First impression Norway

I wake up early in the morning to go on a city tour with our buddy group from the ESN. Buddy’s are waiting for us in front of the dorm to walk together to the Cathedral in the centre of Kristiansand. We split up in our buddy groups and I’m in group number 1. Christian our buddy leader of today shows us the city, the cheapest supermarkets and some important buildings we have to go to for registration. We pass the Kiwi, this is the cheap supermarket, the police building, Christiansholm festing at the Harbor, bus station/train station, MC Donald’s, the opera building ‘Kilden teatro konserthus’, the fish market ‘fiskebrygga’ and Odderøya the island connected to the city with bridges.

We walk around the island and go to the Waffle House at the tip of the island. The view over the sea and the small islands is beautiful. The weather is nice and the sun shines the whole day. we see many people who come to enjoy the beautiful weather on the island. People are making camp fires on the rocks. Christian told us we are allowed to make fires till April 15.

We Arrive at the Waffle House and it turns out that many people came up with this idea. Despite the cold it’s busier than rush hour in Groningen at the supermarket.
