I stayed with these guys for the week: L-R: Ineka, Ingemar, Sofia, Malin, Staffan, and I. We had a short lived ban on English in the cottage, but nonetheless I think my Swedish improved a lot, even if a lot of the advances came in the swearing department thanks to Malin... She may look like butter wouldn't melt in her mouth, but she swears like a trooper.
However, 4 months back in Australia should well and truly cure me of what little ability I have to hold a conversation.
