Vaxholm

A beautiful island in the Stockholm’s Archipelago: The ticket that you need from Stockholm to Vaxholm is for AB zone (54 sek), so you will pay 108 sek for the public transport. The tickets cannot be bought from the driver. I used the “SL – Journey planner and tickets application” to buy tickets on demand. The application is incredible easy to use, it’s in english and you can see a countdown with the availability of...

Mobile Internet connection in Sweden

I can live long without food, but water and Internet are for me a must. So first thing after arriving in Stockholm was to find a sim card with data traffic. I did before some reasearch, and I found that Telia are the oldest in Sweden and they have the best coverage, including outside big cities; this was for me a very important point, because I plan to spend some days at the country side and a reliable Internet connection is critical. Telenor...

The guy: “27 F at the window, that is my place” The girl (smilling cute): “You let me stay at the window”. The guy: “OK, you stay at the window” The Force is strong with that one.

The Harz mountains in the center of Germany are probably not tall, but for sure they are incredible beautiful. I followed the following path along the Bode river:One highlight of the trip was Hexentanzplatz (a very nice place above the world, full of bad and ugly witches 🙂 ).After 13 km and a lot of pictures I declared myself a very happy “hiker”. Please don’t make my mistakes: take some good trail shoes,...

Longest german word found so far – 91 characters

Since some time I am trying to find the longest german word. From my point of view, germans like details and are very specific when they describe a situation. The word that is the longest one that I found so far is: Hottentottenstottertrottelmutterattentäterlattengitterwetterkottenbeutelrattenfangprämie 91 characters. Even if this word is not used normally and I am sure it was created just for fun, to show how cool and flexible  german...
