The day of our travel I was really excited when I woke up. I was not excited about going to Norway. I was excited because we would watch Galatasaray’s match. After some shopping we watched the match and we went to the Ataturk Airport. We went to the airport so early and we waited for a while for opening the doors. When the doors opened we did some shopping and we got into the plane. After for a long journey we were in Norway. I have to confess that I have never seen a country more beautiful than Norway.
First day, after we arrived at Sveio the teacher in Norway came and took us then we went to house where we will stay. At first, I was worried about communication but when I saw the atmosphere at home I was not worried about that problem. The people at home were so friendly and lovely. After we had our dinner my friend‘s father took us to school for volleyball training. The teachers and the students said that school was small but there were almost 500 students. After training we went home and after some chatting everybody went to bed.
Second day, in the morning I couldn’t see my teacher, Bekir, but I had no problem about communication. On the second day we went to school with a school bus. The students from other countries had come to the school. Everybody presented their slide shows which they had prepared before. After presentation everybody shared their traditional foods. We had a chance to eat different foods from different countries. There was a lovely atmosphere and everybody was trying to know about each other.
Third day, I was thinking that we would be at school but after we went to school the teacher in Norway took us and said we would go to the lighthouse and then we would meet the mayor and we would have lunch together. After a long walk we were at the lighthouse everybody was filled with admiration about the view and we took lots of photos. After having lunch with the mayor we went to the harbor for a boat tour. After the boat tour we went to an island and we had a chance to see the natural beauties. In the evening we watched a movie in one of the student’s home and had dinner there. In my opinion third day was the most enjoyable one.
Fourth day, everybody knew each other very well and we had no communication problem. When we went to school my teacher Bekir told me that we would go to Bergen. After for a long journey we arrived at Bergen. We saw beautiful view from rope railway then teachers had a meeting and we went walking in the city centre and did some shopping. While we were eating, we met 3 Turkish people. It was so exciting and interesting. Turkish people are everywhere.
Fifth day was the last day before we left Norway. The Norwegian students and we were sad. In the morning the teacher from Norway took us and we went to lake side for canoeing. It was a different experience for me. Then we went to school and then we went to Haugesund for a walk. This city was also a harbor city like Bergen. We ate there then we came back to school .In the evening the Norwegian students showed us their traditional dances. There was a big party at the school. It was really late when we went home. After a chat with people from home I packed my bag and went to bed.
Sixth day, everybody woke up really early in the morning. After we had breakfast, my friend’s father and mother took me to the bus station. Yes, it was a time we went. After leaving there I thought that in such a cold country there were lots of hot-blooded people. After saying goodbye to everybody we went to Stavanger for the flight. After doing some shopping in Amsterdam and İstanbul we returned to Çankırı.
