Erasmus en suède

Bon bon, je sais, j'ecris pas des masses... voila un article, en anglais s'il vous plait, qui montre un tout petit peu la follie de mes collocs ! (Bon bon, y a mon prof d'anglais préféré qui est passé derrière... merci !)

In Sweden, it's not so easy to have wine, beer and other drinks... In fact, if you want to have drinks with more than 3,5% alcohol, you have to go to "SystemBolaget", a state shop that sells them... And it's really expensive...

That is one of the reason that led my (crazy) corridormates -Russell, Karl and Pierre- to make their proper wine ! In fact, it's not really wine, there are no graps for example... I didn't understand the whole fabrication process (and, even if I've understood, I cannot tell the "secrete" of fabrication...).

What I know is that you have to wait at least one week to make the wine in a big plastic box.

During this time, you can find a name ("Château Flogsta" for example), create the labels (the most important step in fact, which makes the wine, and I have to say that Chateau Flogsta labels are really nice) and above all, find bottles !

So, you have to drink a lot of Coca cola (Not a big problem for Russell... ), to find enough bottles for 20 liters of wine ! After the bottles have to be cleaned, and decorated with the labels.













You have to find a song, for example, "Emmenez-moi" of Charles Aznavour, don't ask me why but it's the favourite french song of Karl and it's really funny when he sings it !! Then, it's the time to put the wine in the bottles, not easy !
And finally, you can taste it ! In theory, there should be a party for the wine... but I'm still waiting for it ! The wine is not so bad... (it could be worse)...
To have more information about Château Flogsta go here .
What else ?
Russel's room is craper than before (if it's possible) (now it smells bad wine...). Our corridor is really famous for its wine... The fridge is fulled with bottles of wine ! Now I've just to say, come here to cling glasses with us !! Skål !!
