My Introduction - An Intern for a Week

Hello my name is David Granskog, I am 19 and I will be an intern at Amelia Andersdotter’s office for a week, from the 10th till the 14th of February.

I come from Sweden and I live in a little community called Bålsta which I would say is located about 40 minutes north of Stockholm. I am on my third and final year in the Swedish “gymnasium” and my studies are oriented around society related subjects.

One might wonder how I ended up in this rather lucky position. Well, my teacher in social studies, Elin Quas, contacted Andersdotter’s office and managed to allow for two of her students to spend a week in Andersdotter’s office each. These students were to apply for the internship and then Elin Quas would choose the two must “suitable” ones. One of those lucky fellas turned out to be me.

My connections to the Swedish Pirate Party as well as the European pirate movement are rather few to say the least. I would not say that I disagree with the ideas and the politic they stand for, rather that I have never taken my time to really look more closely into it.

In Sweden, in the main media, the Swedish Pirate Party has not had much attention during the latest years, therefore, as a Swede, all I know of the “pirate movement” is what I learned from media during the former EU election, that is to say, very little. But hopefully at the end of the week that will have changed.

In all honesty, I do not know what I am to expect as when it comes to the tasks I will be carrying out. For all I know I might become an expert at making coffee, or I will be buried in papers, but it is all right. I will take anything I can get, I just hope I will come out whole at the end of the week, one great experience richer.
