Hudiksvall

Hey! I'm in Sweden on the International Rotary Youth Exchange for a year! And I'm loving it! Here, I'm staying in a town called Hudiksvall which in about 300 km north of Stockholm on the coast. It's a cute little town with about 35000 inhabitants and lots of red, orange and yellow houses and old buildings. I live 3 km from my school and a 5 minute walk from the center of the town. I'm living with a very nice host family. Hakan-Dad, is a manager of an eco. fuel company and travels alot to do business. Marita-Mom, is a chairperson of a fibre optics research and production company. Anna-sister, is my age and interested in journalism and retro stuff. Elin-sister, is in Port hope, Ontario right now on exchange so I get her bedroom. Rosa-cat, is very fluffy and affectionate but she recently broke her arm and has to wear a cone around her head, which she hates. We live in a yellow, green and red house. It looks very nice and Swedish inside with pretty wallpaper, hardwood floors and ceilings, white furniture and big windows. I get my own room with green walls, black accent furniture and a slanted ceiling. We have a very nice backyard and like to eat outside on the patio. Hakan is really good at barbecuing and Marita is an excellent gardiner.
