Musings on September

So it has been a couple of weeks... ok almost 3 since I have written. Life has been busy, but finally feels like it is settling in to some kind of rhythm... post scavenger hunts and special classes about photography and creativity.  We go regularly to our partner school YBC and they welcomed our students with a beautiful ceremony.

Their students have been buddied up and together they completed a video mashup this week exploring the similarities and differences between Sweden and where our students come from. It was a very cool thing to watch. 

I have found that we have many adventures over food. Everything from me cooking for 25... a well received wok dish courtesy of Kami Lewis Levin from one of her Girl Talk posts. One of mine was with chicken and one shrimp and tofu. 

To advisory dinners, to kids helping to prep to use getting use of a fabulous kitchen once a week to cook beautiful healthy meals. I mean look at the ingredients we picked from the fields for last weeks dinner.

We have also done some great other activities over the last few weeks... swimming, fencing, some early morning yoga taught by yours truly and so much more. We had some guest speakers as well as classes in museums and even one outside in a beautiful churchyard. TGS means the "classroom" is everywhere and can be at any time.  The days can be long, but they are rewarding. Stockholm is a beautiful place even with the cold and variable weather though we have had a beautiful stretch of sunny days in the past week.

I will try and be better to share my journey and adventures more often. I know by waiting so long, I miss many details and fun bits so I will try to post more often.
