i thought england would be cold, brought many jackets.
i m melting.

 

[arildno]

Here in Finland the temperature is high for the season, the sun is shining and there are very little signs of autumn. In addition, I only have two boxes left to unpack in my new flat. This is already starting to look like a home!

Finland is a great country with many fine traditions.
Saunas, for example..

 

[hypatia]

Hold tight to them, it will get colder, you have my word on it.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

gurkhawarhorse, I hope your likeing your new location, and have settled in. Your home country is just magical, I hope to go back on day.

thanks. actually i came here for 4 years of studies with my brother. i m liking this place. really friendly people. they all call me naz like my previous friends. but the society is a bit weird. the girls in my school wear low chested don't know what u call that, and short skirts and come to hug me . thought it would be a racist society but it is really cool. my english is really bad. need to say 'pardon' every time

Oh, yes! Rooms heated up to nearly 100 degrees celsius must be quite exotic, quite different from southern european high-huminidy and low-temperature Saunas/Baths. Combined with a cold lake they can be a bit straining for the heart though, better be safe than sorry there.

Norway, on the other hand, has talkative and friendly people, and high mountains. That's definitively different from Finland! Norway is an astonighingly beautiful country, both visually and in spirit.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

still confused about sun rising in the mid-night!

 

[Lisa!]

You mean I shouldn't post here Sir?

A bit of physical exertion producing a lot of sweat can, indeed, be hazardous to the old.
It should be reserved for the young.

Well, the mountains are doing fine without my attendance, but you are right, Norway is the most beautiful country in the world (with the deep, melancholy Finnish forests coming in on a shared 2.place..)

 

[arildno]

It doesn't rise at midnight; it never goes down. That is, you have normal daylight all through the 24 hours.

 

[wolram]

Feel free Lisa, i am sure you have some good stuff to say.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

so that explaines it.
cool. in england too in sun rises at 3 in morning and sets in 9 at night.

Where I live in Norway during high summer, the sun rises around 3 I think, and sets at 11 at night, This means we have a sort of night-time (no midnight sun!), but the color of the sky has a soft blue tone, rather than going black.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

in my home u don't see sun for long time in northen valleys. mountains block it really long.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

yay i am going tomorrow with my brother to see what sea looks like.
wait let me post this everywhere.

 

[Joel]

I definitively agree, the most beautiful of the one's I've visited, that is. Not just to advertice my own thread, but since it came up, here are pictures of mountains and fjords in Norway.

So, who is the other one sharing the second place?

There are a few deep valleys in southern Norway that experience the same at winter's time; in the Northern Norway, where you have midnight sun during the summer time, you have during autumn and winter, the "time of darkness", lasting several months, when the sun doesn't rise at all.
That's one of the major reasons why I never want to live in Northern Norway..

Oh, there are many countries sharing 2.place, probably a few I don't know about yet..

Oh, definitively. Judging by the pictures, the mountains there is something I really want to see for myself someday.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

well, don't even think about going to nepal now.
well do go to nepal if u wish to be abducted by those dic*heads

You're talking about the Maoists, right?
Are they the ones that one of the royal family conspired with and instituted a massacre of the rest of the Nepalese royalty a few years ago?

 

[Joel]

Well, maybe not now, but one day. I hope the casefire lasts.

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

no dunno, who was that another dic*head.

well, 2059 nepalese year, 9:00 at night, kathmandu, royal family sits together.
6 people with the same face of our prince comes ,... massacare. queen's body had 50 bullets in body!.
prince claimed to have commited suicide by an AK-47. dead prince becomes king for 3 days.
new king.

 

[arildno]

I'm sad your home country is in such turmoil.
From what I knew of Nepal (and I know very little), it seemed a very peaceful country until the royal massacre.
After that, it seems to have gotten into a chaos that no one outside bothers with.
Are there, for example, UN personnell present in Nepal trying to keep some order and afford security to the average person there?

 

[gurkhawarhorse]

dunno.

well there were maoists 8 years before the massacare but everything was in control

I see you have all ready found some of the more colorful english words, it is
a shame we have so many.
