me, wife and 2 sons (20 and 22) will be in Stockholm in early August for about 5-6 days. Wanted to add a second, side trip for a couple days/nights. We'd fly

wife loves the fairytale look of Tallinn and it does look super cute. probably wouldn't make it much beyond that old town. maybe a bit easier in and out (flight times and $ are about the same). while it's only a couple days, would it feel much the same as Stockholm being on the water? Krakow looks like amazing and varied architecture. but is obviously much bigger, sounds hotter and more crowded. being a Uni town, maybe a younger feel for the kids?

we all like beer halls/gardens, cute squares, unique shopping (kids love vintage), good food, live music, live sports (on tv) friendly locals. former chef so we are all kid of foodies. we live in NC USA so while the hottest summers I have ever experienced were actually in Europe (Italy 2022) not worried about heat as we are used to it

thoughts? it's a short trip so sure either is good. Stockholm is for sure. have business there. but wanna add on side trip. kids loved Prague when we were there few years back. Is Krakow similar vibe? Also loved Copenhagen for food/drink

thanks in advance!

so I just finished my first year at Carolina. Did Sophomore transfer in from UNCC. Have always planned to to study abroad the spring semester of my Junior year

due to summer school and APs I just realized that I in fact only have 4 courses left + "high impact experience" (HIE) and I am done. So running ahead of schedule

the HIE req is satisfied by study abroad. and the programs I am most interested in are only spring. plus Fall '26 app window is closed. but is UNC basically going to say "you're done minus that HIE...you can't study abroad?" The SA website seems to imply that. Going to call them in next few days but wanted to see if anyone had experience going abroad as a senior-ish

I read the grades might not transfer back in, in time to graduate in May 2027. which i am ok with. I don't need to "walk" in May. But if the HIE is the last thing I need will they even allow? and just let me walk in Winter? or not walk at all? I don't really care - mail me the diploma!

TIA
