MUNICH, BERLIN AND ROSKILDE
Jun 26th
The Roskilde festival (Photo: Once again I’ve been very bad at updating the blog, so I’ll give you a heads up on the events of the past week.
My year in Toulouse is over, it all ended June 19th with a big BOOM! The party, BOOM Mousse (foam party) was very fun, even though I don’t really get the point of having foam in a party (messy and your shoes smell).
Before the BOOM I cleaned my apartment and will get my entire deposit back (Promologis is often hard to please aparently)!
The day after the BOOM (Saturday) Cate, Geir and I left for Munich by train with short stops in Bordeaux and Paris. We spent two days there and then we headed to Berlin where we stayed at a friend’s place (thank you Dinah!).
We then took a plane to Copenhagen where we now are staying at Nina’s. We’re staying here with Johannes and Anna-Kari who’s traveling around Scandinavia these days.
It’s been great so far and Cate, Geir, Nina and me are all super excited to go to the Roskilde Festival on Saturday!
Because of that it’ll be more radio silence from me, but bigger updates will come later!
WHERE NEXT?
Jun 6th
Aaah! How good it feels right now. I’m tired, sleepy and have soar throat, but I’m done with the tiring period these 2-3 weeks really have been!
It’s all over now, we had our final presentation of the project that has been ongoing throughout the year. I’m not a big fan of presentations, but I guess it went ok.
Now that it’s all over, what to do next?
Well, the weather in Toulouse was yesterday, and continues today, to be really bad. It’s pouring down! That didn’t stop 21 of us to go out on a good restaurant last night as a goodbye dinner for Malena, who is leaving on Monday. It’s weird how people have been disappearing one by one the last few weeks.
It’s not too long left of my stay here in Toulouse either. To be exact, I’m probably on my way by this time (Saturday 10:30) in two weeks. That is short! Ouh. Tough to think about.
But, it’s going to be two great weeks! I have plenty of time and I have good friends here and good friends coming from Norway! First out is Eivind and Line who are coming today, and then Øystein and Christina are visiting!
And since I’ve booked great weather for the next two weeks, nothing can “ungreat” the last part of this stay!
PS. The voting for “Best international Exchange/Experience Blog 2009″ ends June 7th. Thank you in advance for voting on my blog “Åsmund Abroad”!
