A little little break

Sorry that I haven't been here much lately. My little cold turned into a super nasty lung infection so I have been feeling very poorly for these last few days. 

I travelled back to Norway on Monday night to visit some friends, before travelling to Sweden to stay with my boyfriend. I had been having some breathing problems but put it down to my asthma and just got some new inhalers when I was in England. After a long bus journey to the airport on Monday night, we had to sleep there until our flight which wasn't leaving until the next morning. I made a little cozy area in one of the cafes and drank hot chocolate and napped but at 4am there was a fire and we had to evacuate. I think it was because I was awake from then that I felt so poorly. Once I got to Oslo, I spent only a couple of hours with my friends before going to the hospital where I was given asthma medicine and kept in overnight for observation. In the morning my nurses told me I had a lung infection and gave me some strong antibiotics. 

I travelled to Sweden on Thursday, it was a very long 9 hours on the train, I had woken up feeling very sick and was then constantly being sick on the train. I was even sick in Stockholm station which was very humiliating. Thankfully, Swedish people seem much less nosy that English people and I was left alone in my little corner with everyone doing their best not to pay any attention to me! Once I arrived, I crawled into bed and slept for some hours. 

Now I can feel that I'm getting healthier and stronger and I promise that I will be back here to write to you all soon. I miss you all very much, I hope you are keeping warm and safe and healthy and are enjoying the summer :)

  13. Ohhh no :( im so sorry you were so sick! It sounds awful! Are you any better now?

    I completely and utterly feel your pain about vomiting in train stations too :( When i was in Italy i felt horribly sick in the Florence train station and ran to find the loos only to discover they charged a euro entry (which i didnt have) so i had to be sick slap bang in the middle of the platform in a bin >_< I was also sick once more whilst boarding the actual train! To make things worse it was really busy and this one chinese couple refused to budge from the centre of the aisle and i was like 'if you dont move i will VOMIT ON YOUR FACE!' haha. My whole body cringes when i think of that day!

    We can be embarrassed at our shameful public vomiting together :D hehe xxxxx
