June 7, 2012 – Red Loop

Ok Red Loop: Where were all the girls? Seriously, Red Loop was the first place we’ve been with no women working there. 

Also, the open office plan with desks grouped together seems to be the more common layout in this region. I wonder how office politics play out differently here because of it?

Malmo seems to be more spread out that Copenhagen is, and the newer area with all the new developments felt empty, despite all of the new shiny attractive buildings. The only people we saw in the whole area were at the skate park and in the Netto there, it was sort of eerie.

I’ve enjoyed visiting the schools we have so far, and I’m extremely jealous of the fact that students are actually paid to go to college! Seeing how another country emphasizes education as so critical and important makes me feel like our country is FUCKED.

Also of interesting note: There is far less tagging in Malmo than in Copenhagen. Wonder why that is?
