A Few Days In. A Few Falls On The Ice Builds Character.

Sogn Student Village Entrance

First impressions:

1. It's cold.

2. Public Transit is awesome.

3. Oslo looks like what I'd imagine the North Pole to look like - covered in snow, quaint, peaceful, and festive.

4. My living situation is going really well - nice room, good people. (A video of the room to come soon.)

5. I don't know how I'm going to eat. And drink. Crazy expensive.

6. It's very cold.

Beyond first impressions, I've had a pretty awesome time so far. Yesterday, I went with two of my roommates, Lotte (The Netherlands) and Chris (Canada), to the immigrant section of the city to check out a second hand market outside, and then went to Oslo Central Station to hop on the free IKEA shuttle and then to walk around a bit. Other than covered in ice, the city is great, and looks to offer a lot.
