Natalia

Natalia, my great-grandmother´s name and now the name of a very dear friend.

We met her in a FIKA organized by Max.

On the way home we found out that we live in the exact same building, separated by the distance of three doors.

Since then, she has been our company for FIKAS that extended along the night, big feasts (even when we have nothing to offer) and long-lasting times of laundry.

Natalia has the loveliest shrill and the loudest laugh! She makes every other person smile!

Natalie is patient. Always helps me with the Swedish.

She loves the sun and the water.  She cares about the flowers and the animals.

Sometimes she gets sad.  Sometimes she misses home.

Natalia fears the war. And calls for peace.

We were blessed when we found you in Swedish lands. Thank you for everything.

Meet you soon, in Sweden, in Portugal, in Poland…or in every other part of the world.
