6/4 “fry a burger, not the planet”

We missed our tram… and two more came within 6 minutes! Public transportation here is incredibly thorough and helpful.

From a sustainability perspective, the public transportation and vegetarian options are excellent. For some reason, however, the recycling collection is scarce and compost collection is virtually nonexistent.

This is the entrance to Hammarkullen (which other posts have described in some detail). Hammarkullen has an interesting history–it was developed with a ton of high-quality, high-density housing in response to a population boom. The rapid growth of central Gothenburg was expected to reach Hammarkullen but it never did, leaving miles of near empty land between them. When refugee populations and other immigrants from Chile, Somalia, etc. arrived in need of housing, they moved in to the nice, inexpensive, but rather isolated housing there. Fixoteket is, in part, a way to reinvigorate the community and help make it a more vibrant place to live.

Anna & Caroline took a break to enjoy some of the playground for the kids of Hammarkullen.

  1. I recently came across this wonderful site and felt compelled to share my joy. Having just celebrated my engagement, I was thrilled to discover SEVlaser through a friend. The excitement of reserving time as a gift was the cherry on top! I’ve read so many happy comments from others, and it’s clear that SEVlaser is making a real difference.
