog on it.<br />

Vincent and I even managed a couple of kilometers on it without perishing into the icy depths!<br />

<br />
Next weekend, we are off to another Swedish destination--the ski town of Åre--with Erik and Lene. Fingers crossed there is snow. This may be THE chance I have this year to try skiing!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
* And we figured that since we were there, we should also drink cheap, but absolutely delicious, beer and buy groceries.<br />

<br />
After months of watching weather forecasts and scanning the skies for a clear, starry night with a pinch of magnetic activity, Vincent and I finally got our first glimpse of the Northern Lights.<br />
<br />
They were so beautiful and lovely. And mysterious. And minty green.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
They were also very quiet. Actually, now that I think about it, maybe they seemed quiet, because we were alone on the top a mountain at midnight. Hm.<br />
<br />
In any case, they would tip toe across the night sky--like they didn't want you to notice them--and then would disappear... only to re-emerge again a minute later in another direction.<br />
<br />
Sneaky Northern Lights.<br />

Is it really 2014? Hm. I'm not sure when that happened (well, actually, I do know when that happened. I was present for it amidst a town's fervent attempt to all become rocket scientists at once).<br />
<br />
The past few month or so has sledded by (hehe), I must say. We had snow; it was pretty and slippery and bright all at the same time. Then it melted. Now it is dark and cold, but surprisingly cozy most of the time. The Norwegians know how to face the winter with grace and good cheer, also juleøl helps.<br />
<br />
I went to Copenhagen (that's in Demark), met a bunch of signed language linguists from all over Scandinavia, drank "cheap" beer, wandered around the fantastical world of Tivoli, accidentally stumbled into Christiana, ate vegetarian food, did some work, learned some more Norwegian Sign Language (and some Norwegian for that matter), and then went home.<br />
<br />
A few days later, we went to Oslo. More specifically, Nesodden. No snow there either, but Jeanine was there! And we all had a lovely (<strike>alcohol</strike> joy-filled) Christmas. Vincent got to try all sorts of awful Norwegian delicacies, and there was aquavit for all. Good times.<br />
<br />
Most recently was a New Year's Eve party filled with good food, good drink, and good company.<br />
<br />
Now the New Year begins.<br />
<br />

I took a work trip to Bergen (the second largest city in Norway, in the south west), where I had a two day meeting conducted entirely in Norwegian Sign Language and spoken Norwegian. It was very productive. And, if I may say so myself, I did relatively well considering I've only been in the country for 4 months, AND they speak a different dialect, AND write in a different language there.<br />
<br />
Also. I met a troll. A friendly one.<br />

<br />
I weaved this basket by hand using dried strips of tree parts. It took only six hours. And I only almost cut my finger off with a pair of plier-scissors.<br />
<br />
Let's just say that while it was fun and I had visions of becoming a great basket weaver, renowned across Norway and the world, my practical side says that this is probably one of the last baskets I will ever weave. It's not sad though. I have this one. And it is pretty big, you could probably put like 20 onions in there. Or as I told Anna, at least 6 bottles of wine.<br />
<br />
With those adventures behind me, I look forward to the next month which holds a trip to Copenhagen, a few company parties, and Christmas in Oslo. And apparently I am going to learn how to ski. On snow, frozen water. In the dark.<br />
<br />
Because yes, yes, it is getting dark now. This photo is from today at 4:30 pm, and actually makes the sky look lighter than it was. Think middle of the night dark.<br />

And one of the great things about our location is that we're only a kilometer or two away from Ladestein, which is a trail that hugs the coastline around Lade. It goes for more kilometers than I can run, and the views of the fjord are, well, they are wonderful. I like it there.<br />
<br />
Last night, I went for a walk around Ladestein with my new friend and colleague Torill.<br />
<br />
Apart from her lovely company, I also had the chance to practice taking photographs of sunsets with my new camera. You see, usually I am running that trail, and we all know that Lindsay should not carry expensive things while running. Also, I <strike>rarely</strike> never run at night--again, that's just asking for trouble.<br />
<br />
So, here you are: <a href="https://picasaweb.google.com/111436859483910622141/SunsetPractice" target="_blank">The view from Ladestein on a gorgeous summer evening.</a><br />

I was happy with how the photos turned out since I only have a camera, and not any other fancy equipment. I guess the view and the weather helped out a lot. Thank you nice view.

<br />
First, I am a cookie monster. I think the year and a half without an oven gave me cookie-withdrawal that didn't manifest itself until now. It's ugly. But, if you want cookies--come on over.<br />
<br />
Second, I hate building furniture. It makes me very cranky and causes bruising. "It's like legos" is complete crap. That's just the kool-aid IKEA gives you. But, I don't like kool-aid. And I don't like building furniture.<br />
<br />
I think it's important that we always continue learning about ourselves.<br />

<br />
The problem, though, is that Lindsay doesn't really speak Norwegian. I mean, don't get me wrong, I know like five sentences. But that doesn't really cut it for the day-to-day email necessities.<br />
<br />
So, I've been turning to Google Translate for most of my email-reading needs.<br />
<br />
This is part of a translation of an email I got yesterday:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
As recently as today, some of you received a message that the mailbox is allegedly drunk, with a link to validate your e-mail account.</blockquote>
My first question is: how can mailboxes even afford to get drunk? The cheapest six-pack I can find is still like $25.<br />
<br />
Sheesh. Share the love mailbox.<br />
<br />
Although, to be fair, I guess my mailbox (if they're talking about mine) is only <i>allegedly drunk</i>. Not certainly drunk. Maybe I should not rush to judgement.<br />
<br />
Also--I haven't quite figured out why my allegedly drunk mailbox would like me to validate my email account. If it's so drunk, I doubt it's very concerned about me getting my email. But, perhaps Norwegian mailboxes are just that damn hard-working and caring. <br />
<br />
Oh for the love of drunk Norwegian mailboxes. Why can't we all be like you?<br />

I do.<br />
<br />
I mean, I really believe it's statistically significant.<br />
<br />
Now, I don't <i>feel</i> especially young when I wear my hair this way. In fact, it's just kind of my go-to-do when it's raining.<br />
<br />
Hm.<br />
<br />
But I'd be interested to see if this is true for others. Let me know.<br />

Everything is going really well. Surprising, given my history of ridiculous-encounters-with-humanity. Let's knock on wood people. I need this.<br />
<br />
I'm staying in a lovely share-house at the moment in a great locale. A beautiful trail along the Nidelva is only five minutes away! And so is a grocery store (!!!!). In just ten minutes I can be in the center of town, meeting up with people and/or enjoying a nice coffee. I'm also about a three minute walk from my bus to work (a trip that only takes 10 minutes!). Not too shabby.<br />
<br />
I have to say I'm enjoying the smaller-city-life. Less people. More nature.<br />
<br />
Oh! And I learned that nothing in the fjords can kill me! Kayaking here I come!<br />
