Sweden

This weekend we had our last tournament for the fall and we finished 5th out of 15 teams. The tournament were in Lake Geneva and we played two different courses, really different but at the same golfclub. First day we played The Highlands and all Swedes thought it was like the courses in Sweden, but we all played bad anyway. The second day we played The Brute that probably was the best course I ever played, a real championship course with big greens and big bunkers, wow! I didn't like hole 17th at The Brute though (haha). We stayed in a hotel at Grand Geneva where the courses were and we had a TV in our bathroom mirror(!!). I tell you, that was so awesome. Here is the website to the courses, you should check it out: http://www.grandgeneva.com/golf_spa_ski/golf/index.asp

I have been here in Chicago for 1½ month now and it's awesome, school is going well (A on my first test in Introductory Statistics) and I'm surrounded of really nice people here at North Park, but still I'm starting to miss home a little. Our fall semester ends 17th of December so I've almost been here half of the semester already, that's crazy! Time is going faster than ever...

Here is a picture of my hometown, Örnsköldsvik.

See you!
