Once more the scouting world gathers again for a massive event, this time in Kristianstad - Sweden. I am lucky i can participate here, and here i'm sharing some stuff around it. You can check the previous post here.

Well, my Plan "A" failed... but not totally, since i did arrived to Malmö. I just didn't count on some stuff:
- The boat ride took me to Helsinborg instead of Malmö.
- I needed a transportation card to get into the bus in Sweden.
- There was nowhere to buy this card on the place i arrived to.
- The freaking card was expensive (and, go figure, u need local currency).
- Even when expensive, the card gave me a flat rate for all my transportation (train + bus).
- Swedish bus drivers were nice.
- I needed accomodation 1 night out of my schedule.
Regarding this last point, i was very lucky that my friend Juan from Mexico was in Lund right on those days... and that i got his phone number. He helped me to avoid beeing bedless the night of the 20th of July... Dziekuje Janek!!

So it was not that bad at all, since it was my 1st time sailing for real (and i mean beyond a 30-minutes-touristic-trip), got my card to travel to other cities by trains (and the chance to take as many buses as i want)... and, of course, get some nice stories to publish here 😊
I never did tourism right in the middle of a raining day, but since i'm so far away from home i just thought it would be pointless to remain sit and comfortable... so i took my camera and my very creepy+short raincoat and went for some good pics! ...at Malmö, Lund, Helsinborg and Ystad.

So, after some days i thought that i didn't need to get back to Kobenhavn to get to the campsite... i can go on my own since i have my beautiful JoJo Summer Card :) ...so, i'll pack in Malmö and go by train and by myself... Jamboree, here i go!!

| All packed... scout shirt + scarf on... lets go!! |

Go check the World Organization of the Scout Movement and check for some evens, if you want...
But if you are a scout, i really really tell you: go to an international activity and enjoy it as much as you can, and you'll have the time of your life.
