Just came out of a quite weekend which i really think i needed because just being in a new place really does exhast you up as a person. I went up to mountains from the 08 September to the 10 September which proved to rather interesting. We stayed in a pretty upmarket cabin that had all the neccessaties one would need. This means that i still have not slept in a tent, not that i am looking forward to that. I just think i will freeze to death because Norway is starting to get really cold now its scary. I also went mountain climbing for the first time which was really an experience. I felt so good when i got to the top of the of the mountain, because i felt like i had accomplished something that words cannot explain.
It was really cold at the top of the mountain and could not even keep my eyes opened. My body was warm though from all the clothing i was wearing, which were all borrowed from different individuals from my office. I also got a crash course on clothing that can keep you warm, ''Wool is Gold''. I need to wear woll underneath my clothing and then i can layer that with a fleece or any other clothing but i have to wear a wind proof jacket at the end. I also need to wear wollen gloves, beanie (hat) and scarf if possible. With this advise i will never go wrong i hope. Please can everyone feel free to give me any clothing advise because i really need that.
I have been working on the re-marketing of the HIV/AIDS awareness badge and this has become very close to my heart. I will be going to Haugaland krets this weekend and i am really looking forward to that as i will get to meet other people that make up the scouts. I will also be doing a presentation on the HIV/AIDS Badge with some of the participants.

Wow, Nelly - this was really fun to read :) I'm so happy you have a blog too! You are soon becoming a "real Norwegian" now that you know how to dress in cold weather. And it's true what tehy are telling you, because there is no better thing than wool to keep you warm. Sounds like you are having a great time :) I'm glad!
