Good news! Today I successfully made it to dance class and back without missing a bus or anything! I am really proud, because the last time I tried to go to dance, it didn't end well… Check out my “A Hard Lesson,” if you are curious about that :). Dance was fun and challenging, hopefully I will start making friends in that class soon. Another thing that happened was I finally went to the famous bakery in Kaukalahti that everyone talks about. I went with Mori and Viola after school ended at 4. I had tea and more pastries than I wish to admit, because I wanted to try them all! My favorite was a blueberry-toffee pastry that was delicious.
In other news, I am loving my host family, and I can’t wait to get to know them even more as my year here progresses.
