Things I never would've believed if someone told me one year ago:
- You gonna move to Australia
- After spending 5 months in Oz, you've already tried 4 different jobs
- You're gonna be working at a potato farm in the middle of nowhere
- You're gonna buy your first car in Oz, and even drive it (even while alone in the car!)
- You're gonna work as a bartender right in the heart of Melbourne, and dance all night long
- Next Easter, you're gonna go on a spontaneous road trip to Adelaide
- Speaking English will come almost as natural and easy to you as speaking Swedish
- You're gonna ride a mechanical bull at a club in Adelaide
- You're gonna go on a camping trip with Melbourne university and try surfing

Just the beginning or a very very long list. Gets you thinking about how much you're actually capable of - compared to what you think you're capable of.

One year ago, I would've never believed I could do any of these things. But I did, and I learned to find safety within myself rather than my surroundings. And that have led me to finally take control of my own life, and stop taking the easy way out. Stop being afraid. It's such a cliche, but sometimes it takes going to the other side of the world just to find yourself.

Mom and Dad - thank you for being such awesome parents. Love you and miss you!
