Source text - English Born and raised on the mountainside of Sweden, I did not come to the United States until the age of 14. Growing up, I enjoyed cycling everywhere on the mountains (no cars were allowed), but that only lasted for half the year as we were snowed in during the other half of the year; from October through early April. I was an only-child growing up, so my parents would either make sure that I had the most up-to-date bicycle, or snowsled. I always dreamed of spending the rest of my life up in the mountains, pursuing a career in either farming or construction. Sadly, at the age of 10, we moved from the mountains to the city of Stockholm (the capital of Sweden), which was mainly due to the tedious commute my father would go through. This was a devastating moment for me, yet thrilling for my parents.
Translation - Swedish Född och uppvuxen på Sveriges bergssida och flyttade till USA efter 14 års ålder. Under min uppväxt så gillade jag att cykla överallt i bergskedjorna (inga bilar var tillåtna), men det gällde bara halva året eftersom det snöade under andra delen av året; från Oktober tills April. Jag var det enda barnet genom min uppväxt, so mina föräldrar såg antingen till att jag hade den senaste cykeln, eller senaste pulkan. Jag drömde alltid att spendera resten av mitt liv uppe i bergen och att jobba med yrken inom jordbruk eller konstruktion. Tyvärr, när jag var 10 år gammal, så flyttade vi från bergen till Stockholm City. Det skedde eftersom min pappa hade en sådan lång körning till jobbet. Det var fruktansvärt för mig, men sagolikt för mina föräldrar.
