On Wednesday, October 11th, join UBC Nordic Studies and the UBC SNSA in welcoming back best-selling author of the Gone Viking travel series, Bill Arnott.

Freshly off releasing his latest book, Gone Viking III: The Holy Grail, Bill is back at UBC to once again provide a humorous, vivid, and enlightening account of his travel to the Nordic region.

For his two previous travelogues, Bill was granted a fellowship by London’s Royal Geographical Society. In his third installment, Bill “…takes his readers on a new and unique adventure as he attempts to unravel the mysteries of fabled odysseys and legendary travellers, from seafaring Scandinavians to druidic Celts, goddesses, gods, and Arthurian knights”.

Agenda:

3:00-4:00pm: The UBC Scandinavian and Nordic Student Association, UBC Nordic Studies, and Bill welcome all for Fika beforehand in Buchanan Tower 910.

4:30pm-5:30pm: Afterwards, swing by Buchanan B303 where Bill will be talking about his travels and newly released book.
