Norway officially knows I'm here. The American crew went down to the police station the other day and we declared our presence. The process wasn't hard, just involved a lot of waiting. Mostly an hour of sitting in the lobby and then five minutes of getting the little visa sticker stuck in my passport.
It's kind of funny because the lady I was sitting next to in the lobby turned to Paul and said "you sound American." Turns out she's from Seattle originally, but while doing peace core work in Africa she met a Norwegian man and has been living in Norway ever since. Pretty small world to be randomly sitting next to another Seattlite in Hamar.
Most other people at school have by now started their classes, but I have to do anything remotely school oriented since the first day. I just get to sleep in and be lazy for the day. Maybe go for a walk, cook a meal, but nothing to hard. It's a pretty relaxed week and I'm excited for classes to start on Monday so that my day may have a little more structure.
well thats all for now folks
ha det

Eric!
ReplyDeleteYou're in Norway! But 2010 is getting closer. When I was in Ireland the lady who owned the coffee shop in the tiny village I lived in was from Seattle. It was weird.
Put lots of pictures up, because I have a short attention span and never learned to read...
