…but nobody’s there. Instead I find this: Either someone genuinely wants to welcome me back to Linköping, or these cookies have some “special” ingredients

Thursday, the 2nd of September. My time in Switzerland is over, and I’m sitting here in my new apartment in Linköping. The last ten days can be described as crash landing and takeoff. Monday, the 23rd of August: Studying for the exam in probability theory. The exam starts at 15:00, but when I get to [...]

It is a strange feeling sitting in my room and realizing that this year is almost over. In just a few days Scandinavian Airlines will take me home to the country in the north. But what is “Home”, really? I’ve been pondering this question during these twelve months. Sweden or Switzerland? Both? I’m not sure, [...]

I have finally taken a step that has taken far too many years: I got baptized! It has been tugging at my heart for the last months, and what better place to do it than in the company of good friends in Zürich, the city I love? On a Monday afternoon at the Arboretum at [...]

Summer barbecue in Wädenswil with my Zwänzgerband friends. People had brought their instruments, and together with Joel’s portable amp we had an afternoon of jamming on the beachside. The water was even warmer than the air. Having a part of the seaside just for us was amazing; on days like these all public beaches become [...]

Canton Glarus, visiting José and Beni (as pictured). Beni had invited me to see the best sights of his home canton of Glarus. As he had a car, we could go and see all the sights that are unavailable for train travelers like myself. Really generous of him, I had no idea about the hidden [...]

It seems like we have frequent visitors at the student house… “Not again”, was my first thought as I heard the alarm, before putting on my shoes and reaching for the Speed Freak. “Let’s make the best of the situation and snap some quick shots of the firemen.” It was some automatic alarm on the [...]

The weather was superb. 30 degrees Celsius and sunshine, and a light breeze over Lac Léman. Perfect. Music was played in almost every [...]
