Written on friday 21st:

Today is my first year anniversary with this wonderful city. A year ago today, I came to this city with no home, a sore throat, rain pouring down on me as I tried to carry a bassguitar, two heavy handbags, two heavy suitcases that I tried to fit the world in as I had no intentions of going back. Not a very well welcome some may think, but I was still happy, sooo happy!

And today, the sun is shining and there is a huge blockparty on the street I live on: Skånegatan. It's the city's gift to me : happy anniversary darling!

A lot has happened since that rainy day: I finished the first year of my master's programme, I learnt a good deal of swedish- enough to read novels (not easy-reading crap), I've met the cutest guy and we've been together for over 9 months now, and I' ve been living in the wonderful Södermalm. So I decided to make this blog, not for you to read but as a gift for the city, for our first anniversary, for giving me all these nice memories already.
