Travel blog :D

Hey, i'm going to write about my trip to the two wnglish speaking countries, Australia and India
i will write a little bit about the countries, the climate, what i have done and experienced there, so you guys could have a look into my wonderful trip, just by reading my diary. The trip took me like one and a half week, and i spent the first week in Australia, and ended the trip by spending the 4 last days in India.
Australia.

Hey, i started my trip by travelling with an airplane from Norway, to Australia. I landed in Perth, at Perth airport. I choosed to go to Perth, bacause it is a wonderfull city, and i am going to visit my cousine who moved there for about 1 motnh ago.
Perth is the the capital and the biggest city in the state, west-Australia.



Perth has a mediterranean climate, and therefor the wether is almost warm and sunny all the time. The water is shiny and blue, even when it is winter, because of the mediterranean climate. The nature is quite different from Norway, it is much dryer there, because off all the sunny days. Thy have desserts, who is something uot of the normal from Norway, very interesting actually.







Everything here in Australia is big, and very cool, and something completly different from Norway. During my trip i am staying at my cousin who lives 100 meters from the very long and white sandy beach, so that fitts me perfect. My cousine ( Marte) have taken me to the beach, it is wonderfull there, and today we also going to the beach to see if i can learn how to surf. Surfing is a big sport down here in Australia. I got to experience that is it not easy to surf, it takes mutch training to be really good. After a long workout of surfing, Marte took me in to Perth city. we travelled with a car, and during the trip she told me a little bit facts and interesting things to know abouth Perth.
The first europeen who experienced Perth was a guy from Netherland called Charles Howe Fremantale. He was a sailer, and started taking over Perth.


I was also told that Perth is the most isolated town in the world, because the nearest big city is 2000km away. Even if it is isolated, it still lives many people there, with a population of 1554779 people. The areal of Perth is 5 386 km2.
Marte told me that one very famous man was born in Perth, Heath Ledger. I really like Heath Ledger, so that made the trip even more exiting. Unfortunaly the good actor Heath Ledger died about one and a half year ago.



During my stay in Perth i have experienced many things, i have been to Perth zoo, the beautiful beaches: Cotteslo, Scarborough, Trigg, Mullaloo and City beach. Kings park, a park who is 4 km2 big, where i got to see very mutch of the city. And i have been to the famous river: Swan river who is called after all the black swan who used to swim there. This was a short summary of what i have done and experienced at my one week stay in Perth.







I have learned very mutch on ths trip, georgaphy, history and i have experienced more than i ever would have imagined.
Hey everyone. Today i'm in my second day of the visit in India. I have seen incredelbe things here, and the culture is really something out of the normal, compared to Norway. The country has extremly many people, and the streets is full of people everywhere. The country is the 7'th largest in the world, and the 2'nd most populated. With a population on 1.12 billion people it is not weard that the streets get so crouwdy. The biggest part of the people consists of hindus, I think it is around 81% .

Today i have been to see the longest river in India, Ganges. Ganges is a 2506 km long river. The river is holy for the indian people, and they mean that the river is suposed to clean your soul, and release you from sin. I think it is a bit weard, after seeing how dirty the river is, it have a brown coluor, and that is signs of the river being dirty. But still the hindu people means that it is good for them.
I also went to the mountain range Himalaya who is located in a bit of India to take a look at the Mount Everest, that is the tallest mountain in the world, and K2 who is the worlds most dangerous mountain.

I am staying in the capital of India who is New Delhi, it is very beautiful here, and i really like the special culture. Today i went out to eat, and i got served indian tandori chicken, very good i think. The food down here is specially good, and the indian people have god experience with food, so everything is very tasty.
I have experienced a lot down here, but i also starting to miss home a bit, so i will concider my trip ending here. But as a final touch of getting to know India i went to see the Taj Mahal. The Ttaj mahal is a big mausolee, and it has a garden about 300 * 300 meter . The building is concidered to be a muslim shrine. It is a very big and beatiful building, and the arcitecture is very special. The taj Mahal is regarded to be on of the seven wonders of the world. That is not so weard after seeing it, with the beauty and almost everything made of white marble.


During my trip i have experienced and learned a lot, and it have been really fun too. The Indian culture and the nice climate in Australia have been a perfect experience for me . All together this have been an amazing trip, and i would love to experience something like this again, but maybe to get to know another country and a new culture.

But i will concider myt rip as finish here, and i will meet you back home in Norway, see you :D

Here are some some pictures from my trip. :-D

Bood diamond

Blood diamond

I thought the movie was very good. The fact that it was based on a true story, or based on what actually can happend makes it very real, and gives even more impression of how it is in real life. I think everyone who sees the movie start thinking when it is finish. We start thinking how people in Africa can live, and what actually happens. That one diamod, costs one man or womes hand is showed very well in the movie. The move gave a very big impression because of the strong scenes, an how the movie is made. You can see how they live and what they have to do for living.

I really liked the movie because it gave impression, and it made me think. i liked the movie because it was action, but not in a big war kind of way. The actors played their parts very well, and they fit perfect to the caracters, and that makes the movie even better. After seeing it i mean the movie is very good, and i will recomend it for everyone :D
