General Orientation over

General orientation over
Now the general orientation at University of Zambia (UNZA) is over, it has been 10 fun days! We have bonded so much, and I’m so happy to have met so many great people. 20 Africans who will live 10 months in either Norway or another country in Africa, and 11 Norwegians who will work/live in Zambia or Zimbabwe. The last few days we have had a lot of discussions, everything from what is the best soda of Fanta and Coke, to gay marriage. It’s been fun, frustrating and eye opening at the same time. Yesterday it was our last night all together, since those who are going to Norway and Zimbabwe left this morning. So we went out and danced. It was great fun and I am going to miss the times we gather around in a ring and one and one comes in to show off some dance moves.


Now we will have 2 days of Specific Orientation (SO) here at UNZA before my new family will pick me up. 

I’m posting a youtube video from Saturday on the field and some pictures from last night. 

Training session in the morning. We start either at 6AM or 6:30AM, me leading the circuit training.
