høst i Norge

I missed Norway - and especially Trondheim - so in the first break of university, I went on a small Norway roundtrip from Oslo to Trondheim to Bergen (by plane) and back to Oslo (by train). That train ride was stunning, but also the rest of the week was lovely. It was so good to talk Norwegian again, to see old and new friends and visit old and new favorite places. I hardly took any photos, but I did take some at one of my new favorite places in Trondheim: Fairytale Cupcakes.

introduction week

Groningen. After my own lovely Erasmus experiences in Trondheim, I decided to join ESN Groningen. Best decision ever - the introduction week that just ended was the best of all weeks I've lived in Groningen, which is a little over 2 years now.

two days in Lëtzebuerg

Luxembourg. Although this country (and city) isn't more than a 2,5 hour drive from my parents' house, neither of us had properly been here before, so we sort of last-minute decided to go on a little road trip. I especially liked:

- the language. One second it sounds like German, the next second like French, but it's neither of them.
- MUDAM Contemporary Art Museum.
- the hot chocolate-on-a-spoon we got in a cute wooden café right next to the royal palace.
- the old part of the city
- and the Postman Pat-like views on our way home again.

Haldern festival

Haldern. For years, this cute little (awesome) festival right across the border from our hometown has been organized, but neither Bernie or I had been there before. We made it in less than an hour (!) and except for that, I was blown away by some other things, too:

- THE LAKE. Haldern is a small town with lots of fields and cows, and this pretty lake not far from the festival camp.
- I ran into a bunch of Slovenian girls I had a highschool exchange with years ago (!).
- Spongebob chocolate isn't only pretty, but tastes good as well.
- and basically everything being so pretty and cute and Beach House's awesome gig.

(Not much fun: I had to leave early because of a throat infection. That, combined with Germans not serving water without gas and the festival not allowing own water bottles at the festival area, made it some quite crappy days.)
