You guys must be freezing your kiesters.....

So cool Scuba. Looks wonderful. If a trip to your part of the world pops up I will not trade it away like I do most international travel. I just hate the squirts. Not likely to get them where you live. China was 2 weeks of the squirts and 3 weeks of antibiotics when I got home.

 

the tap water here is pure spring water, i have a stomache of steel, like i can eat REALLY out of date food, but last time i went back to the uk, the tap water there gave me the shits sooo bad because the water is so clean here! i live quite close to this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trolltunga (the mountain across the fjord from me is the same mountain that trolltunga is on)

 

from the uk to here flights are dirt cheap, ryanair do a service from stanstead to haugasund, i payed £7 for a flight once!

 

To Norway? Guess that will be my first trip abroad soon then. I'm due a holiday.

 

I often hear "the U.S. is the best place to live. Bull sheit. I have been to many equal or better places traveling for business, but many much worse. Why don't I leave? Family, business, and I know how to make money here. If you know how things work, you can get virtually anything here. If we continue to be the "world's police" our government will not be able to stock toilet paper in the Capital. Will things change? Probably due to ISIS or ISIL. Killing those b@stards will bankrupt us. So I just wait, watch, and go to work like the rest of the world.
