€5 Sweden trip and a church mate!

On Saturday, I left for a trip to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden… and I just came back today (Monday). It was cool because I only spent €5 (i.e. $10) to get there and back by a ship!!! Cool huh? Haha… but we only spent 7 hours there, because it take 16 hours by boat… haha so most of the trip was spent sleeping on the ship.`But it was great because the ship’s cabin was just like a star cruise type of cabin! (and for such a good price!)

Our ship: Gabriella

The cabin for 4 people (two upper bunks)


Sunrise from the boat... at 9 am, haha.


Anyway, at Stockholm, the scenery was beautiful. We walked around the “old town” area and I felt like I was in a world different world… because they had streets that I’ve only seen movies. Very sweet and quaint =)


The ISE gang in Sweden

The Finland gang + Ping Yong (one of the twins) - Daryl (the photographer)

This is actually a famous street in Stockholm... it's the smallest street

And interestingly… Stockholm has a lot of these types of statues everywhere… haha, and most of them are naked! Hahaha.

Singaporeans! (The whole Finland gang of 7, and 4 others from Sweden)


One thing that I thank God for is that I discovered that Ivan (one of the Singaporean guys who is also studying in Finland for his exchange programme) is also a Christian! And God is good… because before the trip, I decided to go to this particular church which I felt was not bad because I have listened to their sermons online. And when I was talking to Ivan, I found out that he went there once before and that he will continue to go to that church too! So just like that, I have a church mate, so I don’t have to feel so alone when I go to church!!! Haha. Sweet.

Anyway, I’m tired and sleepy, so don’t really feel like blogging… haha.
