Stockholm Part I

I'm just going to go ahead and state the obvious. Stockholm, Sweden is amazing. Taking a trip there at the end of October risks cold, grey weather. Thankfully, we lucked out! I might have been a little crazy, but I was walking around without a jacket or gloves on for the entire first two days while everyone else was bundled up in layers. Stockholm is a great city for walking, as you can walk anywhere and everywhere easily and within about 30 minutes. The people here are really friendly and most speak English incredibly well. 

I'll explain why in my next post, but I am extremely tired and am about to completely crash in my own bed! Here are a few pictures to start, I'll be back with details of my trip and some of the foods I ate tomorrow. Until then, I'm in desperate need of sleep after being homeless for a night. :D  
Traveling companions: Sébastien, Cody, Christy, Mallory, Nathan, Ashley, Ali, and Misha
The most expensive street in town - worth every Swedish kroon
My roommates and  I 
The Royal Apartments
The Aussie's we met on the archipelago boat tour: Callan, Sean, Melissa, and Luke
The Fashion Museum and the Vasa Museum
Elio, the Swiss-Italian staying in our hostel 
In Gamla Stan near the Nobel Museum 
CRAZY 16 year old Swedish girls we met in the street
The Vasa War Ship - sank right after setting sail on it's maiden voyage in 1628 and was raised 333 years later

Bisous,

  6. It's really very complicated in this full of activity life to listen news on Television, therefore I simply use world wide web for that reason, and obtain the newest information.
