After a 2 hours flight to Johannesburg, a day shopping at Woodmead (outlet), a 11 hours flight to London, before a 2 hours flight to Oslo. I spent one night in the Norwegian capital and then I took a bus to Vangsnes (8 hours). There I got picked up by one of my cousins. So 4 days and 12 hours after I went to Lusaka Airport I arrived my beloved hometown Fresvik.

Last few days...

The last two blog posts were written in Norwegian for the purpose of making sure I was understood correctly, so there would be no misunderstandings. Firstly I wrote about my friend Anja who I’ve shared “my” Lusaka with, and the second was a look-back at the 10 months here in Zambia as a sport volunteer, and what’s been good and bad.

Snart slutt

Eit nytt innlegg på norsk, ettersom eg vil fortelje litt om korleis det har vore dei siste 10 månadane og uttrykke meg på ein så korrekt måte som mogeleg. Eg har vore idrettsfrivillig i Zambia gjennom Idrettens Fredskorps (NIF og Fredskorpset, med økonomisk støtte av NORAD) og reiser heimover fredag 6.juni. Det har vore eit år med mange opplevelsar og mykje lærdom.

A day in Mazabuka

After the schools opened two weeks ago I’ve been a lot busier, working as a sport volunteer for NIF and ZAAA, it’s been good, but it’s a shame I’m leaving so soon. Today, Saturday, 24 May 2014, I went to Mazabuka, which is “the sweetest city in Zambia” ‘cause of their sugarcane farming. I was sent there with the 06:30 bus to observe a Kids Athletics competition, you might ask me why I was sent there to observe and not organize, but that is because we don’t always trust it’s done properly...

Norwegian Constitution Day Celebration in Lusaka, Zambia, AFRICA!

Sunday May 18th

Yesterday, Saturday May 17^th, it was exactly 200 years since the Constitution was written in Eidsvold, Norway. Every year we celebrate in our own Norwegian way, which contains of a parade for adults and children, a band playing Norwegians songs (during the parade), singing the Norwegian anthem, eating Norwegian food, playing games, eating ice cream, adults having a glass of champagne for breakfast, and speeches. This year I’m spent the Norwegian National Day in Lusaka, but if you think it would be completely different, then you are sort of wrong!
