In addition, it is located on a steep cliff with a breathtaking view over the ... http://blog.schorschium.org/?p=588 The southern end of sweden is marked by the city of Ystad. There is a busy ferry harbour, a nice historic city district and next to the city endless sand beaches. The inner city beach: The old ferry building: Thunderstorm cloud over the Baltic sea: Jet-Ferry to Bornholm: http://blog.schorschium.org/?p=584 Even closer to Lund a small town called Lomma can be found. Besides a huge yacht harbor, students enjoy the nice beaches and the surprisingly warm water. I personally did not swin here but instead just read on the beach. http://blog.schorschium.org/?p=577 Pretty close to Malmö, the artificial island of Skanör can be found. Its main features are gorgeous long sand beaches and a nice yacht harbor. I enjoyed several weekends visiting this place: And some more lighthouses (and a nature preserve): http://blog.schorschium.org/?p=574 On my way to Lund, I stopped twice to visit my former room mate Florian in Magdeburg (see pictures below) and Christian in Hamburg, who is pursuing his PhD at the TU Harburg: At the arrival in Lund, I found a very nice and convenient located appartment, which is very close ... http://blog.schorschium.org/?p=569
