In 2022 my amazing colleague Emelie and I went on a trip to Östersund to see the Nordic Myths exhibition at Nationalmuseum Jamtli. We then wrote an article, which later grew into two articles. Super happy to see Part 1 published today, check it out, there are pictures!

When people say that German or any other language is romantic, Dr. Daruwalla thought, all they really mean is that they've enjoyed a past in the language (c) John Irving, 'A Son of the Circus'
