I got to talking with the girl sitting next to me on the train to Malmo. I was telling her about my site and she pulled out her computer and for the next hour-and-a-half showed me pictures from her recent four-month trek through India. What an amazing trip. She said her money went so far there. Traveling in Scandinavia makes an American feel like an Indian traveling in Europe.<\/p>\n

Anyways, she phoned up her friend in Malmo to ask him what I should do when I got there, and he said, “Go to Lund.” So I hopped off the train early and stayed in Lund. This university town, about 10 minutes by train outside of Malmo, is a great place to wander around the old, medieval streets. Also, I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times, Lunders love bicycles.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

My hostel was actually an old, parked train.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If only I stayed in the boat hostel located in Stockholm, I could’ve said that I had spent the night in a plane, train and a boat.<\/p>\n

Of course the only bad thing about college towns in the summer is that they tend not to be as active at night. I watched the Germany v. Turkey match on a huge, outdoor screen in one of the town\u00b4s squares but then I got sleepy halfway through and had to leave. I’m ready to start enjoying the nightlife again when I get to Copenhagen. I got up early and spent the morning in Malmo. I think I made the right decision to stay in Lund. Malmo was good to see, but seeing it during the morning was good enough for me. I visited an international food bazaar in one of the old downtown streets.<\/p>\n

I got to Copenhagen with no problems, checked into the hostel, and after smelling myself and the contents of my bag, I decided to trek it over to the world-famous Laundromat Cafe in the hip district of N\u00f8rrebro to do my laundry and grab a drink. The Laundromat Cafe is probably one of the coolest laundromat\/cafe\/bars\/lending libraries in the world.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The owner told me to stop drinking the Diet Coke in front of me and he popped open a bottle of Anton’s \u00c6blemost, an organic Danish apple soda. N\u00f8rrebro reminds me of home, Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I think I’m gonna like this town.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
