A wonderful wise question

But maybe some Swedes will read it

And how do I get from there to the city center or to the tennis hall (or is the hall in the center

)? Is it far? Are taxis or buses expensive?

Please don't get a taxi. It's very expensive.

It's in between Stockholm and Uppsala in the north of Stockholm and buses run into Stockholm centre. There is an express train called the Arlanda Express and that's 380 kronor return.

380... I wonder how much it is in Euro... You know that I'm not in world's most convenient situation at this moment with this whole Stockholm... but decided to go anyway. I wonder how much I should take with me for the accomodation.

I'd go hitchhiking but it's not safe for a young girl alone.

I have been to Sweden many times, but I used the train to get to Stockholm, this is for Nathaliia and not me.

Nathaliia · 10-07-2006, 01:29 PM

Okay, I checked Swedish currency... 380 = should be around 140 PLN... robbery

I pay it for 2 weeks of living in my dormitory with electricity and water...

As I said take the bus. As for accomodation, how much are you willing to spend?

Hmm, I haven't thought of costs of accomodation, most eagerly I'd just leave the bag at somebody's friendly and go out at nights to not disturb (a little bag shouldn't disturb though). But since I don't have friends in Stockholm I'll have to find something anyway.

I estimate I can take 300 Euro (however it is counted in KRN) ... I wouldn't want to spend all that much but I guess I'll have to.

Thanks for all the help

How long are you staying for and when are you leaving? You don't have much stuff then that is good.

Once you have told me that, then I will tell you how to get to the venue.

So I'm coming Tuesday night (7.30 p.m.) and the departure is Saturday 3.40 p.m.

I'll have just one average bag, needless to take all the clothes, shoes etc....

Alright, so you have 3 nights and take the bus from Arlanda to Stockholm. It shouldn't be too hard to find something, but I will find some links for you. When I was stayed there I stayed with friends or at a backpackers place.

This is in the old town in Stockholm and it costs 50 Euro a night.

If you don't want to spend too much and are not picky on accommodation.

Stayed in a youth hostel myself in Luxembourg, a room with six beds. Was a very good, clean, new hostel and paid only €19 a night. Breakfast was crap, but you got your own shower. Stayed there three nights and the third night I only shared the room with my friend. The first night, however, I arrived at like 23:00 on a Friday night and everyone was already sleeping

And one man was snoring so loudly

Had never witnessed someone snore like that before. See, hostels are good for unique experiences

**Action Jackson** · 10-07-2006, 01:56 PM

This one is from the same group and right near the station as well.

But it's really cheap.
