Yesterday I was in Knivsta, the little town just outside Uppsala and close to the main airport of Sweden, Arlanda.
The first photo is of the municipal building and the municipal library, open a saturday. There you can borrow books and films and surf on the net.
And this photo is of a small shopping street with a Christmas tree. And a lot of snow.
I live in Sweden and write for a living, as a journalist and writer. In this blog I talk about my mother Gunvor's work as an artist, my travel around the world and a lot more.

Summer in Uppsala
Again, I wish you all a happy new 2012!
As you may now by now, vinter is not my favorite time of the year. So I will start this year with som summer photos from Uppsala. In the picture abowe you can se the Fyrisån, the small but beautiful river of Uppsala.
Uppsala is the fourth largest city of Sweden and is just 67 km north of Stockholm, it is also the seat of the Archbishop of the Church of Sweden. You can se the big cathedral in this picture.
Uppsala University is very old, the oldest one in the country, founded in 1447. Here you can see Carolina Rediviva, the main building of the university library.
Here is a picture of the commercial center of Uppsala, it has plenty of nice shops and restaurants.
What I will say, it is well worth a visit!
