My life is a turbulent one, working 30 hours shift on two dfferent places and going around the clock, other days i dont have to get up at all. what then pulls me out of bed?

We've never met, my name is Alex and I was just reading your posts on working in Norway. I'd love to do a barista exchange in Norway, I have lived in Europe but never been to Norway.

I have a friend who I could stay with in Bergen. Do you know any good cafes there who might be interested in an exchange?

Thanks!

Alex
