Ines sent me this card a few weeks ago just to let me know she's still alive. We're pals but she didn't have much time to write letters in the last months. Wtih no time to write letters, she sent me a card from Lund, which she visited on her last holidays.
Lund is a city in the province of Scania, southern Sweden. Lund is believed to have been founded around 990, when Scania was part of Denmark. The city was ceded to Sweden in the Treaty of Roskilde in 1658, and its status as part of Sweden was formalised in 1720.
Lund University (white building on the card), established in 1666, is today one of Scandinavia's oldest and largest institutions for education and research. The university and its buildings dominate much of the centre of the city, and have led to Lund becoming a centre for high-tech industry in the south of Sweden. - in: wikipedia
