Being a member of the UMD women's hockey team, I am fortunate to meet many great people from all over the world.. During the past 4 years I have gotten the opportunity to play with girls from Canada, USA, Finland, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, and Russia. I'm pretty much set for a place to stay if I ever want to travel over seas.
Through mutual freinds, I have met many players from other teams. After talking with other players, I have heard great things about other countries around the world. Lisa edman is from sweden and sent me some pictures of what it's like where she lives. It looks pretty sweet and I hope to see it all in person someday!! It's neat and interesting to see and hear about different parts of the world. Makes you appreciate what beautiful things you have around you and what else the world can offer. Here are some pictures of Sweden taken from her back yard!
Enjoy the mini vacation... :)

ReplyDeleteTool,
ReplyDeleteGetting to know people from other cultures is great way to learn that the world doesn't revolve around the USA, especially from my American point of view. Thanks for sharing
Sweden looks like a nice place to live. That's awesome you get to experience what many don't. How do I get involved in the team? ha JK!
