Be a Student

Hei hei, I’m still alive and healthy. I took me really a while to find the motivation and time to continue my blog.

resaon of my motivation & time ^^

Nevertheless, I want to tell you about my live and experience in Trondheim and have good place to remember my time later. Nothing really special happened at the beginning of the week. I had lectures and did my laundry. After this week, I decided to drop out of a class and finish this semester with three courses each 7.5 credits. I try to get my daily life started with cooking, exercising, friends and uni.

Maxi and I went on Tuesday to an American Football training from the Uni. It was really fun, sadly it did not really fit into my daily routine so I stop it. Because it was still sometimes nice weather we played a few time beach volleyball direct at our student village. Mainly I went for runs and to the gym.  

The highlight of the week was a big cabin Trip on the weekend. We booked 12 places in a cabin for 20 people with a sauna. The preparation for this trip where more challenging, because of the size of the group. But as usual we manage to get it done.

It turned Friday noon everything packed just get the cars and go. I was in the early group with 6 others. The driving part was for me quite comfortable, but the people in the back weren’t that happy.

We stopped at a waterfall. It should be “just 500 meters”, Jordi our Dutchman said. But after walking for minutes and minutes, climbing and hiking in the woods, we could really come close to the actual big waterfall we wanted to see. 

not the real one...

closest we could go

Quite desperate we had to turn back and couldn’t see the amazing waterfall, thanks Jordi :P
After we arrived at the nearest parking spot to the cabin, it was still 1 ½ hour to hike until we should reach the cabin. Luckily it just took us a bit more than an hour.

The cabin was big we had plenty of space for the first night, on the second another group joined us.

Because we seven where the early starters we set up the cabin and prepared dinner, what a surprise we had spaghetti with tomato sauce. Grandma Frederico disagreed, for him “this is no pasta”. 

We ended the day by sitting together around the fireplace and some of us went into the sauna. To cool down we jumped into the freezing river close buy…

Second day we went on hike to a summit, which was around 1200 meters above sea-level. I started with the early group around 9:30.

It was an amazing hike up there. Guess who we met on the top? The other part of our group :D

So we could enjoy the way back together.

After hiking around 25km we managed to find our cabin and had a rest. Guess what was our dinner? … Yeah Pasta again ;)

During our hike, the other group arrived who we surprisingly knew. We spend the evening together and squeezed us together to fit in the cabin.

Last day of our trip was mainly cleaning the cabin and the sauna. Return to the cars, which was even faster, and drive home to Moholt. Our seven-people car group had time, so we stopped at a lake to have lunch and enjoyed the marvelous weather.

Afterwards we finished the amazing trip. Two weeks of lectures and two trips, the semester started really good.

Cheers
Steffen

PS: I promise it is not going to take that long until the next post. I’m just at the beginning of September so far …
