Umea... rhymes with Ikea and just as interesting
This is a top pick! Here's my thinking: I'm heading North with the ultimate aim of getting to Nordcap at the top of Norway, so why not get off the tourist trail a bit and visit a smaller town where theres good countryside and activities. Good idea, I tell myself and pick a ...
MY TWO JOBS
This is a top pick! ... every morning. This earns me free housing and all the "sill" I can eat. Sill is a popular breakfast food here in Sweden. It comes in a jar. Basically, it's flimsy white cubes of herring meat, mixed in with black things that might be herring ...
SWEDES LOVE BICYCLES AND SNUS
This is a top pick! ... bit, so I simply hitchhiked Mary Poppins-style, hoisting an umbrella. Pine forests are virtually everywhere in underpopulated Sweden. I saw three mud-gray, stout-antlered moose chomping on grass during the last ride I hitchhiked. That ...
SARA LIDMAN
This is a top pick! In the Umeå city library, there's a display honoring a well-known Swedish author who died this year. The author is shown speaking at gatherings, holding up anti-weapons signs at protests, in foreign countries. She was quite old, probably in her ...
COMING AND GOING (THE LAST "HEJ DÅ")
This is a top pick! ... take the bad with the good. Unless, of course, you only take the good. Here come The Top 5 Best Things About Sweden!: 1. GENTLE AND SAFE - Most Swedes would never want to fight or hurt anyone. Most don't get road rage or swear angrily at ...
MY IRANIAN BOSS
This is a top pick! Hello, again, to everyone, from Umeå, Sweden. Hello from the apartment of Oumar. Oumar is a twenty-five-year-old smily extrovert from Senegal, Africa. He works with me, and I just began renting a room from him and two Swedish girls. Oumar ...
SURSTRÖMMING, YUK!
This is a top pick! ... a "surströmmingsfest" (surströmming party) for fourteen people. Surströmming is a traditional fish meal eaten in the north of Sweden during summertime. Surströmming is flimsy, little, gray-blue fish which are put into a can and then stored like ...
SWEDEN, ON RELIGION
This is a top pick! ... in a religion. There's a lot of pressure in the States for a person to accept faith in some God. One day in Sweden, Anders and I were taking a coffee and tea break when Anders received a visitor. The visitor was a young man with a short, neat, ...
Här i Umeå, Sverige
... nbsp;Sweden, and I do believe that trip was one of the loneliest things I have ever done - especially because when I arrived in Sweden, I was all by myself AND everyone was speaking in Swedish. Kind of refreshing though - it's easier to relax when ...
Visiting the Au Pair!
... that we were at was located next to an outdoor museum where we could see traditional dwellings of the indigenous inhabitants of northern Sweden. We had fun looking around the town, but as the sun was setting we decided to head back into town to have more ...
"Är du tjej från Texas?"
Before arriving in Sweden, I had the idea that I was somehow moving to an alien planet. Everything would be different in Sweden. Animals would talk, trees grew upside down, people would speak in a strange language that would sometimes make me giggle. ...
Dia dos mais chuvosos até agora
A historia deste dia não é nada interessante, apenas 660km de Estocolmo até Umea, 400 dos quais debaixo de chuva intensa e bastante fria. Fotos não existem e se por qualquer razão houvesse interesse de tirar uma, a maquina estaria agora ...
Dagligvaror, nya vänner och björnar - Aj min!
... it was simply just a jolly good time. August 31st I will begin my first "module," or class on International Business Environment. Here in Sweden, students only take one class at a time - classes last (on average) about 4 hours a day. Need to get to bed ...
Lluvia que empaña mis ojos ...
Hoy me he levantado pronto, como de costumbre. Por estos parajes hoy había un sol radiante. Me he puesto muy contento después de tanta lluvia. Por fin podré recorrer un ruta sin mojarme. He hecho el equipaje después de ducharme y me he largado a casa ...
der zwölfte Tag - noch etwas weiter
E.D. den eigentlichen Ort finde ich nicht in diesem System - aber egal, wir sind da in der Nähe. Zunächst mal dieses: Es tut mir leid, ich habe die Kommentare von euch bisher einfach nicht gesehen! Altes 'Profi' Problem - niemals ...
Umeå and the end of school year party!
Here are some photos of Umeå and a really cool video clip from the end of school year party. It was awesome! ...
Snart, snart...
48 timmar tills planet mot Bangkok lyfter från Wien. Det känns ändå avlägset i den mening att det är svårt att fatta att det är dags att åka så snart. Den planen som gäller är att inleda med en 5-6 dagar i Bangkok, därefter vidare i riktning ...
Umea - Vännas - Abisko (die Anreise)
erster tag, genauer gesagt erste nacht. wir sind auf dem weg zum bus um mit dem zug fahren zu können. richtig, umea, eine kleine weltstadt hat einen kümmerlichen bahnhof und die zuggesellschaft hat wohl irgendwann entschieden einfach mal die ...

I arrived in Umeå, Sweden to attend my Alma Mater Umeå Institute of Design degree show and the Design Talks. It was really great being back to see everyone there and how much the school is growing. Wow! there's a new architecture building and program, a ...
One last breath
Var mest glad att allt löst sig med visumet och att jag i alla fall fått med mig det mesta. Oväntat fräscht att stiga upp halv fyra och fila ner en bulle och en kaffe. Finns inte mycket mer att säga om Sverige som ni inte redan vet. Mamma grät ...
