Hiking to Kamtjønn

with one comment

This weekend me and three friends hiked in the south end of the mountain range Trollheimen in Norway. We used the NTNUI Koie “Kamtjønn”. The NTNU Student sports club (NTNUI) maintains 23 hiking cabins for the use of students.

It was a beutiful hike with fantastic weather. Some of the pictures are here or you can view all the pictures in the flickr slideshow.

Dear Georgia

with 7 comments

It is truly disturbing to watch the news about the armed conflict in Georgia. I just got off the phone with my dear friend Nino who is in T’bilisi. She was worried and she was currently trying to convince her little brother not to enlist.

David was in his home village when I talked with him 20 minutes ago, he was worried about his number of friends who were going to the front lines. Still he was in a very positive mood and hoping that the whole thing would be over in two or three days.

For me personally it was very good to get hold of at least these two friends of mine down there. There are many other that have not reached tonight, and I wish you all the best and as you I hope for a peaceful solution to this conflict in the very close future.

We played football with a group of kids in gudishvilis garden, and in the end I gave them my favorite Samfundet t-shirt to remember the strange norwegians who dropped by.
