So it has been a full week back in Sweden and it has been full of ups and downs. I have had a lot of fun and done some great work this week I feel. One thing that I am still short on is things to fill my time outside of work.

My colleagues are great, but I also feel bad relying only on them for social activity. So I am hoping this week I will be able to get some more after work things planned, like climbing, volleyball etc.

One way I managed to keep busy was by going for some food and some drinks with my colleague, who has also been helping me learn some Swedish… As it turns out I cannot pronounce anything correctly.

Some of the phrases I’ve been tasked to learn are here below. Always useful in daily conversation.

All in all I survived my first week, I managed to get some life admin done, and understand more how to live in this really cool country. I am toying with the idea of going somewhere this week maybe Oslo, or Stockholm. But that will all be decided as the week goes on.

I hope you’ve all had a great weekend and for all the brits enjoy the day off tomorrow. I am not jealous at all.
