Sorry for taking so long but finally I will begin my blogging.
The first thing to point out is that Sweden is cold. Much much colder than any weather chart prepared me. Ever since I got here there hasn't been a day over 0 degrees and on my trip to Copenhagen it was about -17 degrees by the water. However it still quite fun walking around in Lund where shoveling sidewalks or salting streets is non existent.
I'll begin where I am currently on exchange, Lund. It's a small university town that is packed to the brim with bars and fallafel places. As far as I know there are only 2 McDonald's and 1 Burger King but there are about 30000000000 fallafel places all open till hungry drunk hours. So needless to say I am sick of them. A unique but great feature of Lund is that public is drinking is allowed, thus leading to good times. Especially since your beer always stays cold as you wander.
Anyways enough writing, PICTURES:
Second largest Ikea in the world. Ikea is Sweden's unofficial supplier of everything. The first thing I saw as I was entering Sweden was Ikea.
Like I mentioned above, this place is COLD.
One of the greatest things about Lund is it's proximity to Copenhagen and Malmo. Above are pictures from Malmo, one of the greenest cities in the world. It's not terribly exciting but it was a nice day trip.
Lastly these are some photos from Copenhagen. It is one of the nicest cities I have been to, of course it is possibly the most expensive. To put it into perspective, their mixed sushi plate of about 10 pieces of sushi on sale in the airport cafe came out to about $20 something Canadian. Even Tojo's doesn't charge that much and he's widely considered the top sushi chef in the world.More posts to come on life at Lund and my Barcelona trip.
