The Journey:

Finally in Sweden. The journey has been long and on the whole pretty uninteresting. Slept through most of the flight to Milan. The Air-hostesses weren't all that great and the flight had no Personal Entertainment Systems. Fair enough for the prices we paid :)

The stop-over at Milan could have been more exciting, but we were in the Transit Area and they don't have too many shops. We just had breakfast there. After a 4-hour transit we boarded the flight to Stockholm.

Arlanda airport is so far out of the city, its probably illegal for Stockholm to claim it is a Stockholm airport. Its a good 45 km outside the city! after taking a shuttle to Stockholm, we faced another long and final jouney of 5 hours to Jonkoping.

After almost 22 hours of travel we finally reach the sleepy little town of Jonkoping. Fortunately we had someone receive us at the Centrum with the keys to our apartment, else we would have had to spend the night at a youth hostel or something...

note: always declare you are a student (and prove it) while travelling, else you will miss out on discounts...
