Hey!

Have you heard of the term "staycation"? It's basically a vacation but you stay at home. So what about when you have two places you consider home and you are travelling to one of the places to the other? This is what I did. I left Vancouver to go home to Sweden for 20 days. Was it a vacation? But I was going home... So I'll call it a homecation. Because I like to make up words.

The day after I arrived I went out for lunch with my friend Jonathan. Then I shadowed him (actually I walked beside him but anyway) to one of his lectures. It was very interesting, I learnt a lot about urticaria. I also surprised my old high school classmate Selma by suddenly appearing in her lecture.
Then my bestie Malin came all the way from Lund back to Linköping (where we're from) just to see me. Yay! According to Google Maps that's 407 kilometers. Then the next day my other really good friend Frida arrived from Gothenburg (which is 279 kilometer according to Google Maps). I guess these distances depends on which route you take but they both travelled really far to see me and I was super happy to see them. To celebrate being together again we went out for drinks. We each had two drinks, talked about life and stuff, people watched, didn't recognize anyone and felt old and like strangers in our own town.
The 18th of May, which was the following day my family had planned an open house. We had invited a bunch of my friends, family friends and relatives to stop by and say hello.
