Autumn is here!

Long time no see! Ey?

Haven't been writing here for a while, because I haven't really had any good post ideas as I haven't been traveling since Norway trip in August. 

I got a new job in Manchester, freakin finally! have been running in different job interviews and going around town hoping some door will open for me some day soon. 
Well finally it happened and I got a job just 20min by tram from city centre, which is great for me. Short distance to gym after work or shops on the way back home. Oh and I have a new roomie! My boyfriend and I decided that he could move in to my flat as he is always here anyway and doesn't really spend time at his place anymore. (Which is next block in this same building). Everything has been same, he just has basically his stuff here and that's it. 

When I got to the Friday, of course I had to get sick and my boyfriend too, been in the bed and probably will... whole weekend. Blaah! 

I managed to get my hair cut and get some take away- to home. I took my clothes and my boyfriend's clothes to Charity for Children- organization Barnados. I don't actually do much charity but as they don't seem to have any GOOD fleamarkets in UK, I decided to give all to charity what I didn't wear anymore. Some of them I will sell in Facebook "Tampere group" which is great, last trip what I made to my hometown, I managed to get 60€ from my clothes. 

Too bad they don't have that in here...

Have a good weekend everyone! :)

Norway

Norway - Oslo & Rjukan

We had long weekend so we decided to go to Norway as all flights were perfect. It was bank holiday in UK on Monday so we had shorter week than other ones. We flew with Ryanair ( of course ) and paid for flights like £55 each, which is not bad! Our main mission was to do bungee jump in Rjukan. Rjukan is a small town 2 hours away from Oslo. We arrived on Friday evening and woke up early in the morning on Saturday and went to have a look at the town. We rented a car for Rjukan and in some reason it was cheaper to take 3 days rental than 2 days. We were both driving around Oslo and on Sunday we left early after the delicious breakfast in  our hotel Astor Thon, just off from main street Karl Johan Gaten. 

Trip to Rjukan wasn't so easy, we were depending on our rented TomTom (SatNav) and there was only one road to go to Rjukan, of course... there was this road barrier which didn't go up. There was few other people wondering what is happening and luckily one norwegian guy realized other but longer way, so we started to follow his car and found the way. 

We made it in time to Bungee and I was the first one jumping and my boyfriend was taking video. Then we did vice versa. Can't really describe how awesome it was, but I recommend this to everyone who likes adrenaline or is adrenaline addict! 

Here you can see my jump:
