A little about my trip to America

I have now spent a month in America and it has been a really great trip! As you know, I love America/americans deeply and want to be based here in the future. I'm excited to go back to Sweden now though so that I can start working and preparing for the coming school year - I just wish I could do all that here!
Trips here are so great because it reminds me of the love I have for the country and spending time with my friends over here really blesses me in so many ways and God uses that to recharge me for "another swedish winter".
I'm also really excited about going back to healthy eating! I have no one else to blame but myself for eating worse while I'm here but whatever, I'm on vacation right? But it's good because it gives me so much new motivation to continue working out, eating good and to learn more about nutrition and physiology etc.

I haven't taken a lot of pictures, partly because I always forget and partly because my camera is not good.

First I went to Whitley in Oklahoma and got to spend a few nights in their old house before they moved in to a really beautiful french-inspired house. Me and Whitley went to Tulsa a few times, worked out - a lot, ate lots of salads and had a great time! Our friend Jake drove all the way from Colorado to visit us the weekend they moved so that was perfect! It was a lot of fun to see where she lives as she has been living in our house this past year.
I went to Dallas two weeks later and spend two weeks at the Elkins - the family that I've been staying with both times I've been here before. The mom is very pregnant and she is giving birth tomorrow - so unfortunally I will miss it. It was so much fun to spend time with them again and I'm really excited to see their new baby next time I visit :) And now I have spend the last days with one of my very good friends in Denton, TX which has also been so good!


4th of July in Denton, TX


Last frozen yoghurt for this time!
I think the most fun thing this month was when we went to a rodeo. That was crazy.. At one point, they had kids (I'm guessing 4 year olds) hanging on to sheep until they fell off like on bullriding. I'll post pictures of that later.

I have so many health links I want to post so that will be coming very soon!!
