Amanda, Matyas and Absinthe in Stockholm
Reprising my role of Sven the Swedish Tour Guide for a fourth or fifth time.
Friends from my old work – Amanda (now in London) and Matyas (just bumming around Europe for a few months) came over for a visit.
Thanks to Sweden’s mildest-in-250-years Winter, we got rain instead of snow. But as Amanda said, “This city’s beautiful no matter how bad the weather is”.

And to warm us up after a chilly day walking around the town, nothing beats a shot of flaming Absinthe (actually, quite a few things probably do beat a shot of flaming Absinthe – once you get past the novelty of it all, it kinda tastes like crap… especially the cheap bottle I picked up in Prague last year).
