One of the things that I miss the most about Sweden, is when I met people that I know (and when we say goodbye), we hug. Somehow, it is a kind of gesture that is very sweet and comforting.
Another one is, no matter the time, we’ll say to each other: “Have a nice day!”
I think it gives a boost of energy to keep up with my day/night, even though it could be harsh.
Sadly, I don’t get that a lot here. Like super rarely.
I should just start to say it to myself, every morning (or noon) when I wake up.
Still missing some people to hug, though.
Happy New Year to you!
