I'm not surprised that it's difficult to find somewhere to take lessons on Swedish in Canada But as you're so motivated yourself and keep up with it it's good. I'm sure you've know of Astrid Lindgren's children's books. Have you read any of them? The ones I've read are brilliant

If you visit Sweden it would be so easy to come to Finland for a visit! Just take the cruise from Stockholm to Helsinki, they're great! Helsinki is a beautiful city in the summer (the only big cities I've been to are Helsinki and Copenhagen so I really wouldn't know better). I live in Joensuu which is about 500 kilometers from Helsinki to the Nort-East so it isnt' very close.
