A lot of exciting things are happening at Fårösunds Folkhögskola – ”folk high school”. To start with, I think the school felt a bit out of the way and maybe a bit old-fashioned, but recently I noticed it has become a hot spot where both the girls at Ella’s Rock School and the students in the commercial scriptwriting program work with frequent international contacts.
The scriptwriters are in contact with experts from all over the world who give lectures via webcam. Right now it’s even more cool: Bill Mernit, the ”king of Rom-Com” is visiting the school! He has actually come all the way from Los Angeles and the University of California to visit Gotland and the small community of Fårsöund in the north of Gotland to meet the students!
This is totally wonderful! The school has done a really good job, and I suspect that the principal, Meit Fohlin, has a big part in this international profiling of the school. Keep going like this!
