Sweden Four - Transcription

TRANSCRIPTION OF UNSCRIPTED SPEECH

So.  I was born in [?] in Jämtland [?] in northwestern Sweden.  I was raised in the village of Vapland[?] in Nälden [?], thirty kilometers northwest of Östersund [?].  They are together about one thousand five hundred inhabita…. inhabita….  inhabitants.  Uh, we have cool summers and cool winters, uh, dark winters.  So there's not much to do here in the winters except watching American movies and TV, so I guess, yeah, that's about it.
