(My Swedish is currently limited to things like crudely ordering generic items at a restaurant, apologies. I’m not the best at learning new languages but I’m slowly figuring it out!)

I’m so excited :3 I worked so hard to get into my first choice of university and they accepted me! There’s still a lot of logistics that need done but I think I’m on track. I’m going back to school to be a game level designer and hopefully find work in Sweden after I graduate

This last Christmas/New Years I toured various towns I’d possibly go to for school. There’s so much I was able to see and I loved all of it. From Stockholm to Luleå everywhere felt special <3

I want to explore and learn everything I can. I want to learn Swedish it’s such a beautiful sounding language. I’m going to be living pretty far north and I’m legitimately thrilled about the winters there. I think I’m going to be really happy

        It’s basically like a trade school if you’re familiar with US schooling. I’m going to be in Boden. I really wanted to be in Stockholm but since I’m not Swedish or EU I have to pay for everything with savings. Going to be cutting it close as is, the Stockholm campus was too financially risky for me to apply for

            I got to visit Luleå in early January, phone was saying it hit -15f/-25c. I suspect Boden is similar since they’re pretty nearby? I loved being in that cold it made me happy. Had to buy better hat and gloves though my face felt like it was going to fall off
