Heja Sverige :D

Hej,

I am here in Sweden for 5 days now and its quite awesome. I have been at the arrival camp in near of Stockholm and met many awesome people from all around the world.
We did some cool activities and also went swimming in the lake. One thing about Sweden that I already love is that the Swedes are eating all the time.

the lake Mälaren in Stockholm (the 3rd largest in Sweden btw)

On saturday some of the YFU members went with us to the Central Station of Stockholm where a few of us had to take the train to get to our hostfamilies the other were picked up by their hostfamily at the camp. I had to take the train to Norrköping and from there to Tranås, but the train from Stockholm was delayed so I missed the other train and had to wait for two hours in Norrköping so I decided to use the opportunity and went into city.

And then i took the train and arrived in Tranås at 3 pm.
Today I already had my first ice hockey practise with the local team and it was also really good...so I am looking forward to a great year here in Sweden :D

My Hostfamily...Finally

Today I finally got my hostfamily and I am so happy now. I will live in Tranås a little city in the south of Sweden, which has about 18,000 inhabitants. The city is located in the near of lake Sommen and the next bigger cities in the surroundings are Linköping and Jönkoping, which are both approximately 1 hour from Tranås away, I believe. I will also go to school in Tranås at Holavedsgymnasiet. I am also very excited that in Tranås there is an ice hockey team, Tranås AIF, and I can play with them during this year.

I have four hostsilbings, two hostsisters and two hostbrothers, but the oldest hostsister has already moved out and both hostbrothers are only at home at the weekends so most of the time there is just my younger hostsister at home.

Now that I now where I will live I am looking forward moer than ever to be there.
And btw, I just realised that there are just 13 days from now on, so there is not so much time left :D
