The Kulturan.

These are continued from my day 5 & 6 from my visit to the Kulturan museum here in Lund...

interiors and exteriors of Swedish farm houses from the 1800s...

a peek inside...

A printing press house...

letter and symbols...

An old wealthy professors house with perfectly intact interiors too you can just walk around in and there no one else in there and its kind of creepy...

Kulturan BOOM!

Sweden Day 3 & 4

Enjoying my time with my Cassie snuggling and laughing all over Sweden! Yesterday we had lunch together with her work friends and then I took myself to a super cute coffee shop where you make your own tea (they have different loose leaf jars and holders out!) and then sit with the provided blankets watching the snow fall outside. It was pretty damn picturesque if I do say so myself! I sat and worked there for a few hours and then ventured back home while popping into different shops along the way due to face numbness from the cold.

Today I just stayed home because the high today was a mere 23 (yeah, I know. cold) but once Cassie was home we went shopping with her boyfriend and then got pizza for dinner. Now we're back home snuggling and catching up with Glee.

Best vacation EVER!!!

From Sweden with love.

Sweden: Day 2

Today I just slept in and then Cassie met me for a DELICIOUS lunch of vegetarian soy meat hot dogs, mashed potatoes, a salad bar, and fresh bread. Swedish food is schooling Slovak food like whoa. Then she had to go back to work so I took myself for an adventure to exchange my money, shop till I drop, and then all the way back home. Its cold and after all that walking I am ready for a nap before we go to Malmo tonight for a vegetarian dinner. I am LOVING being around all these vegetarians with food options besides pasta with stupid cream sauce.

Lund is so precious. It kind of reminds me of Madison, Wisconsin in that all thats really here is the university, so its all college folk (My people!) in this old city where you can walk everywhere, cafes, pubs, and good shopping abound, and too many cool kids to count. Kind of loving it here in Sweden!

Some pretty images of the lovely old architecture from today, most of them are of her school...

And some awesome shopping here too. Swedes KNOW cool design that make my heart soar!

Hey Sweden!

Today has been lovely so far. A semi lazy Sunday in Sweden with my sissy Cassie. We slept in and watched Glee on her computer in bed, then walked around the city to see a church built in 1100 (crazy old), stopped and had a long yummy lunch in a cute cafe where they gave you hot water and then you got to make your own loose leaf tea at a little table, got some sweets, and are now snuggled back at home watching bad TV and loving life!!!

Best vacation EVER.

Walking through the park...

Bundled!

So hot right now. Then theres the mittens. 

Cute Swedish streets.

I LOVED this little house.

With its blue door.

Super cool bug clock inside the church

 Crazy cool clock

Being RIDICULOUS in front of the pretty church from 1100
