Eventually I made it to the Kristiansand bus stop and was able to meet some of the other international students and Erasmus Student Network "buddies." First five people I talked to were from Deutschland - about 40% of all international students this year are German. Got a quick nap in before my roommate arrived (German, of course). Headed to the beach with my roommate and about ten other Germans. Everyone's English seems pretty good, but I think they kept forgetting that I was American because the German was flowing fast and furious. Really struggling with the time difference.

ReplyDeleteThe beach looks beautiful. What is the temperature and do people swim here?
ReplyDeleteI have seen people swim but it looks pretty cold.
ReplyDeleteI shared your blog. You may get a few replies.
ReplyDeleteOk. Not sure that last thing took. So, I will try again. Love the pictures. Keep them coming as I am living vicariously through you. Have fun!

Wow! You don't see terrain like that in Minnesota, or even in Nebraska. The Trolls Tongue kind of looks like Pride Rock from The Lion King.
ReplyDeleteAwesome pictures! You should take a picture of your group when you get to these spectacular places. Yikes! What did it feel like to be sitting on the Troll's Tongue (top of the world)?
ReplyDeleteIt felt pretty neat, but I couldn't sit on the edge very long without getting vertigo!
