Bergen, August 29-2007  OK, a little bit confused? This will be an English/Norwegian Blog, so all my friends and others can understand it. Today is the big "packing" day. We're leaving tomorrow morning. So the afternoon wil be bussy. The temperature here in Bergen is now 8 degrees celsius. So…

I never would have thought a cruise along the western coast of Norway would have been worthwile, but after my grandmother took my sister and I, I realized it was spectacular. The landscape had a harsh, rugged beauty and the near 24-hour sunlight within the arctic circle was really an experience. Bergen was the largest city in Norway (but has only 250,000 inhabitants). The hiking was just phenomenal - especially when we climbed on a glacier.

Drastický budíček z predchádzajúceho dňa sme si už nezopakovali. Po raňajkách sa nám Hošo s Johan premenili na demenťákov a cestou v aute sme mali o zábavu postarané. Halucinogénna káva, z ktorej si dali mala účinky asi tak pol hodiny. Do Bergenu sme prišli okolo 11tej, ale hodn…

Bergen is a very nice city but very rainy, too. It's famous for his dockland "Bryggen". After every serious fire the people rebuilt the framehouses. Because of that they look the same like 800 years before. A nice view over Bergen you have on the viewpoint Floyen (320m). To go there you can take th…

I can remember from the past that I got very bored on the boat. Only after twenty minutes I had seen everything and sailing on an empty lake or see was terribly boring. The boat to Norway takes a whole night and the biggest part of the day. And yet it isn't boring (anymore??). …

My first trip abroad and first pictures i took

Photos taken during GLACSWEB 2006 expedition to Briksdalsbreen Glacier, Norway

Bergen, I was a ERASMUS exchange student.

The most expensive country in the world. Which is what prompted me to hitch hike about 1000 miles from high above the arctic circle to Bergen in November by myself.

Un rêve...

I left my bag on a train in November 2007 in Sweden and got a major blessing as i got the bag back in March 2008 nothing was stolen. It was amazing to see pictures that i thought were lost forever, these were pictures of my first trip to Norway, where i became a bit of a trekker lol, the love affair with Norway and Sweden started there i think :-).

My trip To Bergen Norway

This is a kind of spur of the moment trip that I decided to take before it gets too cold and I lose the season. I bought the outbound ticket with 3 days advance and have not booked any hotels or travel or return flight. I looked at the map and kind of plotted out a route, maximizing my weekends in countries where I want to check out the nightlife. Planning to visit about 10 countries that I have nor been to before to get an idea of both the day, night life (very different) and history.

I´m in Bergen on the west coast of Norway. I have just got this new smal videokamera called HF10 from canon. I go out together with my frrien Helge and took still photo with it to see its performance in low light. The pictures are experimental...lets call it art :)
