It's been a while...

It's been a while since I last wrote on my blog! There was a lot going on during the last week and I was away. Last week my parents visited me here in Sweden. They arrived with the perfect autumn weather showing Umeå from it's best side. Almost the whole week was nice weather so I could show them the most important part when you go hiking in Sweden: starting a fire and grill sausages! :)

We drove all together down to Hofors, where my father's sister lives. And suprise surprise! in the "south" (still north of Stockholm) we had the first snow this year!!! Not a lot but enough to cover the grass a bit for some hours. It's still pretty warm (around 10 degrees) in Umeå so we still have to wait for the snow.

On Saturday my parents flew back home and I went to Stockholm to meet my friends Nadja and Claudia. We had some fun days in Stockholm seeing Stockholm from the boat, walking a lot!, getting up having no idea what the weather was (our youth hostel was "underground"), taking funny pictures, eating delicious pastries, listening to pippi longstocking stories,...

Now I'm back inUmeå and hoping my luggage unpacks itself, hoping snow is arriving soon, noticing that days are really shorter in Umeå than Stockholm, having a new Lindgren-book on my night table, having good memories...
