Ice climbing

Hey there. I started climbing a half a year, and i am getting more and more interested in ice climbing. the thing is that i kind of want to take a course, that lasts maybe a week or so! The thing is that i live in Norway. and yes i know there are a LOT of ice climbing opportunities here. But, its expensive! so I thought that maybe i could combine it with a vacation :P ( for example to Canada or Alaska) Do any of you have any experience with any companies, countries? And where will i get the most for my money?

Thanks!

If you are serious about learning to ice climb let me know. I live in Telemark and go Ice and mixed climbing all the time. I have even held a few courses for beginner - advanced ice climbers.
