The Rotary International Youth Camp in Norway
The moment I stood on the mountain of Bitihorn, in Norway, with the spectacular view of the mountains in front of me I was utterly convinced that there was no more beautiful country anywhere on earth.Travelling around these different areas with young people from 12 different countries including Germany, Turkey and Taiwan was almost a surreal experience as it was something I never thought I would do at this age. I have made amazing friends, true friends which I hope to visit soon and definitely keep contact through social media
The
programme included everything from visiting the Holmenkollen ski jump arena to
trekking across the Scandinavian mountains in Valdres. For me the most moving
experience was the visit to the government building to see the exhibition from
the terrorist attack which took place in 2011.
The host families were very warm and welcoming and gave me an opportunity to taste some of the traditional Norwegian dishes. Although, I was very sceptical trying the caviar in a tube as it looked very much like there was toothpaste on the table.
We also had a party where us, the participants, were able to
present their own dishes and entertainment. Personally, I teamed up with the Dutch
participant and made 2 delicious cakes. As entertainment we performed some
dances from our home countries, in particular the Turkish traditional dancing since
one of the participant had brought some belly dance hip scarves for everyone.
We also held an awards ceremony where I was awarded the title 'best climber'.
My stay at Nessonden’s Steiline Islands was a breath taking experience
travelling by a speedboat 50 cm above the water surface moving at a
speed of 100kmph! On the Islands we performed a variety of water activities
ranging from water skiing to swimming whilst being surrounded by jellyfish.
In Valdres we stayed in cosy wooden cabins surrounded by
marvellous scenery. We did some ''light mountain walking'' which wasn't so
light after all! But the views were rewarding at the end and took some great
photos with our national flags. We also had the opportunity to learn some
Norwegian folk dances which looks much easier than it actually is!
Honestly,
I can say the 10 days were one of the most wonderful and memorable moments of
my life. I would like to thank The Newport Uskmouth Rotary club for making this
unforgettable journey possible. I would surely recommend this to anyone and
this trip has opened my eyes, improved my confidence and enhanced my desire to
travel.
