Swedes in NY

Great city!

I am off to NYC this coming weekend!

Looking forward to being in the Big Apple!

Don't miss Popburger!

And, if you are an espresso addict like myself, DON'T waste your caffeine intake at Starbucks. There are lots of small espresso bars around.

One of the best espresso's - New York University bookstore (726 Broadway).

You have written -"Sweden just seems - small-scale, uniform and predictable (and boring!)." Sweden for me is beautiful, calm, full of friendly people and everything you want except beeing boring. When I was in Stockholm and then in Linkoping I have had the same impression. Whats more - the weather had been unexpectedly warm - my second time I was in June and I had got quite nice suntan. I hope I will be able to visit your country once again. I still have the beautiful landscapes of middle Sweden before my eyes. Best wishes and have a good time in Big Apple!

Maybe I was too hard on Sweden - but I just felt the great contrast between Stockholm and NY.

Sweden is a great country in many ways and I have not plans to emigrate

But, we are just such a tiny and uniform spot on the complex world map.

Yes, we all feel at first sight there's was better than ours. But we realise that it is not true

once we stay longer than a holiday
