goodbye for now, but not for good


I think I've been avoiding writing.  The most obvious reason is I was all consumed with the culmination of my master studies by wrapping up my thesis which was completed and submitted June 20th- wahooo!  I'm a master! 

But, I think I was also avoiding this entry because it means this whole wonderful experience of studies and life in Norway is coming to an end.... for now.  I don't know what the future holds and I know I will return.  Soon.  Norway has a piece of my heart. 

There's so much I'd like to share about my time here but I feel I'll never express it properly.  Perhaps I will start trying as I process.  But, for right now I'm enjoying my last day in Bergen.  The sun was shining for my last goodbye and I had a chance to see a few friends for coffee as well as get a mountain run in today.  There's nothing like Bergen on a sunny day.  It's truly one of the prettiest cities- a quaint European town with green mountains that run to the sea. 

I also had the chance to do a little recording with a friend from Cafe Opera jam session.  I hope you enjoy our work from a few hours this evening.  Thanks David!



And, with that I say 'skal' with my last Hansa beer.

Bergen and the wonderful people I've met during my time here- you have a piece of my heart.

San Diego- I'm coming home and there's no place sweeter.
