Stockholm |
This past week our international advisor arranged a student
trip. After a scenic 7½ hour bus ride we finally reached our first
destination—Stockholm. Stockholm was a refreshing taste of city life, with a
nice mix of restaurants, shopping, scenery and history. I personally could have
spent at least a week more there, but two days was enough to break my bank
account. The highlights of Stockholm had to be experiencing hustling and
bustling Swedish city life and upgrading from McDonalds to eating a true
American meal at TGIF, mmm tasty.

The third day we hopped aboard the cruise ship Baltic Queen
to Tallinn, Estonia with around 800 other exchange students from the Scandinavian
area. We met students from New York, Pennsylvania, Nebraska, and even UND! (only
after chasing him down three flights of stairs because he was wearing a
University of North Dakota shirt...small world.) We docked and toured Estonia
and danced one more night away on the cruise ship before our return home. Sleep
deprived and hundreds of pictures later, I can say these are the “aha” moments
that make me realize studying abroad was the best choice I ever made. —xoko
