I gonna end my blogging career today ;-) I really liked to share my exchange year with you and I hope you liked to read the stuff I wrote.
The last days were crazy.
I was on Koster one last time with my hostfamily. The weather wasn't very good and we returned already on Sunday instead of Monday. On Saturday Anne had birthday. I gave her a Swiss Cookery book and a chocolate fondue mix. It was the last time I saw the whole family with Anne, Thorvald, Nina, Tormod, Jessica, Harald and Anne Marit. In the evening we ate a very good dinner (I don't remember what it was) and suddenly Anne came with some presents for me?! I was really surprised. I got a Norwegian pullover which is very beautiful and a foto album with fotos from my whole exchange year. It's so nice! Anne Marit wrote comments in there. I just want to say thank you once more! :-)
Monday and Tuesday, the last two days, I was out with friends. On Monday I got a phone call from Nacho. He was in Greece for one week but he didn't get the permission from AFS for this trip. So he called me and said that he's in Halden right now at Kari's place. AFS said to him he had to travel home from Greece and he have to leave Norway on Wednesday. So he didn't get permission to go to the last camp. I think AFS overreacted in this situation and it was sad he couldn't go to the camp. He said to me that I have to say hello to all the people, especially to the girls ;-).
On Tuesday I ate the last time dinner with the family. I really have to say it wasn't as hard as I expected to say good-bye to them but just because I gonna see them again in 4 weeks. Otherwise it would've been much harder. To say good-bye to Anne Marit was funny. She had to take the train 6:00 am on Wednesday because she was going to travel to north Sweden with her boyfriend Alexander. She woke me up 5:30 am and I was just to tired to be very sad. To say good-bye to all the friends was harder. Of course I gonna see some of them again in 4 weeks too but I can't say for sure who I gonna see and who not.
I miss you all!
I hated to pack. I had to let a lot of stuff there which we gonna take with us when we're gonna visit my hostfamily in the summer holiday. At the end I still had 6 kilos overweight and I thought it's gonna be quite expensive at the airport. But when I was there the woman on the desk just said it's ok with the weight. Lucky me!
To return home after 10 and a half months is really strange. It's like feeling like a foreign person in your own home. It's nice that all my friends here want to meet and do something. So I don't have that much time for just doing nothing and think about everything. Then I also have to clean up my little room. I just have to much stuff now. :-)
The life continues like before just that I don't have to speak Norwegian anymore. One little thing more I have to tell you. On Monday when Kim and me walked through the old city of Solothurn we began to speak Norwegian and said things like this: denne personen er stygge (this person is ugly). It's cool when nobody can understand you ;-)
So, I hope you liked my last post. I wanna say thank you to everybody who read my blog!
Wish you a nice time!!!
Silvan
