Health and quality of life...

So, the course I'm doing right now is a health education course and our first "assignment" is to reflect on what health and quality of life. What does it mean to me...? Interesting and hard to put into word...and I guess that's why we're having a discussion group about it on Friday.

Yesterday we had an out-doors day scheduled and our teacher was very secretive about what we were supposed to do. I know some people (our teacher) love that "excitement" but I just get annoyed! :P Alright, we are all hoping to work with kids in the future and they looove (and need!) surprises and excitement but we're NOT kids... Oh well...turned out to be a good day! ;)

We met up at this old cabin in the woods and the surrounding nature was beautiful! First "job" was to sit down and just enjoy the morning with a "fika". Our assignment for the day was to make our lunch (soup) in the woods. We got a bag of vegetables and some basic "tools" but had build a fire and organise the whole getting water and logs for the fire and how to make the soup etc. in our small groups...

I got the fire going for our group (liked that!) and all the groups managed to produce a soup by lunch time! :) Even though we all had and air of smokiness around us by the end of it I think we all had a good time and experienced a bit of good health and quality of life... :)
