Taking the Sand out of Ström

I cannot believe that my exchange is 1/3 finished!  Were did the last 3 months go?  Looking back everything blurs together and I don't want it to!  I want the time to slow down so I can make everything last forever and make my brain expand so I can remember all the tiny things that momentarily stand out and that I will (unfortunately) forget the next month.
Living with the Sandström's as my first family was amazing!  Even though I was an only child they made everyday fun and educational for my Swedish language learning.  They definitely made me feel like one of their own and for that I will be forever grateful...

...especially for the math tutoring :)

Coming to the Ström's is very exciting!  I will still be an only child. They have three children but one is in New Zealand on her exchange and the other two are studying at the university in Lund.  I no longer have to bike 30 minutes in the morning to get to school - only 10 and I am much closer to the center of Uppsala.  I am so excited to spend the holiday season and the next 3 months with the Ström's.
