Hej!

Hej! My name is Natalie Ann Booth and I go to Maumee Valley Country Day School. Every year my school takes the month of November off from conventional school and we spend our time experiencing different parts of the world in a different way. We call it Winterim. During Winterim you can do an on campus winterim where you do an in depth study on a topic on campus with a group of people. You can also go to school in one of our sister schools or do an independent study or internship with a company or school. You can even go on a trip to a different country with a group of people. For Winterim this year I am going to School in Sweden for three weeks. I will spending most of my time in Sala Sweden and I will be staying with two amazing host families: the Moens and the Bromans! Many of my friends are from different counties, Sweden, Germany, Spain, China, England; and I have always been interested in how their life differs from mine at home and the different languages they speak. It is a gift to speak many different languages, and that is my goal, to learn Swedish! I am so excited to explore the culture and the language of Sweden. Two more days!!! Tack, förrän senare.
