Although I haven't posted anything since I arrived here, I have been keeping a note of everything. It's actually hard to not write everything because so much seems to happen in one day!
Anyway, this was my first day...
First impressions
My journey to Uppsala was pretty
smooth and everyone I spoke to was so friendly and helpful. When I arrived in
Copenhagen I could tell the temperature was below freezing and I was slightly
disappointed to see what looked like left over snow. However as I sat down at
the gate, waiting for my flight to Stockholm, it began to snow!!! Flying into
Stockholm was like a movie. Beneath the clouds all I could see was trees and
land covered in snow, they looked like Christmas trees! I decided that if this
is what to expect in Uppsala, I had definitely chosen the right place. I made
it Uppsala no bother but obviously screamed newbie as the taxi driver charged
me the equivalent of £15 for a 2 minute taxi ride… #muggedoff
My first stop was the Vastgota
Nation, which I still can’t pronounce correctly. Here I picked up my welcome
pack and the keys to my room. At this point I realised that losing my earmuffs
on the way and packing my gloves in my case was verrry stupid. I was waiting
for the transport to Flogsta (my accommodation) for almost an hour. Although
this was a great time to meet people I thought my toes were going to fall off.
NOTE:- currently -7c.
P.S. I'm not sure how to change the time stamp on my posts but it is 16:10 just now so 15:10 at home J
