Temporarily Swedish: December 2010
http://temporarilyswedish.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
I'm living in Sweden for 5 months. Approximately. More or less. I'm leaving on the 6th, so 8 days, really. Spent the holidays in California with my dad. There's a strange, pervasive sense of detachment that's dominating my life right now, and I think it's because I'm preemptively saying goodbye to people. While I'm really, really excited to leave, there's probably a great deal of nervousness I simply haven't acknowledged yet. All their bills are different sizes! I guess it's not just a Swedish thing....

Temporarily Swedish: July 2011

I'm living in Sweden for 5 months. I updated more regularly than I thought I would. It's not much, as excuses go, but it's all I've got. Last time I mentioned anything, I was exploring Berlin- more specifically, the Pergamon Museum. And its incredible archeological exhibits. I left with a promise to talk about the rest of that trip (which was 5 more days. I think. It's been a while.), so here's what I remember:. I didn't even forget anything important on the way out. 05:30 - Board Ryanair flight to Berli...

Temporarily Swedish: January 2011

I'm living in Sweden for 5 months. Sorry about the lack of updates. Things have been simultaneously hectic and stagnant here- when stuff is happening, then everything is happening. Otherwise, I'm basically sitting in my room, using Rosetta Stone or procrastinating on a blog update. The Raslatt student association just opened a new restaurant (okay, that's a generous description. Eatery? Groceries aren't expensive, but food prices are mindblowing. Anyway, life is good. Last night, I entered a riddle/l...

I'm living in Sweden for 5 months. The Wonders of Berlin (pt. I). It's my fifth day in Berlin. It's amazing how my traveling experience changed once I was alone. Everything requires more courage to initiate. There's no one to turn to when I feel confused, and no one to laugh at my foreign blunders as I stumble clumsily around the city. I feel conspicuous with a backpack and camera, acutely aware of potential faux pas (faux passé? I've been to a fair few museums, including Berlin's own museum of natural h...

Temporarily Swedish: February 2011

I'm living in Sweden for 5 months. I've spent the last week in Athens, Greece, and it's been wonderful. First of all, my class schedule is erratic and irregular. It's bizarre. It turned out that I had a full week available for travel if I ditched one class- and seeing as the one class was a Corporate Finance lecture, I had no reservations booking my flight to Athens. The Temple of Poseidon at sunset. Yeah. Ic Panathinaiko Stadium, which is built entirely out of white marble and seats about 45,000 people&...
