    In this museum, you will discover the story of the Kon-Tiki expedition.

    It's very interesting and the boats inside are well preserved. But I think it's a little bit too expensive (40NOK) because it is a small museum.

    It's chilly outside and it's still snowing. What a …

    What an expensive city!

    4 photos

    The first think I noticed was the expensive prices I saw in the shops. First of all, we had 4 options to go to the city center. The taxi, the bus, the local train or the express train. We took the express train because it was the cheapest way (85 NOK for students). It takes only 20 minutes!

    For the accommodation, we slept in the cheapest …
