I have to rectify: I never spent a winter in stockholm or even in sweden. I am osed to winter in France in the alpes and this will be my first winter here and I kind of hope that it will be very cold... I know it may sound strange but I want to live a very cold winter at least once in my life. and then he wrote :
Stockholm is one of the coldest cities I know of, when it comes to people. If you don't know anyone in Stockholm, no one will ever start talking to you.>
I kind of have to agree on this one. I have spent the spring and summer in Stockholm and I still don't know any swedich people. That's true: No swedich talks to you but I guess it is certainly my fault too. I know some other expats as me but that's all. But I really like Stockholm: I can have access to a lot of cultural things(like in a lot of capitals)(concerts, film festival...) without the stress of most of the capital like London or Paris and finally :
I could never live in Stockholm and that is not because I grew up in an anti-Stockholm society, >
I understand what you mean... I grew up in an anti-Paris society... But I never lived there so I am not very sure of how awful life in Paris is... Some of my friend just moved in there and are quite happy about it. OK now I have to leave because I have an appointment to the doctor as I got cold this Week end... That's definitely true: It is damn cold in here.
