Saint George or Raoul Wallenberg, how far did they go?

 I was in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2015 Summer with my mother.

We went only for a few days, around Midsommardagen. The is Sankt Hans in Denmark. 

From Shakespeare, you can learn from the play A Midsummer Night's Dream.

And in Hungarian, we talk about this night as Saint John's Eve.


I read the Shakespeare play in the gymnasium.

I walked through ashes/pit ash as a child several Summers...


So what was so special about Stockholm?

I was supposed to be there first time in my life, but it felt like a place where I lived before...

Every corner in the old town felt like home, and every corner told a story. 

There were three very memorable points of the city that I keep in mind. 

But let's talk now about Saint George.

You can find this sculpture in the church downtown. I do not tell more... you need to search more...


Do you know Raoul Wallenberg?

Do you know where they last saw him?

Around Debrecen, Hungary...

Can you guess what sculpture you will see there?
