These are the countrys I have been to :

Australia

When I was about 9 month old my family and me moved to Bahrain. Bahrain is a small island in the Persian Gulf, the size is approximately a quarter of the Swedish island of Gotland. We stayed there for four years. My brother Mikael is born in Bahrain. During the time in Bahrain we had a nanny who looked after me and I had to learn English to talk to her. After four years we moved back to Sweden but nine-month later it was time to pack for another trip abroad.

My family, Mum, Dad, Mikael and me, moved to Melbourne, the capital of the state of Victoria in the southeastern part of Australia.

We arrived in Australia in December and in January, just before my fifth birthday, I started in grade one at Brighton Primary school. I remembered most of the English I had learned in Bahrain and had no problem to keep up with the rest of the Aussies. I got many friends in Melbourne, unfortunately I have lost contact with all of them by now.

We stayed in Australia for three years. My sister Kristine was born there. While living down under we took the opportunity to explore Australia.

We traveled around and looked at the interesting places and great gifts of nature. We did visite Sydney, a state in Australia.We visited Ayers rock (Uluru), a huge rock in the middle of the Australian outback desert. It was so many flies there so it was impossible to be outside during daytime without a special net over my head. We also visited the Great Barrier Reef where I dived and saw lots of beautiful fishes. At the south east coast, between Melbourne and Adelaide, there are beautiful Rock formations which I like very much. I tried my luck with the gold pan at Sovereign Hill, an old gold diggers town. Of course I also met the typical Australian animals, Kangaroo, Wombat, Koala, Pelican, Emu….

We also traveled to some of the exotic countries around Australia : Fiji, Singapore, Hongkong .……

In 1993 we moved back to Sweden again and settled down in Sollentuna. I started school here at Rösjöskolan. That was almost six years ago.

My Trip to Hollywood

When I was living i Australia,

My familey and me travled to Sweden for our summer holidays. While on our annual trip in 1991 we decided to stop for a couple of days in America.

We started our trip in Melbourn and flew via New Zeeland and Hawai to the first stop in Los Angeles. Los Angeles is one of the biggest cities in America. It is situated on the US west coast in the state of California. We stayed at the Biltmore hotel in down town L.A . We had planed to visite Disneyland, Universal Studio and Hollywood. We had a marvelous time and the days paste very quickly.

Disneyland was a fantastik adventure of real and unreal atractions from the cartoon world.

At Universal Studio we were taken behind the scene of hitech movie making. We saw the huge model of King Kong, used in the real movie.

Before we contineud our trip we visited Hollywood on a bus tour through the area where all the fameous actors live. After all the fun we took a flight to New York where we changed aircraft for the final leg of our journy. After a few weeks of swedish summer we returned to the winter in Australia after a short stop in Singapore.
