Visit from Sogn og Fjordane University College (HSF)



Christian and Tom are now officially famous. Or at least a little bit. They've made it to the official pages of Sogn og Fjordane University College (Høgskulen i Sogn og Fjordane) in Norway. How on earth did this happen, you might ask. Well, I'll tell you.

It all started when we on the 11th of October got a visit from HSF. Two lovely ladies, Åse Løkeland and Helga Kalhagen, came to visit Ningxia University to see whether there are possibilities of an exchange program. They have heard nice things about our Sinonor project and wanted us to tell about our experiences so far. And since we both did our teacher training in Sogndal we were more than glad to help.

So we went with them to an amazing mosque (looked kind of like Taj Mahal) and told them how nice Yinchuan is. We also got to watch some calligraphy art, and got two master pieces of the artist (who looked remarkably like a chinese Jahn Teigen). There we told them about our follow-up work, that we would like to spread the word of our project and the work we do here in China. They were really nice ladies, so they asked us if we wanted to write a web letter to their web pages. We said "definitely, yes" and sent our little letter. And now you can read the letter for yourself. Unfortunately for you English speakers, this is only in Norwegian.
