So, some friends and I rented out the beautiful sauna located in Nymble, the KTH student union building.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The sauna (<em>bastun)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The preparations were pretty simple. After paying the rental fee (1250 SEK) and getting a special key, we had access to the sauna all day and evening.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/05\/sauna1.jpg?resize=1024%2C680&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"(Image of the sitting room outside the KTH sauna at Nymble)\" class=\"wp-image-6732\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sauna area includes a changing room with a small fridge and bathroom. After that, there is the sitting room, which includes chairs, 6 showers, a sink, and another bathroom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-default\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kth.se\/blogs\/studentblog\/files\/2022\/05\/sauna2.jpg?resize=1024%2C680&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"(interior of KTH sauna)\" class=\"wp-image-6735\" width=\"1024\" height=\"680\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then finally, the sauna! It was definitely one of the largest I\u2019ve been in and is designed for around 20 people. Since we weren&#8217;t quite that many, it comfortably suited our group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rent premises at Nymble<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By becoming a THS (<em>Tekniska H\u00f6gskolans Studentk\u00e5r<\/em>) member or by being a THS student organisation, you can book various <a href=\"https:\/\/ths.kth.se\/en\/general\/nymble-osqvik\/information-about-the-premises\">premises<\/a> within Nymble (including the sauna), as well as the THS-owned archipelago cabin property Osqvik. When split between attendees, the prices are usually very reasonable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THS Membership<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To become a <a href=\"https:\/\/ths.kth.se\/en\/general\/membership\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ths.kth.se\/en\/general\/membership\">THS member <\/a>costs 365 SEK for the year and is possible for any student who has active course registration at KTH. It comes along with a list of benefits like free entry at events, the ability to book premises, and discounts on food at the restaurants and cafes in Nymble. But no worries now &#8212; you\u2019ll hear plenty of reminders and emails about it during your first weeks at KTH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you choose to activate your student union membership or not, Nymble will still be a place of many opportunities for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\/\/ Claire<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the weekend, many students were busy celebrating the spring holiday Valborg in university cities across Sweden.&nbsp; With work on my degree project getting more intense, I needed a more lowkey Friday night to relax and recharge.
