So today I will speak about the winter which is really soon now! This week I went in different shops with my friends to have a look on the winter clothes. So here in Sweden there are two things that you really need to buy for the winter: special shoes and special jacket. The 2 last winters in Sweden were particularly cold, long and strong. From half November to half April, the temperature was between 0 and -20 degrees with one meter of snow in Stockholm. That’s why you need to buy warm and long shoes and jacket.
Otherwise today I went to our country house with Lars, my host father, in order to prepare it for the winter and the snow. So we covered the boats, put everything (garden chairs, garden tools…) inside, turned the water and the electricity off and take care of the plants…
Concerning the weather here, the temperature is between 5 and 10 degrees the day and around 0 during the night. The sunrise is around 7h45 and the sunset around 17h40.
To finish I just will evocate few anecdotes that I noticed this week:
First I went to the cinema for the first time (to see “abduction”, good film). So the cinema here is very confortable but so expensive! Nearly 11 euro to watch a simple film and 15 if it is in 3D. But you are placed in the cinema and you can choose where.
Secondly I saw that if you put your empty bottles or cans in a special machine, this one give you (few) money.
To finish, yesterday I had dinner with my family in a brasserie at… 17h15!!!
To conclude for today I just would like to thanks the rugby’s French team with offering me the best birthday present: going to the world cup final!
Bye!
