It's almost a year since my last update. Time flies. Things happen. Life goes on. Life stands still. And you meet people. For every place you live you make new best friends because you have to, it's a way of making life good. It always hurts to say goodbye to friends, but sometimes opportunities come up that make it possible to meet again.
A week ago I went to copenhagen to see astrid. I love that girl and if it hadn't been for her, my year in Kristiansand wouldn't have been as amazing as it was. She's volunteering in Copenhagen. And coincidentally, andrew is studying in the same city this year, so I could go and visit both. As always it was great to see astrid, but also seeing andrew was really nice. I would never have imagined to see him in copenhagen. Over three years have passed since our class graduated from UWC, which feels like a long time, and those years have been filled to the limit, at least for me, yet, three years feels like nothing when you see eachother again.
Kamilla is also studying in the city, and we were able to meet up for a delicious brunch. It's when you see people and talk with and about people that you realise that you miss them.
The visit was ended with an awesome halloween party. All the volunteers that are there through the same organisation astrid is with had arranged a party, and it was a lot of fun.
Another thing I realised that I miss is a more diverse environment. There are a lot of great people at my school, but in general it is quite a homogenous group of people. I miss the diversity you get from living with people from all parts of the world and from different layers of society.
