Hello fellow kilt wearers!
My name is Eddie Fernberg and I just recently entered the wonderful world of kilts when I bought my first in black watch tartan from Scottish House in Stockholm. Prior to this, my encounters with scottish culture have only been whisky drinking, since I've never sat foot in Scotland and have no ancestors there.
I live in Uppsala, where I study Informational systems and databases at Swedens oldest university. In the never ending lineup of student societies I have found a couple of kilt wearers who regulary do stuff in kilts and introduced me to the most comfortable and elegant piece of clothing I have worn!
Since the kilt, in the highland dress variation, is regarded as an equivalent of the academic tailcoat I will most likely start wearing that on every upcoming ball.
Looking forward to be a part of this forum! Thanks for letting me in.
As we say in Sweden:
Tack för mig och på återseende!
(Thanks for me until next time!)
Kind regards,
