    Fight the urge to stay forever, it's such a great city. Totally jealous.

    If you get captured by Liberals and can't escape for a long time, don't ever forget you're a wingnut no matter how much Chomsky they read to you.

    Scream at them about the evils of government funded, decentralized universal health care.
    Go to the ABBA museum.

    Great city to rent a bicycle and explore. That's what I did.

    Cower in your hotel room so you don't get infected by the soshulizummm.

    When I have some time I will try to give you some more things to do, see but off the top of my head definitely check out Gamla Stan (old town) and the Vasa museum. Eat salmon as much as possible and without a doubt have toast skagen (it's a shrimp salad) and löjrom (roe).

    Do you know what part of town you are staying?

    Prepare to be cold! But what are you looking for?

    Food: I would recommend Folkets Kebab on Folkkungagatan. It is like cheap Falafel swedish style. More expensive...Vitlök/Bröderna Olsson. Same street.

    Do you want to go party? Well if you want to drink at a bar/club it is really expensive. I can give you some recommendations for bars or clubs (if you are into that) just let me know what you are looking for.

    Believe it or not, there's actually a really good Mexican restaurant in Stockholm (I know, I was skeptical at first, too).

    It's called La Neta.
