Monday, March 30th - Two visits today. 
One to AstraZeneca - Alison's host, Stefan, told us about their pharmaceutical operations in Sweden and on the site in Molndal where they do mostly R & D work. Their facility in Molndal is HUGE and the architecture is amazing! This is just a portion of two builidings on the site.

to IKEA. There we met with the Social and Environmental Coordinator to hear about their business practices PLUS we had a little extra time to do some shopping - even though we have an IKEA in Bloomington at home, it's still more fun to shop in Sweden!

Thanks again to everyone that we have come in contact with during our time in Sweden - - it has been a trip of a lifetime and I, for one, will NEVER forget the things I have seen or the people I have met during my stay!!!!
Tack så mycket!! Steph

Hejsann allihoppa!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on (nearly) completing a successful GSE tour. It's overwhelming, exhausting, simulating and inspiring all at the same time. The connections you've made, both with your hosts and with each other, will prove invaluable.
I've really enjoyed reading your updates and keeping tabs on your discoveries.
I hope that you'll consider a few more "from the home front" blog updates as you get home, decompress and see ways to apply what you've learned and experienced.
Trevelig resa hem och vi ses!
Halsningar,
Lynn
