Hello again everybody!
These past weeks have been pretty calm - last weekend my host families oldest daughter visited and stayed for the weekend. We also celebrated Laurin's 16th birthday, which was nice :) Other than that I have pretty much just relaxed, been at school, and had fun with Laurin. We are getting along very well and are enjoying it here. School is going very well - I have gotten a lot of friends and like my subjects - I am doing: English, History, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Outdoors Recreational Sports, which is all sports and gymnastics basically - and sometimes tours like mountain biking, rock climbing etc.. School is from 8:40 till 15:10 every day. I have been doing some things with my host family lately as well - last weekend we burnt a big pile of rubbish over at the neighbors place, and yesterday we had dinner at an indian restaurant - I had Chili Chicken, by far the spiciest dish I have ever had. Recently I bought a surfboard which I am having a lot of fun cleaning and working about. I also experienced my first roadkill - an unlucky rabbit, they are quite a pest here. Generally I have had a great time - but please, ask questions if you want to know anything, or want pictures of anything specific, otherwise I will son have a hard time filling anything into this :D
Cheers!
