Plus its pretty useful and quite cool to be able to speak Swedish. Im a big advocate for making my own changes and in the past year I suffered through not allowing myself to do what I really wanted to. I think it will benefit me not to be constantly surrounded by vets and to take things i want to do further. The only other course apart from this I want to enrol for is the rock climbing course in Swiss Cottage. Yaaaay, an exciting, independent year ahead I think.
"talking about the weather" - so awesome, typically swedish when you have nothing else to say.. :-)
ReplyDeleteI didn't know you speak five languages already, that's impressive!!
