All that matters

Every single gesture in life is caused by love. Every sacrifice, every smile, every tear…love is that powerful.

The international student's group went to Gränna. We visited the Grenna Museum, where we listened the story of Andrée, a passionate dreamer about the unknown.

Andrée had the crazy idea to go to the North Pole by balloon.  With more two companions he concretized his big dream. This adventure had a tragic, but poetic ending.  

Courage cures death…that is the only medicine against time. Braveness´s actions transforms us in immortal beings. 

Andrée's passion for adventure gave him courage to fly with his own balloon to the northern part of Earth.  Because of that remains alive in our memories. 

I will never forget his story. Gränna is known for the traditional candy stores. Polkagris and caramels fills the store´s shelves. It´s impossible to resist! After a typical Swedish FIKA we went to see  Vättern, the big blue (and frozen) lake. There are almost 100 000 lakes throughout the country.In the afternoon the whole group went to IKEA. We took the opportunity to buy needed tools for our temporary (but not less beloved) home.
