Introduction

Hello!

My name is Guro, and I am a fifteen years old girl from Norway. In Norway I live in a really small town called Langesund. In my spare time I love to play handball, be with friends and travelling. I have travelled a lot before, but never alone, so I´m really, really exited!! I`ve created this blog so I can write about my (hopefully) fantastic travelling in the United States of America this month. I will not only write about the travelling, but also something about the USA in general, immigration, slavery, historical events and a little bit about persons from the USA.

The reason why I´m travelling and why I travelling to the United States of America is because I love to travel (of course), but also because I want to learn and experience new things. In USA is nothing the same; you can go on shopping in New York, going in the mountains or lying at the beach – you can do whatever you want! I chose to visit New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami. That`s because I will experience a little bit of everything, I would not just laying at the beach. I feel that New York is a must when you visit the United States, and I cannot wait to go on shopping in New York`s streets!!

 

I will be there in 4 weeks and as I said I will visit four states: New York, Los Angeles, Miami and San Francisco. I`m really excited about the trip, and I`m looking forward to tell you about it.

  

 In this post can you read a little bit about the prices for the flight and hotel, and the itinerary.

As you may be know the journey to the USA is really long. My journey starts Wednesday the 8th of July. My plane leave from Gardemoen 14:05 AM and the plane lands in Los Angeles 16:05 AM next day. I think that`s better than stopping different places. This flight will take 10 hours and 55 minutes.

This plane costs 3999 NOK (619 USD).

I will be in Los Angeles one week and I`m going to stay at Motel 6 Los Angeles LAX. It isn`t a really pretty hotel, but it was cheap and its near the airport (3,4 km) and the city (1,3 km). For 7 days I had to pay 4200 NOK (651 USD). The hotel offers transport from the airport, so that`s okay.

 

The hotel has an outdoor swimming pool and offers room service every day, so I think this going to be great. I will order a better hotel when I visit New York. The hotel is not so important to me on this journey, because I will not be there so much anyway, and therefor I think it`s unnecessary to pay a lot when you just sleep there.

When I have been in Los Angeles for one week I will visit San Francisco. After one week in San Francisco I will went to Miami in 10 days and finally New York. More about the hotels and states coming soon, I can`t tell you the whole journey now, right?

But, I can tell you that I will went home from New York to Norway the 5th August. At this journey I must stop in København in Denmark, so this journey will take 11 hours and 30 minutes, so it`s the same time as to Los Angeles. 

I will talk more about the USA general, and of course more about the journey and the other hotels soon! So... I hope you will follow me on this journey, I think it`s going to be really, really awesome!!

I will write again soon!!! Lots of love from Guro
