When I first moved to Sweden I was scared because I didn’t know if I was going to make any friends. But I was also very excited because I hadn’t gone on a plane for a really long time! When I first arrived in Sweden I couldn’t wait to see our new house! But my parents didn’t tell us anything about the house so all of us were like kernels in a microwave just popping up and down!
When we arrived at the house we just couldn’t believe the size it was like five times the size of our old house!
Our neighbourhood was fantastic but we all felt a little sick because it was our first time making new friends!


First Day of school

My first day of school at B.I.P.S.S. was very inviting. In the last month we went to Gotland, an island. I was very nervous and didn’t want to go, but mom got me into going. I had a great experience!
At the end of the school year my class was graduating so we had a Musical about FISH! I was a sparkly Herring and I stood out so much and since I was the shortest I had to go in front do these different moves!


Summer Time!

In Sweden before we came to Canada we had three weeks of summer vacation. It was kind of cold but it was fun because we went to this pond near our house and there were giant fish and I mean giant! But the water was really warm and the sun was really hot if you stayed still for a while.


New school again

Rodabergs Skolan is fantastic! I really hate that we have to leave it soon.
My teacher is from New Zealand! He has long blond hair and is really funny sometimes or he tried to be and the class was just silent!
Some of the fun things we did were going on a 10 Km hike; going to a museum where I almost broke my nose! and much more. Mr. W has this Quote Board and unfortunately I’m on it! After the 10Km hike we came out of the subway and I said ‘’Are we outside” and he started laughing and he wondered if I’d even came. But it just looked so fake that’s why I said it. I’m really going to miss Rodabergs Skolan and all my new friends but Mr. W said I’m welcome back!


What I liked about Sweden

I liked being outdoors in Sweden because you just never knew what would happen or what adventures you’d go on once you stepped outside. And the best thing about Sweden was the old town. It is just so cool and different!
