Today we interviewed at girl named Sandra Lindh (yes, she does have the same last name as Frida, and yes, it’s her sister!). She was born in 1987, has lived in Gothenburg her entire life and is attending Handelshögskolan. She spent her exchange year (2005/2006) in Cape Town, South Africa. We met her at McDonalds at Brunnsparken for lunch.

The first thing she said was that her year in South Africa was absolutely wonderful. In one year she had never had that much fun, experienced that many things, and learned that much about life and about herself before. She learned how to adapt to a new culture, how to appreciate differences, and how to see things from another point of view. She also got aware of how good we really do have it here in Sweden, but that it doesn’t mean that we always do everything in the right way. We still have a lot to learn from other countries, especially when it comes how to prioritize and how to live life. But what she focused most on during the interview was her friends; she made friends for life that she will never forget.

Today we made the front page of our handbook. It was very exciting because now it really feels that we are starting to get somewhere with the actual handbook. We are doing the handbook in a program called “Adobe Indesign CS3” which is a v...

Today we continued with what we were doing last time; trying to find scholarships that are supporting exchange students. We haven’t found as many as we hoped for, but here comes the last ones. “Axel och Sofia Alms stiftelse”; they g...

Back in Sweden! Today we started to look into what different options you have if you want to apply for a scholarship. This wasn’t as easy as we had thought; most of them have some kind of restriction or demand that you don’t achieve throu...
