Some news

I had an interview with a newspaper while I was in Costa Rica. They had now published it: click here to read it (its in spanish)

The students from New Media finished their works, despite me pestering them all the time asking: "Ok, now... but what is the concept?" To this they usually sighed and looked a bit desperate. But they all did a great job.

It is a fact now that I will be teaching in Jølster for 4 weeks during march / april. That will be interesting: travelling more than 200 kms to work, with people from 16/17 years old, all of them norwegians... and my norwegian is still rather, er, crude ;-)

Teaching and etc

My students from Journalism -UiB- survived!

I hope they had some fun, aside from the stress of having me as a teacher ;-) All in all, I think they had a good experience and -as always- I learned a whole lot from them as well. To mention one: Paulo, remember that journalists are also human beings, he he (though deep I hope they would leave the "dark side of the force" and turn to documentary). NExt week I have DVD authoring with the people from New media, and then they come the TV & Film People (wicked grinn: bua ha ha ha ha!!!)

COSTA RICA! I miss my family a lot, and the first days here in Bergen, which were rather rainy, were tough on me. At the same time, I really didn´t have the time to get nostalgic. Lot´s of work and projects that need a push to come to life. We have had a nice feedback from our friends from Flimmer Films here in Bergen, regarding a new documentary project. Time will tell...

Now I am dreaming of spending some time abroad with Linn, around my birthday next april. Maybe Spain in Mallorca??? (gimme gimme!)
