Göteborg aka: Gothenburg

I will go to live in Göteborg next year. I want to live in another country for some time… don’t know how much, I just want to know how does it feel to start a life alone in a foreign place. And I decided that it will be in Göteborg. Why? I don’t really know, but I was there last year for a few days at the end of a long trip, and I felt so peaceful there, the city is nice, people is nice, and also it’s near Oslo or Copenhagen, two cities I also liked very much.

I love this city… just because :)

Pick up your new Volvo and then take the overnight ferry to Hamburg for the drive to lunch in Berlin!

i always knew jen lekman was from here, he says it in the first line of maple leaves. then today i happened to realise nikola sarcevic (~millencolin:)) also resides here. .. and then, i was looking for live recordings of josé gonzález- heartbeats, and foung out he also lives here!!! so i obviously must have to go there if it’s good enough for my three favourite music men. this can’t be a cooincidence. what goes on in the water of gothenburg??

I thought that it was one of the most beautiful and scenic places I have seen. The people I met are also one of the most friendly people.

Also I tasted the best shrimp sandwich here!

Wow, just come back from a few days in Gothenburg. It was warmer and sunnier than both Liverpool and London, and I fell in love with the place. The air was cleaner, the people friendlier, the lakes and forest just outside were breathtaking. The beutiful islands where cars are not allowed and people travel by petrol driven tricycles were amazing, The trams ran on time to the second. The girls were stunning and the beer wasn’t as expensive as I was led to believe. Of all the places I have been in my life this is where I would like to live. (My friends who live there said it gets colder in the winter though and work is hard to find).

I am going there in a few weeks to see some friends, any tips on what to see or do?

It was between Christmas and New Year’s. The weather was grey and gloomy and I didn’t actually see much.

So I must go there again!

I visited Goteborg in March 2006 when i went to visit my wee friend Lina (we met the summer before in New Zealand). It was a fantasitc week and Lina showed me lots of the sunny sights in and around Goteborg. I loved that at this time of the year everything was snowy and frozen and it was absolutely beautiful! I can’t wait to go back :D

I went here as a kid. would love to return
