Today Gothenburg is full of sun, warmth and flags! Sweden celebrates birth of new princess, daughter of Prince Daniel and Princess Victoria. Hmh..sounds like a sentence from a fairy tale, isn’t it?
Anyway, tomorrow will be some salutes fired in Gothenburg, to celebrate the birth of new Royal family member.
If you like seafood, 
Feskekörka in Gothenburg is a place you definitely have to visit. First, the location is absolutely brilliant looking like a church. Second, probably this is the only place in Gothenburg where you can find the best choice of fish and sea delicacies that are, by the way, amazingly fresh. Finally, if you do not feel like cooking, you may have lunch in a number of nice cafés in Feskekörka. I could definitely recommend hot sandwich with shrimps and marinated salmon.
Bon appetit!

Interesting for all students studying within IT, software development and management!
The student computer club SKIP at the IT faculty organizes a seminar in Scrim held by a certified Scrum master. This is a great chance to get insights of Scrum development process and learn something new!
A brief Scrum history: In 1986, Hirotaka Takeuchi and Ikujiro Nonaka described a new tactic that would increase speed and flexibility at the cost of design and quality, based on case studies from manufacturing firms in the automotive, photocopier, restaurants food and printer manufacturers. They called this the holistic or rugby approach, as the whole process is performed by one cross-functional group across multiple overlapping phases, where the group “tries to go the distance as a unit, passing the ball back and forth”.
The seminar will take place this Wednesday(22nd of February) at the campus Lindholmen, Patricia building, floor 4, rum Torg Grön. Between 13 to 15 pm.
Don’t miss it!
During this semester many of my classmates are doing their internships, some of them are abroad. For me, as probably for many students, internship is the most existing part of studies, so I it’s always interesting to know about your “colleagues’” experience.
In the blog The Europe Correspondents you can follow students of the European Studies programme and the Master Programme in European Studies doing internships and/or exchange studies all over Europe/the world.
For now, my classmates Lisa and Jonathan sharing their experience of living and doing internships in Brussels. Enjoy!

Master Thesis writing is a kind of very special time in your studies. On the one hand, you have four months to finish a paper that comprises out of 60 pages. That is definitely not much, especially considering the fact that you’ve a partner. On the other hand, it involves really much reading and discussion on almost all, even minor points. And that takes time, more than you can ever imagine.
Moreover, as you’re getting more knowledge on the topic of your interest, you may decide that it is not really what you want to do for the next couple of months. So, you need to change it, as we’ve done with my partner recently, switching from Swedish TNCs in India to EURO 2012 and its impacts on Poland and Ukraine. What a nice transition?
