Sheila Johannesson is a soon to be 80-year-old women who moved to Sweden 58 years ago."I moved to Sweden because I fell in love with a man. It was a though decison because I did not know any Swedish at the time and I did not know anyone Swedish than the man I was going to marry. I never took any Swedish lesson, I instead went to the park 4 hours a day and though myself the language by listening to the people around me. It was hard but I am very proud of to say that I learned the language on my own. I never regret moving here because I got two wonderful children and a bunch of grandchildren, but looking back at it can I easily say I was young and naive. I was simply blinded by love."
