A review of this place: The city of my birth — 1 year ago
The good: the old bits are beautiful. The Hermitage, the parks, the suburbs. In the summer, daylight goes on forever. Stockholm is right across the sea.
The bad: the crime, the smells, the poverty.
The ugly: see above.
I spent the first thirteen years of my life there. I do not want to go back. But if you’ve never been, you should give it a try…if you dare.
