Gotland
We have been traveling in Gotland, Sweden for the last couple weeks. We are staying with a family that runs a large organic (ekologisk) farm on Gotland, in the town of Dalhem, but live on the small island of Fårö (where Ingmar Bergman lived and died).
While here, we have spent some time working on the farm (harvesting potatoes, onions, and carrots), quite a bit of time reading on the beautiful and unusual beaches, and some time touring around Gotland. The main industries here are: tourism, limestone mining, and farming. We have had a lot of amazing experiences, met some fascinating people, and have learned a lot. We will be posting about our various experiences in more detail in the coming week.
