Since the departure back to Cologne came closer and closer, I decided to end my trip spending some more time in Säljeryd, a small alternative farm collective near Växjo. I had crashed there before and wanted to see all the wonderful people again. My stay there was brilliant fun, if you plan to visit Sweden you should definitely consider going to the festival they organise, which takes place in summer. More info here: saljerydfestivalen.se
I hope my Photos kind of give you an impression of how simple and fun life is there.

Besides hanging around the campfire, being creative and cooking excellent food every day, we organised a small Permaculture festival with (among others) a felting course and went to a Tinyhouse convention in Växjo, which was pretty interesting.
Naturally, they had a Vanagon at the Tinyhouse convention.
Since I love building stuff from wood and wanted to give something back to the collective, I created a small outpost in a tree, which has become quite a cozy place for relaxing and observing nature. Also, I rebuilt all the pathways surrounding it since they were pretty rotten.
Thanks to everybody who made my trip this amazing! I will definitely come back to Sweden in the future. This was the last post so far, already very excited for next year's adventures.
