Everything's coming up Norway

One more day...

Tomorrow is my last day of work in Stavanger. I have really been looking forward to getting back to Vancouver, but the closer my departure gets, the more I feel like I don't want to leave. I know the change is what I need, I haven't quite been myself lately, but it doesn't change the fact that I am going to miss my friends and co-workers.

Since I've been here I've met some fantastically interesting people. All of them are well-educated, motivated, and extremely worldly. They speak so many languages that I'm embarassed to reveal that I can only speak english... and some passable french. Sure, we may not always see eye-to-eye on the amount of work that should be done during a standard work week, but there's a lot to be said for someone that can work hard, yet also prioritize their private life.

Living in Norway has been a fantastic experience, primarily due to the great people I have met and with whom I have become great friends. Even though I am looking forward to getting back to Canada, I know that once I leave, I will really miss it here.

I sure won't miss the beer prices though.
