About me

Hello, my name is Emelie Johansson, I am 24 years old and from Sweden.
I am here as an exchange student and will stay here for one semester.


I have been studying two years on my home University in Sweden, and have one more year until I get my bachelor's degree in finance. I think I will go further and study one or two more years after that and get a master's degree in finance. 


In the future, when I finish the school, I would like to work international. That is why I went to United States. I need to learn better English, it is fun but difficult! With that said, please have patience with my English!


When I first started University I was sure that I would like to work with marketing when I graduate. My father is a successful businessman and works at on of the biggest banks in Sweden as an internal auditor and when I was a little child I always said that I would never walk in my fathers footstep. And here I am, studying finance and works on a bank. Life never gets as you expected.


Back home in Sweden I live together with my boyfriend Mikael. We have been together for five years now. 


What I miss most from Sweden is of course my boyfriend, family and friend. But I also miss the Swedish food! 


The food culture is very different. Here in the United States you got a lot of different restaurants on campus. In Sweden we got one, with healthy food. But most students bring their own lunch.
America are fascinating in many ways but the food is… not my favorite!


So far I really love Florida. I been in the States three times before and I have to say I love the people here. Everyone is so friendly and open-minded. 


The weather is also much better than home. Soon it starts to get cold in Sweden, in November the snow is falling and you need to wear a lot of clothes when you get out. I do not miss that part!


I hope you got to know me a little better, but if you have questions, feel free to ask!
