Hitchhiking

Hitch-hiking is and should always be an adventure, but it's good to make a travel route beforehand. A travel partner and a good map are essentials. Most Swedish people speak English, so language shouldn't be a problem once you cross the Swedish border. When you get to Järna, a lot of people will know where you want to go if you refer to "The Kulturhuset" (the Culture House) or The Rudolf Steiner Seminar. There will also be arrows set up from the Järna trainstation.

If you need some help in finding your way, you can contact Amanda (she's been a Swede for quite a while now) on her mobile number: +46 73 25 50 091
