The End

So a final ending post to my blog!

Well my year in Norway was the most amazing year of my life, or rather most amazing life in a year!
So I returned home a few weeks ago to the extremely hot weather....... and I got really sunburnt on my first day....

Since then I've checked off nearly all my return to Australia objectives. I've had so many mangos and bananas, sorry Norway but Australia beats you on that one! I've eaten a meat pie, weetbix and vegemite on toast. And I had the most amazing steak! (another sorry to Norway, Australian steaks are just too good to resist!) Now I just need to go for a ski and head to the beach!

I started year 11 last week. Bit of a change going back and having to wear my uniform (definitely did not miss that while I was away!). But its going no too bad, but I miss all my Norwegians of course!

This weekend has been really great! We headed to Armidale for my debriefing. It was really good to see all the other exchange students and share our travel tales. We all had to make a speech about our year and chatted to our counsellors.

 
So anyway, last year was absolutely amazing! I saw mountains and fjords, palaces, castles and cathedrals, met the most amazing people and now have a second home. I came home with around 12,000 pictures and more maps than I can count, but more importantly with lifelong friends and fantastic memories. Now I woud like to thank everyone for making this last year possible! Thanks to Rotary, my host families and my parents! Without you all the year wouldn't have happened. So tusen takk for alt!

I definitely want to head back to Norway soon, but for now, its not goodbye, its see ya later mate!

Over and Out, Lexie xx
