Sweden: A Quick List

Lots of things to write about, but the computers about to run out of power and me and Cass have got to run as well, so a quick list for now.

1. Cass's old host family live in an incredible house in the middle of a forest. It's like living in a fairytale. I looked out the bedroom window this morning and saw a swan in the lake (yes, there is a huge lake in their backyard).
Me: Cass, there's a swan in the lake! And I can see a horse!
Cass: (Casually, because that's just what you see here) Yeah.

2. Everyone here speaks English, and they speak it well.

3. Stockholm. Incredible.

4. Fika. A Swedish custom where you sit down, have a coffee and some food (like these delicious cinnamon buns) with friends. Very nice custom.

5.

A photo of Cass since she neglected to put one up of herself. The royal castle is about 50 meters to Cass's right.

6. I love this country. Even if it is freezing.
