A Swedish wedding
This is a top pick! We arrived in Lund the lovely little university town of Lund, in the south of Sweden as part of the Australian contingent to the wedding of Australian born Neil and Swedish Viktoria. Lund is small and very pretty, famous for its university, and for its ...
Burnt Jackets / Mean Soup
This is a top pick! ... in the sun, drinking wine and then set up a fire before cooking a mean vege soup and some severely burnt jacket potatoes. Sweden has been pretty fantastic in terms of accommodation as we have not had to pay for a nights accommodation since leaving Prague ...
Whistful Bridges.
... so damn windy! The bridge cross was interesting in that regard. But luckily we didn’t have to go for a swim. Coming into Sweden things began to cheer up and we first noticed how spread out everything was. Practically all of the houses are this rusty ...
En toch ook studeren
Hoewel mijn vorige post verwees naar alle leuke feestjes hier, is de tijd van studeren nu toch ook wel aangebroken. Ik heb besloten te stoppen met het vak over de Vikingen aangezien het niet echt uitdagend was en nu doe ik een ander vak bij dezelfde ...
Lund, Sweden
... to Maria's apartment where she prepared a fantastic meal and then we dozed off fairly early...what a wonderful day! Sunday July 3, 1005 Lund, Sweden to Copenhagen, Denmark to Berlin, Germany Maria and I woke up a bit past 8:30a.m. Of course I ...
Lund and Ystad
Today I went by myself to Ystad, Sweden down on the coast of lower Sweden. It was a nice town full of beautiful yachts and big ships. There was some nice views of the water and I wandered a bit around the old part of town but there really wasnt much to ...
Creepy Fake Town
This place was all built, hum, I forget exactly when, but in my lifetime I think, but in the style of a really old town, which makes it feel weird and fake. They even intentionally rubbed some paint off to make it look old. ...
Day one at Luftsfartverket
I was very kindly picked up from the Hotel, by a very apologetic Swede, who was embarrassed by the terrible weather that I was seeing. I thought that it was always like this, but didn't dare say a word. We rode out to the airport. I was hoping for a view ...
Nightlife thus far
... parties where we go to their corridors, as mentioned above. This past weekend we went to Malmo which is the 3rd largest city in Sweden (gasp in awe) and just a few minutes away. One of our mentors recently moved there so we went to her apartment and ...
About life in Lund Sweden
Lund Sweden, my temporary new home. It's a home filled with blondes who through some genetic phenomenon are too attractive, too physically fit, and are too fashionable. I've been here for a few weeks and have settled in nicely. I am living in a ...
La La Lund
... , eating and drinking. The program sounds incredible and it led me to do some research into Master’s programs in Sweden. The culture of sustainability over here is just so much stronger. It would be pretty incredible to study this ...
Who knew anywhere could rain as much as the NW
... . I hope another week has treated you all superbly well. On my end its been another rain filled week here in the south of Sweden. But a little rain won't keep us from havin' fun. It was a good week but seemed a little slower pace then usual like everyone ...
Rachael's Home Town
... apartment but we didn't explore until sunday (started very early cause daylight savings stopped and no one told us!). lund is a little university town in the south of sweden, the uni's about 400 years old so the town is very cute! we walked out to the ...
De eerste dagen
... gisteren dacht ik dat vandaag wel rustiger zou worden. We hadden een information meeting & market ergens aan de buitenkant van Lund waar de technische faculteiten zitten. Dus we vertrokken 10 minuten van te voren te voet maar kwamen meer dan een uur ...
Another week under the belt
... it was a good way to spend a weekday night. The ride home in the pouring rain was not as good though. Since southern Sweden is really flat and with the high winds the weather changes faster than a schizophrenics personality when they are off their ...
Lund
A sleepy, laid-back, unversity town with medieval roots. Streets in the centre were largely pedestrianised and cobbled. It felt open and friendly despite a lack of suitable parking. There were many multi-storey parking "houses" but Tallulah was too tall ...
Partyyy
... maar 6 uur per week college heb. Ik ben daarom lid geworden van de "Association of Foreign Affairs" hier in Lund. Hier worden wekelijks heel interessante lezingen georganiseerd (onder andere Zweedse ministers, Kofi Annan, Tariq Ali als sprekers, ...
walking in a winter wonderland
... high school friend), and 8 of his international classmates went with me for a little day trip into a city called Lund. Lund is one of the oldest cities in Sweden so it was a perfect day trip to stroll around and see their huge 1000 year old cathedral and ...
How Much Did You Pay for College?
... cost of education back home. Amazing. We also walked through a church that was on campus, which is interesting since Sweden in general is a very secular country. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the church has been there ...
Snart resklar
Då är väskan packad och klar, fick inte riktigt plats i den första ryggsäcken som jag hittade så bytade upp mig till en landslagsrygga istället, hehe :) om en halvtimme åker jag till Sturup och därefter lyfter planet 13.45... ...
oficially Scandinavia
Sweden, Lund C there is 20 degrees outside; we left Kopenhavn with its Danemark an hour ago. which was pretty okay with me; after all, the main station wasn't something i really like. it was wooden station, but that's all there was to it. oh, and it was ...
Imorrn bär det av
Har smygstartat resan en aning genom att under dagen ha tagit mig från Växjö till Staffanstorp. Kollade MFF - AIK med pappa (4-0 till Malmö) och har i övrigt helt enkelt bara umgåtts med förräldrarna, mysigt! Är lite trött efter en vecka ...
Snart på väg
Nu är dagen snart här då jag sticker iväg på den stora resan, host host. Tre månader ensam på luffen. Det är väl en poäng i sig det här med ensamresandet. Att inte behöva bry sig om någon annan och göra precis vad fan jag känner för. Men ...
family dinner
... have taken pictures by now, I know, but it just hasn't happened yet. I will try to take some tomorrow. I like Lund alot so far, the weather reminds me of Portland during the rainy season, but more breezy and humid. The people are nice ...
Ikea Here We Come
... much of the space in her luggage was taken over with bulky winter clothes. We had rainy weather pretty much the entire time in Lund, which will also take some getting used to for Abby. In California we are amazed if we get any rain between May and ...
Housewives in the making :)
... will be getting our student ID numbers which will be required by the banks before allowing us to set up a bank account here in Sweden. After settling our bank draft issue (sort of), we proceeded to the IHO ppl and told them about the faulty bedroom and ...
Lund, One Last Time
... the centre of town and bought a bag of lollies from one of Lund's awesome pick’n’mix stores (very popular places in Sweden since Swedes eat sweets like there’s not tomorrow) and took our bag of lollies to Ariman’s (a eclectic local ...
Finally in Lund, Sweden
... in Copenhagen we rented a car and picked up Abby's large suitcase that we had stored at our hotel there. From to Copenhagen to Lund, Sweden is less than 45 minutes over their very new and smooth bridge. We dropped her off because she needed to go through ...
