We have been to Esrange until friday, the 5th of February! It has been a tough student training week, lots of information has been provided by the experts and all the student teams had their PDR. After the training week we had the chance to visit Stockholm and stay there for a couple of days: it's a fantastic city, we have loved it!
Coming soon: Photos and comments on both the training week in Kiruna and the two days we spent in Stockholm.
