It's time for the holiday season. It's time for holiday photos! Let me help you capture some of the more unconventional memories this year!
I don't know about you, but November feels a bit like trying to avoid quicksand. I say quicksand because since childhood I've had a real and completetly unfounded fear of falling into quicksand. Thanks, 80s cinema. To counter this feeling I hand myself an assignment, and that is what I am sharing with you this week.
One of my students sent me an article from the Guardian called "Dreading the winter lockdown? Think like a Norwegian." I'm Norwegian, and like to think I think like one. I'm also on my second decade of being an expat and not quite sure how I think anymore, so I read the article only to conclude that yes, I still think like a Norwegian.
I'm homesick, it is very unnerving. I've lived half my life away from my homeland, speak my adopted language fluently and am generally pretty ok with how life turned out geographically.
