She was an exchange student for a year, when she was in high school. You wouldn't have noticed her presence, as she was not news-worthy back then. (Had we only known... :) )

Haakon and Mette-Marit's educations

Crown Prince Haakon received Bachelor of Arts degree in political science in the University of California, Berkley in 1999.
Princess Martha Louise moved to New York in 2004, so she would have an American accent.

Haakon and Mette-Marit both studied in London during 2002/2003. Haakon studied international politics, while Mette-Marit studied at the School of Oriental and African studies.

Thanks Avalon for helping me out with this. I completely forgot that she moved to New York. I'm still kind of learning all the different royal families.

After starting at Oddernes upper secondary school in Kristiansand, Mette-Marit spent six months at Wangaratta High School located in North East Victoria in Australia as an exchange student with the exchange organisation, Youth For Understanding.

It must have been an unforgettable experience for Mette-Marit.
