Life in a bag and a laptop

Since I left Cape Town 17th of June I have been around and about a lot. I have had zero/nada/none single day with just staying home and doing nothing. There has always been a meeting or work or a trip somewhere. I am still going on like that until the end of August. And then most of the fall too..

Restless Soul on the Roads.

Home. Right now home is with my mum in my hometown Mjölby. A city with 14 000 people. Yes, most people know each other or at least recognise you if you are around the same age. I really do not care though. I have my own room, fast wifi and homemade food. What more do you need? :) I do not have time to do much more than sleep anyway.

Work. For you who doesn't know; I am working at a home for refugee youth. They are 16-18 years old and coming alone as refugees from different countries. Most common countries are Afghanistan, Somalia, Eritrea and Syria. We are their family. 24/7 we are around and we help them with anything you can imagine a teenager needs help with, + a lot of personal stuff and things to deal with, coming from places that are very different from Sweden.. I love it. It's my place, it's what I'm good at, what I wanna do. It is important I get a touch of this every year. It refills me with some great energy and self esteem.

I wanna write so much more, but once again a whole day is gone in emails and chats and meeting.. So Im our, need a brake from the screen. My laptop is my best friend, I guess, no one or no thing is spending more time with me... :)

Over and out!
