No climbing so far

The last week I've been out on an oilrig named Njord located on Haltenbanken outside the coast of Norway. It's a floater. Wich I did not realize the first day out here. You could say I got pretty relieved when I realized that it actually was the ground beneath my feet that was moving, not me starting on a serious case of sickness. Feeling dizzy and all that.


This is the first real trip I've had alone. (that last stunt-trip only counts in the "platforms-I've-set-my-feet-on"-list.) So far I've managed to overcome any obstacles I've met and I'm now moving on in a really professionally-ish way out here. The sun is shining, the snow is melting, I've got an itchy balaclava, my shoes are taking in water, the food is excellent and a man sleeps on my room when I'm out working during the day. In other words: I can't complain.


Estimated time for leaving this pile of metal is the coming tuesday.
