We had the day off from the Dare2Build workshop today because it was Swedish Independence Day. To celebrate, the Compostmate team, the Vaxthus team, and the Chalmers Entrepreneurship students all went to explore the islands in the archipelago. I had an amazing time walking around one of the island and experiencing Swedish culture. The day was a complete success thanks to the organization and generosity of the Chalmers students!

The Fixoteket repair center was built by architecture students this past year. We were able to see what they had already built, start improvements, and landscape the area outside the workshop.

Today was the first day of the Dare2Build workshop. The workshop focuses on building a repair workshop and recycling center for the primarily immigrant community in Hammarkullen. The name of the repair workshop is Fixoteket. I was able to meet many architecture students from all across Europe and work with them on possible designs and sketches.

Everyone on the Compostmate team arrived in Gothenburg today! It is my first time in Sweden and I am very eager to have the opportunity to work with students at Chalmers in the following days. I am blown away by how much public transportation there is!
