Here we are, Trondheim!

First time writing in English here, so i hope most of you can understand what i am writing hehe. It`s been a very nice time here in Trondheim, we arrived on Friday at night very tired `cause the trip took around 13 hours from Mandal-Trondheim. We had to take 1 bus and 2 trains, "train connection" in Oslo.
I have been quite busy up here, people are inviting us all the time to do something and i think this is awesome. I couldn`t even unpack due to our tight schedule so far, imagine in 2 months.. i will have to prioritize what to do and what not to do. But i think i can find time, i don`t really have to sleep everyday, do i? Neiiii. (means no in Norwegian) heheh. The house i am living is on the right, check it out.

Trondheim is very nice city, everything is well-organized and i wish it was the same in Brazil. My contact person, called Lars Olav has been helpful to us, providing us all we need and i think will be great to work with him and the other students. He took me for a guide tour in Trondheim on sunday and he taught me how to go to downtown and come back home, how to take a bus and showed me the Nidaros Cathedral as well, which is amazing... No words in English to say, maybe i could say in Portuguese IRADOOOOOOOO.

               This Sunday i went to Church (which is NOT this one on the pic) with a friend of ours called Lilian, and it`s funny because they sing almost the same musics that we do in my church, very weird to sing it in Norwegian though i knew what i was singing. After church we went to a water park here, isn`t is cool? was maybe 8 degrees outside and we were swimming hehe, the place is like a cupula, closed place, i don`t know how to explain in English, anyways.. it`s indoors. I jumped from 10 meters trampolim uhuuuu, pure adrenaline. Very very very high. Then we left the water park and i was wearing shorts getting totally wet, was raining/ windy, COLD, but i survived. Then we ate pizza made by ourselves (i did not help hehe) but i washed the dishes. It was tasteful, delicious.

Today (monday) was "snowing" a bit, we had our office fellowship and we talked about some activities that me and Erica can be part of, also we bought our bus monthly pass. The worst part was after that, we had to cook to myself, yesss alone, no help allowed, no one was at home so of course no one could help me anyway hehehe. I cooked ground beef with rice from 3 days ago w/ chips and "Batata palha". Hum, i forgot to say that is 3 degrees outside since the morning, too cold.

It`s impossible to say everything here on the blog, so what i am gonna do is to update with short reports more often, not saying everything but going deep on something interesting here with pictures and comments. Hope you liked it.
