So\u2026.. I\u2019ve been in Bergen nearly a week now and I think it\u2019s time I actually start updating all of you with what I\u2019ve been doing here since then. I left Gatwick airport at 11 am and reached Bergen at around 2 pm after catching the Flybussen (the airport bus) which drops you off at the city centre.<\/p>\n

Now at this point everything had went smoothly\"download, I made the mistake of thinking that I had succeeded in travelling to a foreign country, but what I had forgot was that I had no idea where to store my bags nor where the student centre was, also the fact that all the street names are in Norwegian and I being the ignoramus that I am can\u2019t pronounce anything properly, (I think you can picture the blank stares I got from Norwegians I had asked for directions). Luckily I had managed to get a better map so I could find the student centre- which was open until 8pm \u2013\u00a0 so after getting lost 10 times, walking up hills which I can only describe as Cardiac hill\u2019s long lost cousins (the hill of death in Aberystwyth) and knocking on the wrong building, I finally found the student centre BUT I was 202nd<\/sup> in line to get my key for the Fantoft student accommodation. Luckily enough instead of standing there like a mum child I was welcomed into a group of German, French and Spanish students who were also waiting and I caught the Bybanen (light rail) to Fantoft with them)<\/p>\n

At this point you would think that I had actually sorted out all of my problems\u2026 but I forgot to mention that I had taken my sister to travel with me for the week. Where was she I hear you ask? Well I had left her at the bus station with all my luggage for 3 hours, she was feeding pigeons so to be honest I thought that would keep her content for a while, but to the contrary she started making plans on finding places where to sleep rough for the night if I didn\u2019t return\u2026. So you can imagine that she is never going to let me live that down.<\/p>\n

So after finally getting here I decided to unpack and we tried to go to Ikea on the free bus, however we missed that and ended up walking around the town centre for a few hours before coming back to Fantoft.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That was basically my first day here! I\u2019m just going to put some do\u2019s and don\u2019t for travelling<\/p>\n
