Starting Folkhögskola

School starts in the middle of August in Sweden. Those who were moving in were welcome on the Sunday before school start, so Linnea and I packed Mormor's car full and off we went on the long drive. It takes about four hours from Skara to Svalöv.
Linnea had got a part in a room in the Östhem part of the school, the building you see here:



It didn't exactly feel like this was a double room... More a single room where they had just put in an extra bed, desk and chair... hmmm..? Only one small wardrobe to share, one tiny shelf in the bathroom. Not a really great start to be honest. We had already put her on the waiting list for a single room, but no guarantee of course.


So we tried to make the best of it. After Linnea had unpacked a bit we went and got some more things that were lacking, her "starter pack" of food, and a fan - because the room was extremely hot.


I am hoping this will be a great year for her! It will be very exciting to hear all about it once it kicks off!
