Uhhh uhhh uaaahhhh.
By now I've been trough three days of work. My first two was very slow, not that many guest. Today was busier so better.
I do like the cafe, the look is very posh but it's not like it at all. I'm just feeling that if it's not TOO busy now it won't be that later on eater which means I'm gonna go crazy there. Bored out my nipples probably..
Was at a interview yesterday and it went awesome ! Seen from my way at least but I think it's from both sides. It's a new sports bar opening and I loved it ! The owners was lovely and we had such a good time from the first second. Fingers crossed.
Had another interview today for a massive event company, only part time thou but if I get that it's just for fun. Not sure, it was crazy many that searched for it.. Time will tell.
Time for bed, work day tomorrow.
- On everything you do, the only thing that will stop you is the limit of time.
Five of five toasters.
Vancouver har been boiling hot. Hd almost thirty the other day. Poor me, don't have much summer clothes at all. Fucking chile was cold. Bugger !
Anyway, I love this city. It's a lot like Bergen, just two million inhabitants bigger.. It's parks, close to the sea, boats, BEACHES, mountains around, skiing, IKEA, hundreds of bars, starbucks and I love it ! I can actually see myself stay here. Don't know forever but this could definitely turn into home very very soon.
I've been around, trying to get myself a job and today I did.
Been here five days, after two i got myself a room and after five.. I had a trial at a nice Cafe downtown. On the edge of the water, harbor. Thinking that this is a lot like Bergen. So tomorrow I'll start. The girls working the was lovely so I'm sure I will have a great time. In this week I'm going for a interview for Urban Outfitters, my favorite clothes store. I sooooo want that job and the good thing is that I could probably mix them. The salary he is SHIT ! And that is probably a nice statement. It SUCKS. I think it's only half of what I got in Norway but I do love it.
And hopefully I get a job in a bar I search for swell, liked myself there a lot ! At least I have something at the time it's better than nothing. So, eleven month of and tomorrow it's time to work. That's gonna be strange, but funny !!
- Lucky Lucky me.
My northern light.
Sixteen new countries later I've got to Canada and Vacnouver. My new home.
My plan is To stay here for a year with my working visa, I managed to find a room in a crazy cool house not to far from downtown Vancouver. So today, my third day here I moved in.
Steve is the owner of the house and me and Katie is renting a room each. I've got a big bed, TV, closet. Everything you need. Now I'm just waiting for my cloth to be sent from sweden !
I love Vancouver so far, such a nice city. Close to the water, mountains and the area around is just beautiful. I'm gonna work hard to get myself a job as soon as possible. I need it, eleven month without work has made me a bit poor at the time,
But for real, I'm looking forward to work. Speciall when I don't know anyone here, I have to make friends too, I could always grab people on the street but I do think they will think of me like a TARD if I do. So no..
I actully happend to get to know Zoe today just on the street ! Someone to hang out with. Going to met Kousha tomorrow and met a girl named Johanna too. So, so far I'm doing a good job. But I'm gonna do even better !
got my Canadian phone number swell, 001 604 347 4706. Send me an sms, that will always make me happy.
- it's time to play. Fuck yeah.
With Love,
I left South America with incredible memories, this memories that you can't describe.
Everything I've seen and done. Can't believe it's for real. I'm still feeling that's it's been a dream, if so it's been the best dream ever.
I have so much love to all those countries. They are all amazing. A adventure that I never wanted to end. But I realize that there is no end, my adventure will keep rocking even outside south America.
And I know, I will go back there one day. It will take some time. I do like to see something else first. Its my biggest recommendation to go there. They are all the crazies, most beautiful, sandiest, saltiest, mountainiest, coolest, hardest, unsafest but of all THE BEST countries I've been too.
My time have made me different in one way. A good way I think, I'm even more social then before, I talk even more ( now you are all thinking, oh god no.. ), happier ( there is no end about that.. ).
Im interested in history and culture of different countries by now, didn't like it at all before. And even more curious..
All those wonderful persons I met. Both locals and other backpackers, they are all amazing.
Some you met for an hour, others a day and a few for weeks. But they were all cool. That's what I like about traveling, the people. They are the ones making the place in the end anyway.
- For this time, goodbye South America. I Love You.
Earthquake.
