Having the opportunity to spend six months in Sweden over the Summer of 2010 was one of the most amazing experiences in my life, and I've had quite a few to choose from. It was difficult a first making new friends with the cultural differences and the short duration, but after a while the Swedes got to know us and really opened up to make us feel like an integral part of their social community. Thanks to everyone involved, especially the people I work with everyday that made it happen.
