Changes

In the last few days happend a lot, i switched the Host family because it just didn´t worked out. My new Host Family is Living in Boden (pronounced Buden) this is like 40 min. away from Luleå by Bus.They having a small Farm, 4 Horses, chickens and 2 cats everything looks really cute, typical swedish :) Red Houses and White Windows. My Host Parents are both Lung Doctors, they are just kind of "Hobby Farmers". I have an Older Host Brother. All in one, everything is pretty perfect in the End <3
the following pictures are from the last few days, pictures of my new home will follow in the next days.

I really don´t know what that is with the swedish sunsets. I kinda fell in love with them, i´m watching them nearly every day, it´s just awesome to see colours in the sky that usually don´t belong there. that really makes me happy.








Music Festival in Luleå
               Below is a Picture of the Band called "Movits" its a swedish pop/reagge Band. they are actually pretty good!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnaeImQ0TSg

"Surströming" means "Sured Herring" and its traditional nothern swedish food.
Usually you catch the fish in Spring, Then the fish is going to be placed in 
hydrochloric acid, where the fish is going to rot for 1 or 2 month. You can
kind of imagine now that the fish must smell really bad. You have no Idea
how bad the smell actually is! it´s just disgusting. even tho we opened
it under the water the smell was unbelivably awful. Whatever, the main thing
is that i tried a piece of Surströming and i ended up, throwing up the rest of
the day. it´s nasty. DON´T TRY THAT!!! NEVER EVER!!!

Well, Hello There Autumm!

  1. Nur die Schweden wissen, ob Surströmming verdorben oder genießbar sind. Ich nehme an, du hast die falsche Dose erwischt. Es ist schön, zu lesen, dass es diese spezielle Spezialität immer noch gibt, denn das letzte Mal habe ich sie Ende der 80er Jahre gegessen.

  2. haha, so ziemlich jede Dose ist verdorben :) aber Surströming wird hier immernoch gegessen, überall, egal ob in der Schule oder zum Abendbrod oder einfach mal so. Aber ich glaube das kommt auch sehr drauf an wo man ist. Ich bezweifle das in Südschweden auch so viel Surströming gegessen wird. und ich lebe hier ja schon ziemlich nördlich (110 km. vom Polarkreis) und auch eher ländlich..
