Umeå

Yes! That remote place in the world texists! I'm ithere! and yes, well, this a little lost, but is full of forests everywhere!

Well, I will talk a bit about the trip:

I woke up at 4 am, having slept less than 4 hours. at 5 I was with Hernán and Adriana in the airport. At 5:45 I already had passed the control. The trip more or less normal, the stress of the 3 scales, but without any problem or delay, we haven´t pay per kg overweight.

Ffinally, after 11 hours of travel, at 18:25 we arrived to Umeå.

Hernán, is going to another university, so a girl was waiting him at the airport, with a car, and told her if she could bring us. The nice girl took us all, including a girl that we met on the plane, also Spanish.

We went to collect the keys to the international office, sign some papers, and a taxi (yes, it paid a taxi for a 2 minutes, but with the suitcases, and since I came free to go from the airport to office... ) took us to the residence.

The building, how to explain... is rare, and dirty. In the buildings, everything smells like Indian food (although sometimes it smells like cookies, mysteriously). It has double doors, one for building and another by corridor, so people can not get into my corridor without a key. Overall, I went to the room, and even worse. The rom is not small, that is true, but the walls are gray, the floor is also a typical gray with a gym floor. The worst of all, no doubt, is the bathroom... For those who remember, it seems to the hostel in Strasbourg, the walls are like plastic, is also gray, of course (although a bit yellow), and well, here comes the big... no shower! is just a hole in the floor, a sink, and a curtain that separates the toilet...

And well, not much more to tell. The cold is horrible, and that it's summer! down the street I wear sweatshirt and coat, and now I will the hat with earflaps, because I can not more... besides, I'm completely stupid, and tonight I let some cracks in the window open, without knowing it, and I've frozen all the night!

Another thing is that everything is really expensive!. A purchase of 4 things: meatballs, 3 bananas a little pasta, a can of tomatoes, gloves, garbage bags, a few cereals and a mop... 300 SEK, 30 €! and everything is bad, white brand...

But good to say that although everything seems bad, everything I've put on the blog, I´m really happy! all new experiences, and I haven´t done too much yet, but believe that time here will be really great!

well, a hug to everyone! and write something in the blog!
