Welcome to our blogg.

We thought this would be a nice way to keep our friends and family updated about what we are up to! And for us to have some kind of diary, to save for the future when we move back home to Sweden. We choose to write in English so all our friend could read it=) (and it's also good practice for me)

About us

Dubai
We are a family of four, and one dog and six guinea pigs (and one cat that lives in Blentarp, Sweden) We moved to Dubai a year ago, Henrik is working here and Ingela is a housewife and both children are in school. Victoria is 7 years old and Cornelia is 5 years old. They are in grade 1 and 2. When they started school here, Victoria just started school in Sweden and didn't speak any English and Cornelia where still in kindergarten in Sweden and didn't speak any English either. Now a year later they speak English and writes and read English as well. They also learn Arabic in school. After some difficulties it seams like they enjoy school and our life here, and that feels very good. If they like it here it's easier for us to also relax and enjoy our stay here in Dubai. And now we have one more member of our family, a streetcat named Stripy, Findus, Nisse, Tiger and Findus=), and also one more guinea pig has died, so 5 guinea pigs left.

Nimlins visiting.


Yesterday I left family Nimlin on the airport, and we miss them a lot already. We spent the whole day at The Lakes club swimming and relaxing, all of us but Henrik, who still can`t walk. And in the evening me and Jessica, Mathias and Clara went to Dubai mall, to watch the fountain's and eat. We ate at Scoozi right beside the Fountain's, and as always our guests loved the Fountain's as much as I do.


During those ten days we have had guests we have done a lot, we have been swimming in the pool and in the sea, we have been shopping and Jessica and Mathias also went to Burj al Arab for a drink and some food.


Last Friday we celebrated Easter and we went to Ras al Khaimah, we had seen some lovely pictures from the marina there and thought that would be a nice place. But it was al under construction and we ended up at the http://www.alhamrafort.com/ , I don`t know about the other restaurant there but the one we eat at was a disaster. But we will for sure remember this Easter dinner.


And Mathias and Jessica also got the opportunity to visit the American hospital. Mathias was out running one evening and twisted his foot. And the morning after he fainted when he got to the breakfast table, so then we took him to the hospital. And he got a pair of crutches! So after that Villa 33 in Springs 1 Street 1 appeared to be a hospital=).
