Some days can be really depressing in Sweden. You wait so long for the warmer days to come and when they finally do they are tarnished by the endless rain. I shouldn't make it sound that bad. If there is one thing I have learnt about living here is not to let the weather stop you from going out. The beautiful aspect about the rain is that when it has finally stopped everything is so green and alive. You feel like running and smiling at everyone you pass and I think this is a contagious feeling cause you really do see the difference in Swede once spring comes around. The girls are back to walking around in their tiny shorts or just t-shirts like they were meant to e worn as dresses, hordes of people sit in the parks or along the rivers and soak up the sun.
They really know how to celebrate the winter here, it almost makes me feel like we are zombies that have been given a brief moment to live again and we have to make the most out of every single day.
Swedish Hippies Spreading the Love, I was a bit shocked they got permission to stop traffic for this but I guess everybody needs summer love.

If you really want something in life you should go get it even if nobody believes in you.
