Going to Norway is one of the agenda my sister Julie has during her visit to Sweden. 'cruise! it would be fantastic to sail along the norwegian fjord!' Browsing through the compact travel guide about northern europe that she bought in Taiwan, she pointed the national geography standard alike photo of fjord to me.
I have heard that to sail across the Baltic sea to Finland or Estonia costs only two digits, that's why i took one catalog from the travel agency and checked the lines and costs, only to find that there is no cruise line sailling from this little town.
'It used to be several from here, but maybe the nearest is from Umeå from several years ago' said Linnéa, one of my co-worker. It is so disencouraging. Well, pros and cons to live in a little city, up north. hm... the next was to just break the news to sis.
'Oh...' That was her reaction. Disappointed of course, i feel that it's a bit devastating for anyone who is going to visit me to learn that it's simply not very travel friendly around my little city, at least not like in Stockholm, where you have easy access to a lot of facilities, as a big city should be. On the other hand, little tiny city has its own charm. I couldn't help protesting, maybe a bit protect mechanism could encourage myself to hold a positive view about my city, as i am going to live here for long.
