What it's like here

The sun does shine!

I am in Bergen and loving it. The weather was terrible for the first week, rain rain and more rain, but we still had loads of fun none the less! All they drink is beer here, because everything else is so expensive here! They had lots of events planed for us for the first week so I got to meet so many people. I also had to do a lot of running around trying to get all my important things done. Like trying to get all the money out that I put in a deposit account so I could get my residence permit. Not so easy! I still don't have all of it. They want us to get a bank account, but that's going to take like 3 weeks and I think it'd be pointless for only 3 months, it'd just be a hassle to close down anyways!

Ok back to the fun stuff. Bergen is beautiful when the sun is shining. We have a great view of the lake and mountains. I've already done a hike up one of the mountains and it was just beautiful. I'll attach some pics hopefully so you can see!

We've already planed lots of travelling. We've booked a trip to Croatia and to Barcelona because it's just so cheap! And there will be many more little trips closer to here. Oh and I guess there are some classes in there as well. Some of them started this week, and they don't seem like they will be too bad.
