I need some hobbies which I can only do in Sweden. And, since I love history and learning language, I have decided to learn Runic language, which the Vikings used almost 1000 years ago. Runes are the language the Vikings used when they curved runestones. There are many runestones in Sweden and especially in Stockholm, so I decided to walk around the city to search for runestones and learn how they lived in this country. 😀

I believe that it will surprise some Asian expat like me who lives in Sweden is learning runes so that I can learn more about Swedish culture and history. Well, we will see, how I will improve my runes´ knowledge. 😁👍

The plate near the runestone, U293
Stenen är ristad av runmästaren Visäte som var verksam vid mitten av 1000-talet. Samma familj har också rest de två runstenar som står ca 65 respective 200 meter längre åt söder. Alla tre stenarna står vid den gärna vägen mellan Smedby och Vilunda.
