Arriving in Sweden was a whirlwind of planes, layovers, delays, flight transfers, and a whole lot of steps walking around airports and exploring the city of Stockholm. Throughout the day on June 1 students arrived in the Stockholm airport, ARN, and then boarded the Arlanda express, a high-speed train to get to our hotel. There are many sights to see all over the city from the cobbled streets to boats docked on the many canals crisscrossing the archipelago. Along every street and in every Resturang conversations in all different languages can be heard. There are so many new sights, sounds, and experiences to be had it is difficult to feel tired, even after the long hours and very little sleep. Even though we’ve had just a taste of the new city so far the food has been exciting and delicious. Pictured above is the underground of the T-Centralen. We are so excited to continue exploring the city and leaning more about the culture and environment around us.
