Tickets are booked, countdown started and I'm going to celebrate christmas and new year in Australia! I really can't wait! Like last time, I'm traveling by my self - no problem in Australia, maybe a bit boring on the 29 hour long trip over and 26 hour trip back home.
The trip isn't planned at all, all I know at this stage is that I'm arriving in Perth and departing from Sydney a month later. Suggestions to what I can do or go? Please tell me about it!

It's nothing like home?
Hi! Sorry for not blogging in a while, but I'm back in Norway, started school and stuff like that. School's great, have lot of fun, many new friends, but also a lot of homework, essays and boring stuff too. But more about that later, first I'm going to update you about my last days on interrail:
I had a great time visiting my aunt i Germany, but it was also nice to move on - I don't like to stay at the same place for too long. So I headed of to Frankfurt to take the plane to Arlanda, Stockholm - but lucky me, I managed to twist my foot (with my backpack on my back), so I had a nice swollen foot and a lot of pain.. Well, shit happens and swellings disappear.
Stockholm was nice, but very boring too - it basically reminded me too much of Oslo, and that's a bit boring. Meeting up with my Swedish brother, and hang out with him a whole day, that was great. He's such a cool guy!
The hostel I stayed in in Stockholm was brand new so I think I was the third guest staying there. It was a nice place, the host was Russian of some sort, but have studied in Norway and lived in Sweden in ages - however he still only spoke English to me. Funny. This was actually the hostel I had the most trouble getting friends. Then again, I can't get friends for life everywhere.
After a few days in Stockholm, I got a plane with only 25 seats to Trondheim. It was a nice ride if I ignore all the turbulence. At the airport were my sister, brither-in-law, mum, Per Øyvind and my almost five year old nephew waiting. That was nice, and nothing is like lunch at IKEA.

Wuhu!
Family, friends, I'm still alive. Right now I'm in Altenfeld, Thüringen, at my aunts house. To be honest, this is in the middle of nowhere, but it's calm and I don't have to stress. But, it is in the middle of nowhere, and I have even been stopped in the middle of the street here and asked if I really lived here. So small is the place. I also have to apoligise to you all for taking so long to update my blog (and my very pooor and bad English, it seems like it has disappeared out of my head after I entered Germany and had to speak German).
I have a lot to tell you all; I've seen orange snails and have drunk water from the Magic forrest, so now I can fly. I miss all my friends. I miss Budapest abnd that crazy ass hippie-hostel and Ty and Kara. And Iris. Some persons in my family are to put it mildly... crazy. Others aren't. I have visited lots of family and family of my family, which I'm not related to, but had a lot of spaß. I joined MAnfred for work one day - now I can build roads. I've been car sick... A lot of car sick. I've gained two kilos here at Tante Barbara (I had lost eight, aber nicht mehr). I've experienced thunder and lightning in every country but Italy. My head has a wonderful language soup; I think in three languages at the same time, and when I try to speak it's all jibberish!
Photos will come later, but hopefully sooner.
I hope y'all are alright. Lots of love from Altenfeld!

Buda
Everybody - I'm alright, eventhough my sister have called my mother and said that I'm thrown of the train between Moscow and St. Petersburg. The truth is, I'm in Hungary, and I have a very good time. Today it has been pouring down and been thoundering a bit, but that's allright. I have also booked a seet for Munich, a plain to Stockholm and a plain from Stockholm to Trondheim. No need to worry.
I feel happy here, but I'm comming home. Sooner or later.

Tamtam!
Hey everybody! Rome was great, and I sadly had to leave it not to long ago. But, like most people I left a mark - more precisely Pepsi Twits stains in the ceiling. I also made Dan, the "bodygurad", cut his long disgusting hair short!
My journey from Roma wasn't very fun to put it mildly - I slept in a 5 m2 sleeper room vith five other ladies. No air con, no space. Guess who got a cold! So now I have clogged sinuses and a sore throat. Yay!
Vienna was nice. Tom and I, Tom is a guy I met in Berlin, met up there, we went to the Schoenbrunn castle and saw the gardens. We walked randomly around. And Tom set of the firealarm when he was making his breakfast. Tom claims that it was the best 400 Euro sandwich ever. Tom also says he's the coolest guy ever. He's also a douche. Hahah. No, just kidding.
Now we have left Vienna, and we are on a secret mission in an uknown destination. So, Mamma, if you read this - don't be worried (Tom says he looking after me, but I don't trust him)!

