Uppsala

On Tuesday, I went up to visit my dear friend Sofia in Uppsala, about 45 minutes from Stockholm. It's a small city, with a HUGE university that was built in the 1400's. There are so many young people biking about, and it was beautiful to see it in the snow. We did some sight seeing around the city, went to the old church, went dancing at the nations (which are SO cool, almost like a frat, but also serve as restaurants, bars, dance clubs, etc ... but you join according to your local province or city, for ex. Sofia is a part of the Stockholm nation ... the idea started at Oxford and Cambridge back in the day, when students from all over Europe came to study and wanted to live with people from their home country ) visited the libraries, and went out for coffee. It was such a great trip, and I was so happy to see Sofia after almost 2 years of being apart.
