SWEDEN!

Well the past two weeks have been so awesome!! I am in Europe now whoohooo!! We are in a city called Lulea, Sweden. We are something like 100 kilometers from the Arctic Circle! It’s unbelievably beautiful! I live on a street with 2 other houses, surrounded by trees and water. It’s pretty pretty pretty chilly here though. It was about 35 degrees when we got here. It’s a shock to all us Arizonans. It’s so different, and so wonderful. Our trip here was, well, pretty long and terrible. Four hour flight from Mexico City to Newark, 2 hour layover, 7 hour flight to Stockholm, Sweden, then 12 HOUR BUS RIDE to Lulea. Crazy. But we are all so happy we are finally here!! I can’t believe it! We met our host families that night. I am staying with a young couple named Andres and Mia. They are darling and they have an adorable little house that looks like it’s straight from the Ikea catalogue. They have 2 little schnauzers, Pepsi and Pious. So cute. On Tuesday we had a pretty relaxing day because half of the group was still travelling to Sweden because they left a day later. So, I feel pretty rested and not too jet lagged. I’m so excited to start this new leg of the trip!
I’ll write later about the past 2 weeks in Puebla and Mexico City, but for now enjoy my pictures! I’ll try to write soon!
