1/16-17 – The Long Journey to Sweden
Team breakfast was a great experince, with everyone bonding over the lack of sleep!
It was a long but exciting journey to get to Sweden, but we made it safe and sound! Our journey started on a bus from Carthage to O’hare. The we had our 8 hour flight from Chicago to Copenhagen. After that, we flew from Copenhagen to Gothenburg on a short 1 hour flight. Finally, we took taxi’s from the airport to the hostel we will be staying at for the duration of the trip!
Most of the days food consisted of plane meals, which all things considered were not too shabby!
We had our first unplanned hiccup, with me and Lauren finding out that we were on a different flight from Copenhagen to Gothenburg than the rest of the class!! We had to sprint across the airport just to make our flight in time, and arrived in Gothenburg about an hour before the rest of our class. However, despite the extra stress, it was still a fun journey, and my plane buddy Lauren and I certainly got a travel experience we will never forget!
3 Main takeaways
1. Always double and triple check your plane ticket!!
2. Don’t just stick to talking to the people you already know, branch out and get to know the others that you are spending time with.
3. Don’t stress so much, everything works out the way it is supposed to.
