we took a ferry from tallinn to stockholm where we stayed for a long weekend before heading to the farm. stockholm was a really great city. its really clean, open, vegetarian-friendly and not nearly as cloaked in furs as st. petersburg. it was pretty expensive. 8 bucks for a crappy beer on tap and 10 for broccoli soup meant that we only went out once and spent the rest of our time cooking at the hostel or just walking around town.
we didn’t make it to any museums but we did take a little boat tour of the archipelago. did you know that the stockholm archipelago is made up of some 24,000 islands? neither did i. we also went to a vegan grocery store. twice. after having been in russia for two months where vegetarian means that fish and beef broth are okay we were quite delighted to have some mock meats again! exciting huh?
anyhow, we’re on our little farm now not to far from stockholm. here they produce loads of apple products and sell them in their shop. its been really nice being here but i’ll fill you in a bit more next time. check out some new pictures on my flickr page, though, to catch a glimpse!
