The rest of Sweden
When it comes to area, Sweden is one of the larger countries in Europe, stretching from south to north. In terms of population, however, it is a small country with around 10.5 million inhabitants.

The capital Stockholm, which is about 600 kilometres from Lund, is well worth a visit, as are many other places and landscapes. Swedes have a very high level of English as a second language, so you can get by with English anywhere in the country.
Sweden is known for its world-class education and its focus on equality, sustainability and innovation. It is also home to the Nobel Prize, a famous and prestigious global academic award.
