The countdown is on! At this point in my adventure I am thoroughly looking forward to coming home and reuniting with my family and my friends. Although of course I am enjoying myself tremendously here in Sweden, I still am excited to go back home and catch up with everyone.
I can’t believe how quickly this year is going by! I have always heard how life goes by faster and faster as you get older- but this is ridiculous! It does not feel like it’s been 11 months, but when I read back on all of the things I’ve done with this time I realize it really has been that long.
While I’m sitting here typing this blog- the little girl Mira is playing the whole star-wars theme song on her cello… so cute. I still really appreciate her presence in the house because it fills that hole that would be left from having my little brother Wells around. Call me a sucker but I love those kids! Of course it’s quite a bit different having a little brother than a little sister- instead of getting shot at by fake guns and arrows I’m helping with hair and nail polish but whatever the case it’s fun to be around their energy.
It's funny to see how Swedes respond to weather changes clothing-wise. I remember noticing this last fall, it's hard to find a balance for some people- you can see people walking around with t-shirts and jeans and if you glance to the other side of the street you will see others who are wearing their warmest winter jackets!
Also- after being reprimanded by friends for calling korv "bratwurst" in an earlier blog I will now correct myself. There are all types of korv. Korv is a general term for sausage. I'm sorry for those who were offended by my translation!
'Till next time
