I really admire how the international committee at this university works. They organize events and activities for us erasmus students to keep us away from the dullness of this small town, and help us get away from our studies once in a while. We had one of those nights in Karen: A Taco Buffet Night..
Karen = Student Union.. In Sweden it's obligatory to be a part of the student union, to be considered as a full-time student and be offered it's benefits. Our Karen building is right across the university entrance. We had our "welcome mingle" in there, which was really nice. During the daytime they serve food in there. They also have some sort of a pub for us students to drink, and a pretty dance floor. The best part is that it's run by volunteers. it's "for students, by students" type of thing. You can get to serve some meals and drinks for an event, and in return you can have a free meal and the chance to be a part of the after-chats, which sounds really cool!. I think we'll be visiting (and serving?) Karen more often in the following months for various occasions.

P.S. I just realized that the girl in the above picture wears a shirt that says: "Feel safe tonight, sleep with a nurse" =)
