Also, Roy makes things out of wood. Really cool things. And I've noticed that everybody has a wooden Swedish flag in their house, and I asked Fredrik about it and apparently Roy makes them! So I told Fredrik to tell Roy I want one! He didn't have one on hand so he gave me a homemade butter knife instead. Here in Sweden, you eat butter with EVERY meal.

I don't think I'll be using it, but I will always have it as another amazing memory I have from my time here.
