Travel
Every year, UPF Lund organizes two trips–one short and one long–to places of political interest all around the world. Earlier trips had destinations such as Washington D.C., Colombia, Cairo and Athens to name but a few. On a typical UPF trip, there are abundant meetings with relevant actors of political and cultural interest.
All of our trips are planned commonly by the members of the committee. That way, everyone can bring forth their own ideas, views and particular interests. The members of the travel committee are selected for different tasks. These include organizing flights and transfers, booking meetings and applying for scholarships.
The Travel Committee meets every Monday, 17-18 at the UPF office.

Meet the Travel Committee
Sabina Rameke
Hey! My name is Sabina and I’m head of the Travel committee. I started out at UPF as a member of the Pod & Radio committee, which I was head of last year while finishing up my Bachelor’s degree in Human Geography. I’m now studying over at LUSEM, getting my Master’s in the field of economic history and specializing in economic development.
In my free time, I like to read, learn new languages, cook, and write.
Max Ulander
Hi! My name is Max, and I’m the Head of Travel for the operational year 2025-2026. I study BSc Economy & Society here in Lund and have been a member of UPF for 2 years now.
Having grown up abroad, I truly believe travel is one of the best ways to broaden your perspective, helping you better understand the world while fostering meaningful cross-cultural connections.
This year, my co-head Sabina and I are excited to organize plenty of opportunities for travel, both international and regional. We look forward to seeing many of you on our trips!
