First time in Sweden!

Hi Folks! Here is Łukasz– Globala’s volunteer!

Stenshuvud Nationalpark

I want to tell you about my first time in Sweden! But first start with some introduction. So my name is Łukasz (yes, it is starting with this L with extra line and it makes people confused :), don’t give up you can pronounce it!). I come from Poland, where I used to live in beautiful city Gdańsk (you are very welcome to visit this city, there are direct flights from Växjö).  My occupation is teaching and biology, but I also have experience as an anti-discrimination trainer. But let’s go back to the main topic, so my first… months in Sweden.

Wooden red houses – one day I will live in one of them.


First time…
