where in the world?

Do you ever have trouble picturing yourself in a specific spot on the globe? I remember feeling that way when I went to the States for 8th grade. Sure, I could tell you I was in the States, but if I looked at a globe and pointed to Minnesota and said "this is where I am right now," it just didn't feel right. When I went back to the Philippines after 8th grade, I could look at a map and say "that's where I am, those islands in the Pacific" and it felt right. I think that strange "no, I can't be there" feeling is about where I'm at right now in Sweden. It doesn't feel real that I could possibly be here, in Europe, in Sweden, after so many years of dreaming about it.