This is Rome
and not Sparta! Rome is very nice, and I love it, but as my mother said the other day, I was expecting and was prepared for everything on this trip - except the heat!
I came to Rome early on saturday, and was planning to meet up with James, who I met in Berlin. But James didn't meet me where we had planned, so I ate lunch by my self. Later on the way back home, started this "student" from the university to follow me around, and he wasn't evern scared of by my "boyfriend" that waited for me, and expected me at anytime. I managed in the end to shake him of, but of course he managed to kiss me in the cheek, before I ran of. Back at the hostel did I sleep the next three hours.
The next day (yesterday) was equally hot, and Dan and I, the guy I hired to protect me, went to the Vatican. The Vatican was packed with tourists of course, and after a tour down in the tomb, we went Castel Sant' Angelo, where it was suprisingly chilling and lovely. We also walked to the Piazza Navona, before we stopped by the Pantheon. In the end did we end up at the memorial for the unknown soldier.
At this point I started to have so much pain in my leg, that I have to give up Fontana di Trevi and take a taxi home.
Today I've spent the day at the hostel, and at the laundry place, while I've tried to relax my foot (which doesn't seem to get better). But as my mother told me on the phone, I should concider go to the hospital.
I'm alright, I only look like a sack of potatos!

Firenze
Hey everybody!
This girl just arrived in Firenze (Florence) after ten hours on trains without air condition! My shoulders aren't as pink as yesterday, but still not a pretty sight! Firenze is really hot, and I'm glad I went here today, and not tomorrow, because tomorrow they have decided to strike!
The hostel is really nice, and has a very high standard! I haven't experienced much of Firenze yet,but I think I'm going to have a great time anyway!
Hope everybody still are good, and pleace, when you leave a comment, please do leave your name as well (unless you're my secret lover of course)!

Vive la France?
Hi there!
This girl is right now in Nice, after spending five days in Paris. Paris was great, but the French are really rude, and they speak bad English - just like me. I did most of the tourist stuff, but I have to confess, I haven't seen the Eifel Tower close up, I've only seen the top of it from a distance, behind some buildings. Woops. Next time, as I like to say! I also went on the free walking tour in Paris, which was nice, but not as nice as the 10 Euro walking tour in Montemartre. I love that part of the city! I have a lot of pictures, but they'll come later!
I also got two good friends in Paris; Mary and Chris from the States. But why the hell does everytbody I know be named either Tom (Thomas) or Chris (Christopher)? We had a lot of fun together! And I also have to say, I've stayd away from alcohol after the absinth !
Well, Nice is nice, and I havea light sunburn pink shoulders. Woho. Going to Florence tomorrow, and I plan to stay there for to nights, before I moveon to Rome and stay there for five nights.
Hope everybody is having a good time - just like me!

Legoland and Berlin
Hello out there! I'm currently in Cologne after a few wonderful days in Legoland and Berlin. I've taken a lot of photos, but unfortunatly can't I upload them here. They will come later!
Alright then, Legoland was great! We had one night on the boat, spent some money on gambling and had a bad nights sleep before we went to Legoland. In totalt did we spend two days in the park, and one day in a waterpark. Legoland is just like I remember it from when I was little; everything is made out of lego, and there's a lot of fun attractions. I managed to become soaking wet after a few hours, because I was the unlucky one who got the whole splash on the Super Splah. Woho!
The third day was a bit cloudy, so we spent it indoor at waterpark, the minigolf course and at the bowling alley. To put it this was, my nephew is no pussy, and he is better than me in both minigolf and bowling. That bastard!
On the fourth day, my sister, brotherinlaw and my nephew drove me of to Flensburg, where my journy began. I can already say after spending a few hours on a train, Norway needs highspeed train between the big cities!
After being lost at the Berlin Haupt bahnhof a while, I found David's hostel, which was a very cosy place. David was btw the gayest guy I've ever met, but very nice! I met lots of people there, e.g. some from Colombia, Spain, Venezuela, USA, Germany (du-uh), Sweden (they ate my chocolate!!) and Turkey.
We all had a lot of fun, drank a lot of beer and had too many shots, and we topped it all of yesterday with a pubcrawl and a absinth.
People, when other say you shouldn't drink absinth, don't fucking drink absinth! But do go on pubcrawls - that's funny!
Right now, as I said earlier, I'm in Cologne (Köln), and if you like shopping (both high and lowclass) this is the place for you - I've never seen so many shops in the same place before.
Tomorrow I head of to Paris. I'm really looking forward to that. I hope eveybody is fine, I will try to update me blog again soon :) Auf Wiedersehen!
