BONUS: LEGO House

After the school trip had ended, we continued to travel through Scandinavia. We went to Oslo and took a day trip to Bergan to see Troldhaugen, the home of Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg. Afterward, we made out way to Billund, Denmark, where the LEGO company started, and ended the trip in London. During our trip […]

Visiting Gothenburg and Saying Goodbye…For Now

Our last stop on the trip was to Gothenburg! It was another beautiful city that I enjoyed walking around and wish we had more time to explore. Visiting Volvo Cars and Volvo Group was a long, tiring day but interesting. I didn’t expect to provide ideas to Volvo Group (just like I didn’t expect to […]

Closing the Show with Volvo

For our last stop in this journey, we took the train to Gothenburg, where we visited Volvo Cars and Volvo Group. They are officially two separate companies that share the Volvo brand name. We began with Volvo Cars. Historically, Volvo Cars have been guided by safety and distinctive Swedish design. They created the three-point safety […]

The Days We Were In Copenhagen, Lund, and Malmö

Mallory’s Thoughts When we arrived in Copenhagen, it seemed like everyone had the same thought: it’s not Stockholm. It’s not that the hotel or city were terrible, it’s just hard not compare to the nicer hotels and the lovely city of Stockholm. Maybe it was a mix of being a bit burnt out and not […]

Last Visits In Stockholm and Time To Explore!

Mallory’s Thoughts Our last visits in Stockholm were to Einride and Ericsson. Rein at Einride had us do a little case study, which I did not expect to do but it was nice that they wanted to hear what opportunities and challenges we thought Einride has. We all pretty much had the same concerns about […]

The Beautiful City of Stockholm

Mallory’s Thoughts Stockholm I spent two nights in Stockholm prior to meeting everyone in Skelleftea to squeeze in a bit more time to explore since friends that went last year said they didn’t really get much time to and also to try adjusting to the time difference. I was happy to visit Stockholm once again! […]

You Treated Us Well Scandinavia!

While having so much fun and a wonderful time in Scandinavia, time flew by and we can’t believe it’s the end of the trip! To wrap up the last two days, we took the train from Copenhagen to Gothenburg which featured a mad dash of all 20 of us rushing for the escalators to go […]

Canals and Candles in Copenhagen

Jetting over to Denmark! We landed in Copenhagen and got to enjoy the sights of the city, including Nyhavn, the canal with the beautiful colorful houses, the Little Mermaid Statue, and the panoramic views of the whole city after climbing the 400 steps up the Church of Our Saviour. It’s quite a trek to the […]

Holm Is Where the Heart Is

On our second day in Stockholm, we got to truly explore the city even more and we would be remiss if we didn’t mention our walks through Gamla Stan, or Stockholm’s Old Town, and Södermalm, the island south of Gamla Stan. Sandwiched between alleys with colorful houses and cobblestone streets, we wandered into tons of […]

Skellefteå- Small City, Big Business

Mallory’s Thoughts: We started our business course in the cold, windy city of Skelleftea, located in Northern Sweden. On the first day of business visits, we went to Northvolt, North Kingdom, and Skelleftea Science City. Northvolt hopes to create the world’s greenest battery. Northvolt Ett is the first giga factory and the total site is […]
