A lifetime of friendship

I just found an old group chat on my phone with my friends back in Sweden. Last time we used this friendship group chat was back in 2017 or something so I did not have much hope. But it worked, I got connection hahaha. Well at least with 2 of them – Suzie and Peppi. So happy right now!
We were sending pictures from last year this time when we all (well almost all of us)flew to south of Sweden to visit Åsa who lives there.

I have to say, my friends are really shit at planning anything together, especially trips. So this was a big deal! It took my friends 7 years (!!!) to come visit me when I lived in Barcelona. Crazy.

Anyway, only a few sentences were exchanged, but that was enough. My whole chest got warm of happiness. Crazy how that you don’t realize how much you miss and value your friends and this lifetime of friendship,  and then 2 sentences later, it all just flushes over you. Kind of overwhelming almost.

And then I texted my cousins in Sweden, my sisters in Barcelona and my mum…. and now I am like screaming at poor Ambrose that I am all alone in this stupid far away country and that we need to fly back to Europe ASAP so I get to enjoy this lifetime of friendship I built !
I miss you all terribly. Ambrose always tells me I am so dramatic and I can see now why he thinks that. 🙂

Lets go back to that trip with some pictures.
I cannot even begin to explain how much we have laughed over this ugly picture! Suzy who looks like she lost her legs, Michaela who looks exactly  (not a compliment btw) like Michael Jackson here. Myself who clearly failed in jumping all together. ONLY Åsa looks okay here.So bad!

Carro and her 2 beautiful kids. So lucky we matched visiting Stockholm at the same dates. That almost never happens! Carro lives in The Canary Islands.
