Study tour in Europe

We visit a festival in Europe.

The unique thing about folk high school is that you can learn about what you like - because you want to! We organized the teaching according to what we wanted to learn about. In the breaks, the discussion was loose. What is justice? Who has the power? It was incredibly inspiring!

What former students say

Before Sund , I'd had a year off and was about to start a study program I was halfway motivated for. Luckily, I took the time for a year at Regnskoglinja, the time to find out what I care about and what I really want. I'm very happy about that.
