Hello from Gamla Stan, Old Town Stockholm. We arrived Friday night and have been getting ready for the students. We’re so excited to see them in person after learning about them the last four weeks during our online classes.
Something we are each excited for the students to see in Stockholm is:
Molly: Skansen’s Sustainable Walk Through Swedish History, a horticultural tour of historic gardening, forests, and ecology.
Tara: Historiska Museet – The Swedish History Museum, where we will see ancient rock carvings of Swedish people and trees (2000 years old).
Lisa: This iconic square, Stortorget, in Gamla Stan, filled with colorful historic buildings, friendly people, and delicious food. Students can grab a cup of hot chocolate at the famous Chokladkoppen, or enjoy panna cotta at Stortorgskälleren (the best I’ve ever had1)
We’re so excited to have everyone here together to begin this adventure.
