  • One Final Word

    August 9, 2019 by

    It has been over a month since I have returned to the United States and while it might seem like a long time to finally write a reflection of the overall trip, I believe that what I currently remember is what I will continue to look back on when I think about Sweden, and what… Read more

  • Tales From Gothenburg

    July 4, 2019 by

    My final day in Sweden was spent in one of the larger cities called Gothenburg and the reason I went to this city was…well my flight was there the next morning and it was either get a hotel in the city or camp out at the train station.

  • The Aftermath

    July 2, 2019 by

    After the final, the next day was rather calming. We all still had to go to the school one last time to have an outro and to accept our certificates of completion.

That being said, there are… Read more

  • Tales From Denmark

    June 25, 2019 by

    Ever since my trip I have been trying to find a good time to catch up on the blog posts and I have come to the conclusion that no time will be a good time. Of the 30 hours I was in Copenhagen, I left little unseen and created a great experience that I will… Read more

  • The Midsummer Festival

    June 24, 2019 by

    Last Friday was the Swedish Midsummer Festival and it was literally the longest day of the year. The Swedish Midsummer Festival was created when everyone in Sweden realized that since they weren’t going to get any sleep anyway, why not throw a party? How that turned into dancing around a maypole and eating herring is… Read more
