First vaccine tomorrow!

I'm sure it looks worse than it is!




Yeah, I'm gonna take me first vaccine tomorrow and I'm a bit nervous! I'm gonna protect myself from all these terrible deseases like hepatite so it's really a good thing though. Afterwards I'll be proud to say that I survived an other one of lifes horrors haha. No seriously, it's not that bad, that's why I'm finishing with a happy picture:



Happy Spongebob!

Thank you Draken!!!






I had a meeting with the MD of my old high school today, Erik Drakenberg at Täbyenskilda gymnasium and he was willing to sponsor me. They're going have a link to my blog on the schools webpage and I’m gonna do some lectures about India and the project. Jeeeey, exciting!

India, here I come!

A town somewhere in India.

I’m going to India in less than two months, I start the countdown today! The 16th of January I’ll be on the plane to whatever is expecting me there. I know that I am going to do voluntary work, probably with children. I know that I am going to run a project about human rights. I know I’m going to partner with an Indian girl. We’re going to work together, run the project together and we’re going to live in an Indian family together. I hope we’ll become the best of friends.
I also know that I am going to live in Mysore, a city 3 hours from Bangalore. Apart from this I don’t know much what to expect from my time in India. Almost anything could happen and I’m sure that I’m going develop myself and grow a lot as a person - and hopefully make the world a little bit better on the way. I am really excited and happy that I have this opportunity.



A beautiful mape of India.


I go through the organization CIU, who work with cultural youth exchange. The project is party SIDA financed and party private sponsors. Today I had a meeting with the founders of Business in Heart, a company/network who supports female enterprising. They were very positive to the project since they are on their way expanding their company to India and I’m looking forward to cooperate with them. Is your company/organization interested in a collaboration? Just email me on Miranda.akermalm@hotmail.com
So, just 57 days to go now and so much to do! Next week I’m going to two network meetings for Business in Heart, a meeting with the VD of my old high school and also I’m going to be interviewed for the local news paper. Not to mention that I have exams at University on Thursday. A busy week with other words, but I’m really looking forward to everything. India, here i come!



This is a quite romantic image of India, one person on his own

about to explore the religious mystisism.
