Folkehøyskole after high school

Folkehøyskole is a type of school that one goes to after high school, when one wants a break from study. One chooses different courses that conductor over a year, this can be anything from fashion, theater, dance, skiing, football, travel etc. One lives at school and the amount of students changes from school to school. It excites around 80 schools of this type in Norway and the most important thing is that you do not get grades. This is just to have fun and benefit a year by learning exactly what you want without exams and tests. Schools often go on school trips to other countries and this is often one of the highlights of the year. I went to a school in a City called Sandefjord, where I took a cures in fashion. I was able to travel to both London and New York and I have made friends for life.
