Wow, the last days have been super busy!
Right now I'm in a break in school, so let's make this a quick one ;-)
This weekend we have HUGE Januari sales at MediaMarkt, so I'll be working the whole weekend. After the weekend my boyfriend will be moving to Holland! I'm really too excited for this, haha.
It's really weird to be back in Holland, everything is moving fast, there are a lot of people, cars, busses, metro's and what more! I hope I'll get used to it, but I think it will only be a matter of time.
Well, really short one now, since I haven't done that much the past days (mostly unpacking and looking what stuff can be thrown away).
Hejdå!

Tillbaka till Nederländerna
Så, at the moment I'm in the Mariott Hotel in Stockholm!
Tomorrow we're going with the car (and an improvised bike stand, I'm seriously surprised I still have my back lights on my bike) to Göteborg to go on the boat to Kiel.
It scares me a bit to be in Stockholm. It's super busy here, I've heard ambulances now 3 times and I just want rest and hills around me. The view of another building disturbs me. I hope I will get used to this, because I need to get used to this. One thing is sure: I won't ever settle in Amsterdam. It's too busy and too much people on one part for me.
I like the rest and peace of me. Lets just hope I can keep that peace with me in a busy city like Amsterdam.
Hejdå!

More travel and purging
Last year, everything was so different. It's amazing how many things have changed.
I never thought I would give up buying clothes. I really thought it was a big achievement that I didn't had a credit card, but I would borrow money to buy new clothes. Today I'm packing up two (!) more garbage bags full of clothing to give to charity. It feels silly that I've bought all these clothes, especially since I brought them with me to Sweden.
A year ago, I was afraid to make the jump and decide to go to Sweden. By putting it in my New Years resolutions, I thought it would give me the extra push to do it. Today, I'm writing this from my computer in Sweden. I did it. I jumped, and look where I came! I never thought it would be this messy and would change my life that much, but I'm so happy and glad I did it.
I wonder where I'll be in a year.
Today has been a busy day, since I need to do a lot before moving (back) to Holland. I packed a lot today, tomorrow I will do most of the kitchen and start cleaning some furniture. I worked on my thesis and talked to a friend of mine who I haven't spoke to for more than half a year! He was living in Amsterdam, but moved back to Rome. This makes my plans for going to Italy this summer a bit more concrete, and it turns out the bus isn't that expensive. Let's hope I can fix everything, because I would love to go to Italy! (It's on my list for this year, so I need to do it ;-) )
I'm going to do a bit more work, since I'm almost finished and then go to my lovely bed.
Tomorrow it's gingerbread house building day! (Yes, I just made up my own holiday)

Happy New Year!
for everyone!
I hope you had a fantastic celebration with your loved ones!
My Christmas and New Year was amazing, cosy and really warm.
Between Christmas and New Years Eve, my boyfriend decided to take me out on a lovely dinner and sleep in a hotel in Sundsvall, with a beautiful, amazing view over the whole city. I had no idea he was taking me there, so I was pretty amazed. (Did I ever mention that if I'm amazed I shut up? It's a pretty unique experience to see me silent)
After New Years, we went to Kiruna (2nd of Januari) and had an awesome night in the ICEHOTEL. After that night, we went horse back riding, had a lovely walk through Kiruna and went dogsledding and on snowmobiles (those last 3 were the first time I did that! ;-) ).
The snowmobiles were a bit scary, because I thought it would be hard to ride one of those, but it wasn't that hard (luckily!). I had a lot of fun, but it was a bit hard for me to keep on the tracks, so I decided to make my own (according to one of the guides). Dogsledding was a lot of fun too, especially because the dogs were so enthusiastic and had a lot of fun! One of the dogs that ran before 'our' sled just had puppies (one week before!) and she was already up and running. The guide told us she wanted to run and she would be really unruly if she didn't run. After the run, we helped to bring the dogs back to their kennels and she was a really strong dog! She was pulling the whole time, because she really wanted to go back to her puppies.
At the moment I'm working on my thesis (and writing this blog, as I didn't write anything the last weeks, and I need to keep up). I hope I can finish it today or tomorrow. Which would give me the opportunity to enjoy my weekend in Stockholm to the fullest, so that's my goal right now!
Hejdå
