Finally found the strength to write something. It's been two weeks since I came back from Stockholm, I have no desire to return to reality, I want to preserve at least a grain of that state, mood received from the trip To say that I experienced a culture shock is to say nothing. It was a daily joy of meeting a fantastic city, the beauty of which is not in ostentatious luxury and multicolor, but in strict simplicity and convenience, the whole stay there is an endless carefree holiday, like a return to childhood. I answered myself the question that has long tormented me, why Sweden ranks among the first places in terms of happiness: every little thing, detail is arranged with care for a person, his convenience and comfort, and this is felt in everything. But the face of the city is the people. The first thing you notice is the exceptional politeness. Whoever I approached with any question, the first thing was a smile, an obligatory smile, I caught myself thinking that I had started smiling myself... The second thing that catches my eye is how many people do sports, people are in good physical shape, fit. I read that during the slave trade, there were no Swedes - slaves, because they did not surrender, preferring death. That's how I saw the Swedes - self-confident, independent. What a pity that I will hardly be able to visit there again, to feel this freedom, this reality of a completely different life, how I envy you!
Thank you, Yulia, for such a wonderful message! I’m really happy to hear that you had such a great experience in Stockholm. You mentioned you might not be able to visit again-what’s holding you back? I hope you get a chance to return someday. If you need any help or advice, I’d be happy to help!🤗❤️
@@walkingstockholm Thank you, Scandi, for your kindness! The thought that I will not experience this again is unbearable even now, after only two weeks of returning. That is why I am making a new dream for myself, which will come true someday. I haven't written anything about my exploration of Stockholm at all. I've repeated several of your routes thanks to you, it felt like I've known all the places for a long time. Thank you for doing this wonderful work!😊❤
