A New Place called home

Oh my god, this is so amazing!It is actually 5.03 in the morning, the first morning in a new country, my new home! I still find it hard to realize this, and I think it will still take some time until I can fully grasp the whole extend of what this means....home-Sweden. Wow. I just feel so happy and over-excited, I would love to jump up from my bed on the living room floor and wake everyone up and dance through the house and tell the world how happy I am! :) There is a constant grin that has manifested on my face and I feel like I could hug everything. I think I am in love - with this beautiful country. It was this I feel. I just opened my eyes and looked out of the window and saw the Swedish flag right in front of me, hanging sleepy and  a little wrapped up from a balcony in the mornings clean light, 

Misty morning barefoot rumble. I took a picture to freeze this moment in time and remember it forever. I am so happy.  The scenery is beautiful, picturesque. I am looking out onto the sea, it is a cloudy day, covered in bright light, misty, chilly, amazing. Some people are up already too, riding their cars to work, minding their daily business. Another ordinary morning for Stockholm, but the most exciting morning for me! I could cry from happiness, my eyes are all teary. Maria Taylor is singing in my ear and I just feel so whoa..... !!!

Yesterday was was almost unreal, it was like spending the day in a bubble. I got off the plane and talked to an Australian on the bus. Time flew, and suddenly Manne was there to pick me up. I was feeling rusty so I decided I just had to go for a swim, even though it was a little chilly and windy. After a short brisk walk we got to the stadhus and Manne dived in the water from a three meter high wall, very brave. ;) I took it easy and jumped in from the lower stairs. The water was pretty much freezing, but after a little while it just felt so rejuvenating and amazing!!!! What a panoramic view of the whole city from there, in the water. 

Some Indian tourists admired our bravery.  Eventually we got out of the water, changed and embarked on a quest for food and wine. We stooped at a bar and enjoyed a glass, then went into ‚Hemköpp‘ and bought lots of fruit and veg. Manne met a friend from school and she had a German guy with her! So we decided to meet up for tonight's karaoke. Its gonna be fun.

Now I have to get up as quietly as possible not to wake everyone up, which would be really tempting, but no,..they would only be annoyed.  And I wanna make a pleasant house guest after all. :) Really deep and quietly happy inside. I drift through the days like walking on a cloud. I wonder how long this love-affair will last? What does it matter, time is not important, as long as I am here....

Sverige, mitt stora kärlek! Jag älskar dig!
