Prison cells in Scandinavia are often considered to be more humane & comfortable compared to those in many other countries. Scandinavian countries emphasize rehabilitation over punishment in their criminal justice systems.
This approach is based on the belief that treating inmates with dignity & respect can lead to lower recidivism rates & better outcomes for society as a whole.

▴ Uppsala Cathedral

Uppsala Cathedral is the largest church building in Scandinavia, with its twin spires reaching over 118 meters into the sky. I had the privilege of seeing the imposing cathedral regularly, but capturing it shrouded in fog remains one of my favorite moments.
