Umeå, that place that for sure, you don´t know!

I´ve thought that it could be a good Idea to translate my blog, in order to help me with the writings in english.

Umeå, one of those hidden places on the world, near the Arctic Circle. You can see on the map

You may ask, what is Umeå?

It is the destination for my Erasmus. I'm going to spend 1 year freezing in the Swedish town.

Very cold, snowy, winter too dark and too light in summer, much Swedish, too much English to talk... what is better than all of this things to make an Erasmus?

What is better than goo 3000 km away to live a really EXPERIENCE?

as a girl said to me, you want to go to a Nordic country, go north for real:)

Umeå is the largest sweden´s city in the north of Sweden's, and it only has 100000 habitants, The same as Alcobendas, Its means, nothing. It is a university town, and 30000 of the habitants are students, so 1 in 3, not bad, right? In 2014 it will be the European capital of culture, what means that it isn´t so small and it´s not forgotten, I hope...

But, It´s the only Swedish city that doesn´t have an ikea... damn! where I'll buy my sheets?

well, the rest I'll tell you when I leave, now I've got just 2 months to embark on the adventure. And of course, if you want to know more about this wonderful city, you will have no choice but to come to visit me!, you are all invited! But there is only one condition, bring ham in your suitcase, I'm going to XD miss it!
