The longhouse

We went to a Viking Longhouse near Östersund, an hours flight north from Stockholm. The longhouse is set in the forest of Norderön. I arrived on the friday evening, while everyone else had been there all week. Theres something surreal about being met at the airport by Vikings, but at least I could figure out quite easily who I should talk to.
