Rock climbing with the Roommates!

My roommate, Veronika, is from the Czech Republic, and has been living in Linkoping for 5 years so she has been very helpful in giving advice and showing me around! She also drives a car which definitely allows more opportunity for exploring this gorgeous country.  This morning we met Veronika's friend,.Arnau, from Spain and headed out to the country for some rock climbing. The setting was amazing with a gorgeous lake and mature oak trees everywhere.

I didn't have the proper shoes so I'm climbing barefoot! :)

I found an awesome oak tree by the car and just couldn't resist!
