Hur allt började - How everything began

I think we all have a special place we want to know everything about, to which we want to run away in every day-off we have,  and we dream about it every day, hoping to return one day. I thought that some people may share the same place with me,  so I decided to create this blog and show you my special spot: Sweden.

About a year ago, I spent my Christmas holidays in a place near Kungsbacka, in the south-west of Sweden.  Before going there,  I spent all the time searching information or photos to know a little bit about that place, and to have some idea of what I was going to find when I get there. But, my surprise was that nothing of what I saw in the photos was similar to what I was seeing from the plane as it got closer to the airport of Gothenburg. Everything was different and beautiful at the same time. When I got off the plane, I fell totally in love with the small and reddish airport of Gothenburg. Call me crazy, but as soon as I saw the cloudy sky, the small remains of snow, the little red houses with its Christmas lights, I fell in love, and I knew that that would be my special place and the one I've been looking for.

As long as I can remember,  I think, I've always had a dream of a perfect holiday, and these were in an isolated place and full of snow, in a small wooden house, by the warmth of a chimney. When I arrived in Sweden, I remembered it and I realized that, probably, I was meant to arrive there and to discover Sweden, and, one day, I will be able to make this little dream come true. I have another dream now, together with this one, and it is living in Sweden.  I know that one day I will achieve it, and I don't mind how long it will take me, but I will.

When I came back home, I started to study Swedish. Well, to be accurate I started the previous summer, but, after the trip, I did it with more intensity and motivation. I also began to look for blogs of people who share this same place. It is through them, through their pictures, how I will show you the charm of this place and what makes us fall in love with it.

What about your favorite place? Which one is it?
