Thank you for all your nice birthday greetings. So far being 38 is okay! Having my first birthday in Norway made me realise I have made some lovely,caring friends here. When we first moved to Norway I remember crying to Henrik telling him that one of the hardest things was not knowing anyone and having nobody care about me (apart from him of course, but sometimes that's not enough!) Yesterday I felt cared for and it made me realise I have come a long way in 8 months.Those 8 hard months, full of frustration,starting my life from scratch,homesickness and wondering why the hell I came up with this foolish idea to move to this odd country have finally turned around and being here feels pretty good!
