Welcome to my Sweden page.
I visited Stockholm and the 24,000 islands of the skärgård (archipelagos) in the summer of 2001. I encountered friendly people, interesting cultures, and some not-so-interesting foods...
$ - US$1 = 9.3 Swedish Kronors
The best and worst of Sweden. Note that this is my personal opinion and I only had limited exposure to the country. If there are any other categories you would like me to list, please send me an email.
| Places to eat (on a backpacker's budget): | Best: It's expensive everywhere. Buy from large supermarkets like Rimi, a national chain.
Worst: Pickled raw fish - stay away from it! |
| Hostel: | The hostel in Grinda - although other ones in Stockholm are supposed to be very nice. |
| Activity: | Best: Biking through Stockholm
Worst: None experienced. |
| Scenery: | Best: Ferry ride through various islands in the skärgård (archipelagos). |
| Chilling Out:: | Best: Hanging out on the islands in the skärgård (archipelagos). |
| Danger: | Crazy Swedish woman feeding you raw pickeled fish... :) |
