Me and my friend, Kristine, were to lucky Norwegian students who got a summerjob in "Atyrau Institue Of Oil and Gas". We lived in this city for 5 weeks, and it was quite different from a normal Norwegian city. First of all the temeratures was almost the doubble than the usual westcoast Norweigan summertemperatures. And second of all the mosquitos was huge!
When we first arrived to this city we though "what the .... are we supposed to do here for 5 weeks!" But at the end of these weeks we travelled back to Norway with a lot of new experiences :)
