Hey Everyone~!
I'm in Sweden! Even better, I'm in Uppsala! Or is it? I'm sitting in the hostel room and realising that maybe coming here a week early to a student town deserted of students was not the smartest idea.... there is like NOONE HERE. I am sharing a dorm with two older guys who are not students. I also got incredibly lost getting to the hostel, and the wheels of my EXTREMELY HEAVY luggage either froze over or got clogged up with so many clumps of salt that they literally stopped rolling and so I was DRAGGING my suitcase around in the blistering cold trying to find where the crap I was meant to go when really I had no idea because all I had was some very vague instructions that didn't match anything I could see and I didn't have a map and yet again, global roaming did not seem to be working! Also my luggage was so heavy, I was going down an escalator and it went rolling down it, dragging me along seeing as I felt it not a good idea to let go. That was fun. It wasn't too bad I caught myself pretty quick but hey - it was still pretty crazy!
The one good thing is that I have WIFI! And also that I made it here safely. I did find the hostel in the end. It was pretty crazy for a while and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed firstly because this hostel seems to be deserted and secondly because I have no idea what to do now. I went for a walk around the hostel and found that there is nothing and nobody but it's a nice hostel... very clean! I also can't fit my gigantic luggage into the place I'm meant to put my luggage under my bed... so now I don't know what to do with it. It's just sitting in the middle of the dorm in everyone's way. Not that there is many people to get in the way off. Hmmm.... so I think I should probably go outside and explore. Hopefully at breakfast tomorrow there will be more people to see and find out exactly what I should do. Otherwise apparently Stockholm is where it is at!
There is no snow! But you can tell there could have been because of all the ... salt? I think it is. Lots of crystalised crap on all the pathways and roads that make it impossible to wheel my suitcase around. Salt is meant to be used to dissolve the snow... sooo..... there must have been some. But WHERE IS IT NOOOOW??? And where are all the people???? Golly... this is all so strange and odd. I think I might go outside and take a look around! (with my map that makes no sense cause it is in Swedish.
