I'm a young girl living close to Oslo the capital of Norway. To travel, see new places, meet new people, eat different food, listen to different music and experience the mysteries of an unknown country is the best way of living! For the moment SouthAmerica and the Caribbean are the places I would like to explore the most. Partly because I'm in a learningprosess when it comes to spanish, which is an absolutely lovely language:)My goal with the spanish is one day being able to work with charity in a spanish speaking country.

Fell free to leave comments on my site!

Enjoy the magic of traveling,
Talk to you soon

The ticket to Cabarete is booked and paid for. 17 more days and I will be leaving Norway and head west to Dominican Republic. I'll be gone for almost a month, if it was up to me I would have stayed longer but my exams will be expecting me here in Oslo in June. I've started to pack already. The switch from norwegian spring to dominican summer is not only easy. What should I bring? I came back from Cabarete for almost 5 months ago, the heath over there feels very unreal now.

So tanktops, tshirts, skirts and shorts are everything i've packed ... read more

A normal day would begin at 6.30 in the morning. Then i wake up to go surfing. The dresscode was surfingshorts, havaianas and bikini, no makeup or hairdressing included. Then after some three or four hours of surfing I returned to our apartment at Ali's surfcamp, it was time for a little lunch and maybe some minutes of sleep before school at 1PM. Then we spent 4 hours at school, plugging our spanish. After school ... read more

While studying spanish in Cabarete we had a week off now and then. During one of the weeks my friend Susann and I decided to go to Cuba to explore one of the last communist countries in the world. We left Cabarete early the 23th of october. Our plane left from Santo Doming (5hour bussride away). We arrived the airport exited to go to Cuba, but we was met by a big neonsign telling us that the flight to Habana was cancelled. The reason was Wilma, she had decided to pay Habana a visit the same day. A friend from Santo Domingo, Juan Carlos, picked us up at the airport and we spent the evening with him. The day, which had started pretty bad developed to be a very good day after all. The next day ... read more
