Hobbit Abroad: April 2010
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Friday, April 30, 2010. Something I thought of doing a while ago! If you visit Oslo, you must. Have a kebab. And not just any kebab, but a kebab from the Majorstuen Kebab Shop. Hint hint: you get off the T-bane at Majorstuen to get there. ;D. Visit Holmenkollen and admire the view of the fjord! It's beautiful in every season. Walk the length of Akerselva- though I'd suggest doing that when the weather is relatively warm, otherwise you won't see much.

Hobbit Abroad: January 2010
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Sunday, January 31, 2010. God natt, Oslo. But before I contemplate my nightly routine, a quick update about yesterday evening:. Tim and Richard did not, in fact, prepare Dutch pancakes, because apparently one of Richard's roommates cooked pancakes earlier that day! We ended the evening not seeing Avatar. Yes, this is the third time I've seen Sherlock Holmes. Now if only I could understand my Cameroonian hallmates. Saturday, January 30, 2010. Old bookshop...

Hobbit Abroad: December 2009
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Wednesday, December 23, 2009. 14 days and counting! Another quick update from Huntsville:. All the red tape paperwork has either been completed or begun, so at this point, I believe I am all set for departure. I have paid my deposit for my room in Oslo, I have started the visa application process (which does not, in fact, have to be completed. Hopefully, it'll feel a little bit like home to me, too. Thursday, December 10, 2009. Norwegian smoked salmon...

Hobbit Abroad: Hei fra England.
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010/07/hei-fra-england.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Monday, July 5, 2010. It feels unreal, to me, that I'm not going back to my little corner of Oslo in Kringsjå, but I'm adjusting. I enjoy being back in England. To Geraldine. Honestly, the list goes on and on. Walking out of that church was so difficult for me, but I know I'll be back. Was when I had my first proper visit out of the US and back to England, gazing in awe out the window. Seemed fitting somehow. It's hard not to. July 5, 2010 at 7:16 PM.

Hobbit Abroad: May 2010
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Thursday, May 27, 2010. A message from the void. Two exams down, one left to go! But, once exams are over as of June 10th (*sobs*) I will be free! Ahh, to be a russ kid in good ol' Norge. American high school seniors, we totally missed out. Saturday, May 22, 2010. If the tone of my writing seems a little off today, that's because my mood is rather off, too. I think the closer it gets to time for my departure, the more I am taking strides to distance ...

Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Saturday, June 26, 2010. A real post is forthcoming. But for now. Tim goes back to Holland in eight hours. Mike goes back to Minnesota in ten hours. To briefly borrow Jennifer's words: This. is hard. June 27, 2010 at 2:28 AM. June 28, 2010 at 6:53 AM. Oh yes, I know that it will get better over time, and that it isnt goodbye for good. The pain really does emphasize just how much of a family we became for each other while living here in Oslo, and I do...

Hobbit Abroad: Winding down.
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010/06/winding-down.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Wednesday, June 23, 2010. Just for a little while, I want to live a life without deadlines and less certainty. I think it will be good for me. June 23, 2010 at 3:37 AM. The first step to an organized kitchen is to formulate a plan and assemble the proper items. One of the most challenging aspects of kitchen efficiency is organizing spices. Many recipes require an assortment of spices. Good thing the Spice rack is invented. June 26, 2010 at 8:15 PM. A rea...

Hobbit Abroad: Hello, 100th blog entry!
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010/07/hello-100th-blog-entry.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Saturday, July 10, 2010. Hello, 100th blog entry! Now that that is over with, I'll quickly hit what I've been up to this week with bullet points:. Aunt Jackie and I had a wander around Wisley, which is part of the National Trust here in England. Very beautiful gardens, and a lovely lunch on the patio; cool breeze, too. Drove down to Brighton with Uncle Pete on Wednesday, had a wander through the Lanes, enjoyed my first Cornish pasty since 2008 (! La Peli...

Hobbit Abroad: A genuine, sincere farewell.
http://hobbitabroad.blogspot.com/2010/07/genuine-sincere-farewell.html
Adventures of a 5'1" globetrotter from the states. Friday, July 2, 2010. A genuine, sincere farewell. Ve been keeping busy. Actually, I think the more accurate phrasing of that statement is, I have been swamped. I was- where I still am, until Sunday- and more about who I became. What this country did for me, inside and out, through my clumsy (but improving! But not anymore. Never again. This country has set me free. July 2, 2010 at 6:50 AM.
