and then she moved...

And it snowed...
and rachelle got glasses(her third host-dad is an optomitrist and owns an eyeglasses shop:D)
And she made cupcakes with her new host-sister, Ebba(11 years old)

She also has a new host sister, Anna, who is 15 and goes to her school.
They get on really well and have some of the same friends which is great. Anna is going on Rotary exchange next year as well!
She's been living here for 2 weeks now. It's a 10 minutes bike ride from school, 5 minute walk to town and right by a forest perfect for running in.
Her host dad, Axel, is a mechanical engineer and is in China right now. His wife, Christina, my host mother is a 'Nutritionist' and does several different things dealing with the subject of nutrition.

Rachelle is very happy here in Tågaborg, Helsingborg.
School is going good and she's starting Swedish courses every Tuesday and Thursday evenings- hopefully they will help her.

Friday she is going to see Erik Molinder in Vänersborg! Then... in 2 weekends I am off to Verbier, Switzerland with my 3rd host family.

Rachelle is now running another blog, just started today, of pictures... one thousand pictures for one word...