I was supposed to spend a long time in Santiago, never been in one place thatlong. ( oh, yeah exept from Cuzco.. ) Anyway, i was there to do some job searching and accomendation and stuff for Vancouver. Did I ?
Nope, nada. and now i realized how expensive the hostel´s is. So i signed up for couchsurfing so i might have a couch to sleep in my first days at least ! Lets hope.
Stayed at Aji Hostel, one of the best ones ive actuely been too. All the people and everything has been great.
Met up Felipe, we met in Asia in the begining, and i have to dedcate a few sentenses to him. Would like to say thank you, he took me in open arms, showed me around, i met loads of his friends and everyone was lovely. Its been awesome ! you are an amazing guy and keep doing what you are doing. You will become something big.
So, been around on house parties with just locals. Good fun. I´ve also been out a lot with peoples from the hostel. BUT ive done some good things too, a few museums, Free guided tour ( that was great ! ), cementery, fish market and of course drinking the local terremoto. Translated as earthquake. and i can see why, after two you´re going mad.
The drink is cheap white wine, very strong by the way, some pisco and pinaple ice cream. Its sounds strange, it was a bit too but me and Alan had a great time after a few in a local bar where everyone just stared at us as usal. haha. Good times..
The best was a one day skii trip with Alan. I loved it. Miss my skiing a lot, snow was good. ( not the offpist.. bugger.. ) we had a sunny day and my skiis were good. Loved every second. Even got a bit sunburned. haha.. Im soo white now days. Need the sun.. Didnt break any boans but got a painfull back days after. Did loads of jumping and apperently i dont have the muscels.. :D Valle Nevado is recomended !
Now im in Valpariso, its beautiful. Went to Lovely Viña Del Mar yesturday and walked on the beach. Was a while ago ive been on the beach. Realized i missed it ! And its weekend so we ust had to go for some partying.. haha. Heavy, i start to get tired. Crazy. But tomorrow its rest day and on monday i will leave this amazing continent that´s now deep in my heart ! Looking forward for some swedish gratinated potatoes tomorrow made by Joanna. Oh yeah !
- days are passing by. Memories stay forever.

Street-Fuck.
Cordoba wasnt impressive at all. I thought it was nothing to see at all. There was for sure a few nice buildings but thats it. Had two days to just stroll around on. Could manage that for sure.
Met some sweet peoples and on monday we were going out for a drink. Cordoba is still a big city. There was nothing going on, and we really walkt around. Stopt when we started to met girls on the side walks with just a jacket and nothing else. Realized that it wasnt the right day for a drink.
Got a local bar in the end and got both beer and pizza.. Better then nothing.
Got my bus late the night after, had no sleep at all because the guy behind me was the biggest snorer ever. MAN ! I almost punched him. Enoying.. Gaaah !
Anyway, on the change in Mendoza i met some cool people too chat with and the bus ride all the way to Santiago when a lot faster.
The border was pretty slow, my first border in south america where they actully checked my bag. Can you belive it, been here for ages and this was the first time.. The road trough the Andes passing Los Andes was beautiful. Snow peaks and skiiers and just amazing. WOW ! At the moment there's not loads that impress me at the time. Seen so much now..
Pretty tried getting in to Santiago but makes my way to the hostel and was supposed to have a slow night but of course it turned out to last until four in a night club.
- Gypian - Hold you.

Impressive.
Forgot to tell you about great shopping and the impressive cemetery, that's more like a small town in BA. Thats all I'm gonna tell you I just don't have the effort to write now.
I just left iguasu and now spending twenty hours on a bus to Cordoba. Looking out my window and see a landscape covered in snow. Pretty !
Every time I see snow I get even more happy than before ! iiii.
The igusu falls was amazing. I saw the brazil side first, it's less impressing and then the Argentinian side. To see more than two hundred and fifty waterfalls in a rainforest is amazing. It's so power full and you definitely gets to have a shower, whether you want it or not.
The first thing we saw getting in to the park was a toucan, so finally I got my picture of one. They are really shy so it's hard to get them. That made my day for sure.. I was the happiest !
I've never seen anything like this and knowing that's it's natural it's just amazing. Wow !
Let's see what cordoba has to offer, I just have two days and then I'm gonna spend my last twelve days in chile before my flight leaves this amazing continent for Canada and Vancouver. Believe it or not but right now I'm looking forward to.
Knowing that I will comeback one day..
- you can never get to much of life.
