Yummy yummy in my tummy!
And for those of you who don't know what a "semla" is, here's a definition:
Semlor are big buns, divided into two and filled with whipped cream and almond paste. Many people like to eat them in a bowl of hot milk, which is the traditional way, while others prefer to eat them as they are. (More)
Aren't they mouth-watering? (Dad, Maria, Stefan; jealous? ;D )

SCHOOLio.
School is so cool.
Everybody has been so nice to us; they've been helping us get to classes, showing us around, introducing us to new people. Seriously, we love school.. so far, so good! We've been looking through some old pictures from Dubai 2008, and we found this picture of a gazelle taken in Al Ain at a zoo there. Isn't it beautiful?

Time to go, buffalo!
Survivors
Yiiiiiippppeeeee! We survived our first day in a Swedish school! It was not just a little different from our old school, DAA.. it was very different. The way the students acted towards the teachers, the classes, the way we dressed. A lot of things we're going to have to adapt to. We'll compare and contrast our Swedish school and our American school in Dubai later. Now that should be pretty interesting!
Time for the Christmas decorations to go down :( Are all your Christmas decorations gone yet or are you keeping them for a little longer?
See you soon, raccoon
Tomorrow is THE Day.
Whats the most embarassing thing that has ever happened to you at school?
Our old school, Dubai American Academy. Lets see what our next schools look like? :)
Toodle-ee-oo, kangaroo!
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
-21°C is a bit too cold... Thats how cold it was this morning. F-R-E-E-Z-I-N-G. Hopefully the weather will get a bit better soon. Today we took a walk with our adorable little cousin. Seriously, a sunny winters day, the snow glistening under the sun, it couldn't be more perfect. It was like walking in a winter wonderland. Love.
Since theres so much snow right now, we went sledding. Haha, we never knew it could be so much fun! The speed.. Whew! We could barely stop. Almost scary. Almost.
Beautiful! A winter wonderland. Don't you agree?
Give a hug, ladybug.
In A While, Crocodile!

Wish us luck. The answers to the questions you all asked will be put up when we get home!
Later alligator!

The cutest thing alive?
Yo, sup dawgs?
Here is the picture of Chico we promised. We're gonna try to put up a picture of him in his cool winter jacket tomorrow. Also, tomorrow the answers to the "frågestund" (the questions you asked) will be up! So be on the look-out for them! Later love XXX

New Year, New Blog!
Hey everybody!
Welcome to our blog! This blog is going to follow us, 2 Swedish sisters, on our journey from having lived in Dubai for 11 years, and now moving back to Sweden. We are 12 and 14 years old and have a great passion for photography and fashion. Hopefully, there will be some interesting photos in most of our posts. We are also going to try to describe about our life in Dubai and about our new life in Sweden. Maybe some comparing and contrasting? Comparing fashion, school, and everything relating to a teenager’s life. Happy New Year and we hope that you will follow us on our journey from the always-as-sunny Dubai to the 4-seasons Sweden! Love XXX
