Swede Mate!




Stockholm - It's hard to do justice to the most beautiful city we've seen by my clumsy words. From the well-planned colourful old river-side buildings to thousands of quirky cafes and bars.. we were kept out of our beautiful Soldermalm pensionat (apartment) for most of the time. The there's the awesome Palace, Nobel Prize Museum, and massive Open Air Swedish traditional life museum/park. And they had those cool bicycle spots where you get a card and swipe it to ride a bike for 3 hours, then put it back somewhere else and get another one when you need to.. for like $20 for half a year something like that. No, Ikea isn't the only genius thing to come out of Sweden. Whether it's enjoying oldschool jazz at Stampen in the well-preserved part of town, munching on biologique (organic) patries complete with seaweed, or just riding around the river ways checking out coulourful boats, Stockholm has won our hearts.
