Closing Time...




After way too much delay, I am posting again. The last two weeks here have been wonderful. I saw the fjords, climbed two mountains, helped build 64 beds and a million loads of laundry and dishes, saw my dear sweet mother who came miles and oceans away to visit me, watched a super sweet Brann football (soccer) game, and am now working the night shift for the hostel on its first day of being open. Its been so fun to get to work hard and see so much progress being made, as well as get to know the people here. Tonight we have about 10 guests, pretty good for our first day.
Building the beds for the hostel was a whole lot of hard work, and it was exceptionally hot for Bergen on those two days. Thankfully, several of Haakon's friends came and helped us build too.




Tonight I made waffels for the guests. Its pretty fun to have the responsibility of taking care of people and helping them out.
More pictures to come. Hadebra!
