I was fortunate to have a friend from I know from Colorado visiting her home here in Sweden. Her family has a couple cute cottages in this forested western island right on the the banks of a small fjord. It was beautifully relaxing to slow my travel down, chill out, and also get some deeper human interaction after traveling solo for a few weeks.
Karin and her mother ,Helena, were wonderful hosts, picking me up from the bus station, giving me my own cottage, making and cleaning up after all meals, and taking me on a nature, history, and art tours of the island(s). It was refreshing to talk politics, learn some games as well as spend time doing nothing but reading, going for walks, and putting around in a little boat on the fjord.
It is always a treat to be able to spend time with a native home in their home country. I am grateful for the lovely forests, waterways, and my friend, Karin.
