My daughter is ready to go to Sweden on Overseas Student Exchange soon. I will feel the emptiness around the house and miss her a lot.

Ironically I encouraged her to go. It is a great opportunity for her to see the world and become really independent living away from home. How exciting! It’s “Hello Mummy, I’m calling from Sweden.”

I should join her at the end of her six month program. She can show me around in Sweden and tour Europe together. I just got to wait for my turn to make travel arrangements. Shop around for airtickets, lodging and find out what I can do with bed and breakfast gift certificate, should we chose to holiday in US instead.
