Arriving in Lund

Since the Housing Office didn't offer us an apartment, we went to Lund four days in advance to get one. Till then, we wanted to stay at a couchsurfer: Fabian. I don't have to say anything else than: We still are there. We just underestimated the housing situation in Lund. It sucks. Hard.
What to tell about Fabian? He's an awesome guy. We planned to be at his place for 2-3 days but he offered us without any hesitation to stay. We met him before work - he just told us to feel at home and gave us the key. But I think you are curious: Here's a picture:
 

He looks somehow drunk, but I assure you he isn't (yeah, I know, he's drinking beer out of wine glasses). It just isn't the best picture. He took so much time showing Lund to us: I love this town!
Lund's most famous place: The Cathedral. The tell the truth, I took the picture a few days earlier. That explains the awesome weather (still unmatched!) and the lack of a thumb =(

In the basement, there is a wishing well. Of course, Rico had to try it!

After we had been on our feet the whole day (and meeting two of his sisters), we went to an Irish Pub where we had our first Swedish Guinness: 3 Guinness - 24€. Wow!

Here should be a picture of us, but I don't have it yet. Sorry.

The next day, we just relaxed and looked for accomodation. And we went shopping - on a sunday! By now, we know that "coop" is one of the more expensive supermarkets. And friends, you won't believe it: What is the cheapest supermarket you can find in Lund? LIDL!!! However, you have to get used to paying nearly twice as much as in Germany. Rico can't believe that Sweden is so expensive!

After all this shopping, we were really hungry. Our first self-made meal in Sweden? Spaghetti Bolognese! Yummy!

Since Rico had been camping in the Allgäu (shitty German weather - just like the Swedish) before our trip and had not more than 30 minutes to pack his bags he had to use the washing machine. What I was impressed of: There's some special kind of dryer which looks like an closet. You hang up your clothes, you close the door and an oversized hair-dryer starts. Huge advantage: You don't have to iron!
Well, Rico is just happy that he doesn't have to wear the same underpants for another 2 weeks...

Well, that's it for today. I'll continue crying until we find an apartment of our own.
Hej då!
