DAY V – Time for Fika

The fifth day of mobility was the penultimate day we spent in Sweden.

At noon we took a bus to one of the Senior Homes in Malmö, which we had not been to before. When we arrived, everyone was asked to sit on chairs and start preparing for yoga and meditation classes. So we did – relaxing music was turned on, which put everyone into a state of relaxation, and then we started gentle stretching classes prepared especially for seniors. After yoga, it was time for breathing exercises and meditation.

When we finished the relaxation section, it was time for Fika – this is how we call it a coffee break with refreshments in Sweden. While we were talking among ourselves, one of the Seniors approached us, who – as it turned out – came from Poland. The conversation with her was endless! She told us interesting facts about Sweden and how Malmö has changed over the years and what life there looks like from a senior’s perspective. Then we went as a group to one of the museums in Malmö, where we admired old cars, planes and ships, and also used the interactive part where each of us tried different devices – there was a lot of fun and laughter. After visiting the museum, we returned to the hotel for dinner in anticipation of the next day.
