Driving: It took some time to get used to driving in the left side instead of the right but now it's all good. and well to be honest I've now driven a lot more in the left side than the right so I think it will be a lot harder to go back to driving in the right when I go back home...
The Family: The family I work for/live with(I'm here as an aupair) is so great! They have two children age 6(boy) and 8(girl) and we get along so well. I love spending time with them and they always make me smile. They love reading, playing music, dancing, being creative and so do I. We are a good fit and they have been so welcoming and I truly feel as a part of their family.
Future Archaeologist: I have been incredibly lucky to get volunteer work at the Cambridge Archaeological Unit in their Finds Office where I will get to clean all the things they find. I haven't started yet but will this coming week. It's safe to say that I'm VERY EXCITED!
Cambridge: Is so beautiful! It has a ton of amazing old buildings and lots of awesome museums. The city is all about learning = I feel right at home.
The people: People here are very polite and their accent just makes everything they say sound smart. I was sort of hoping I'd manage to get a bit of an English accent but I'm not so sure that will happen. One of the children has told me that I haven't learned English, I've learned American! When I try to talk with an English accent it just sounds like I'm trying too hard, ha! We'll see I am after all going to be here for another 5 months.
I've met so many amazing people here and I feel very blessed. I have also already had to say goodbye to some of the people I've met here which was surprisingly hard considering the short time I've been here(I'm talking about you Sister Su - I miss you!).
Church: (That would be The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints). Church is great! From the first Sunday I went there I felt so welcome and just that feeling of being somewhere you belong. It's also the place where I've met most of the people I know here. With weekly things such as Institute and FHE(family home evening) it forces me to get out of the house and gives me an opportunity to talk to people my age and not just a 6-year old and a 8-year old.
The food: Is mostly like in Denmark but I have discovered some new things such as Lemon Curd, which is delicious, and baked beans in tomato sauce.... I have also found out that they don't have fresh yeast here so I've now learned to bake with the dry kind.
Am I a grown up? I feel like one. At least most days. I think it has something to do with all the responsibilities I now have for someone else. Although, the 6-year old has told me that I'm not a grown up until I'm 22. so hey I guess I still have some time.
To sum up: I LOVE IT! I've had many wonderful experiences here so far and have grown so much(you know not in height but as a person...). And I already know that it will be incredibly hard to leave - so hey let's not think about that for another 5 months.
