Fearsome clone troopers are patrolling the campus! What is happening on the campus of KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Valhallavägen?

Tyresta National Park is merely an hour away from Stockholm, and is mostly rocks, wood, water. A special feature is a large area that was flame-cut by a raging wildfire in 1999, now offering a rough and strange landscape.

Stockholm is said to have very clean water. Indeed, I can only agree. Clean, refreshing, and open to everyone: swimming in Stockholm’s waters is excellent. What a welcome contrast to the lukewarm dirty waters around Hong Kong.

Travelling from Munich to Stockholm by train seems to be a crazy idea at the very first glance. However, coming at a price of 39,- EUR and virtually no baggage limit, I chose to take a 21h train ride on me to Stockholm via Nürnberg, Hamburg and Copenhagen with Deutsche Bahn. While the crowded trains made the journey tougher than expected, I was surprised by getting a ferry-ride for both the Intercity Express and myself.
