Watch out Nokia!" title="katja_sund_6" width="600" height="567" class="size-full wp-image-545" />

Today, Lund is the only remaining Swedish city where SonyEricsson mobile-phones are being developed. Major cutdowns have struck the company in 2009. Hopefully, the new line of smart-phones will bring SonyEricsson back to its feet.
Watch out Nokia!

We were at the cottage over Christmas eve. Perfect weather, but with sundown at 2PM I didn't manage to catch the rays that day. Following days were a bit grey still it was a dream for us to stay.

Jante Law. Show me a home in Sweden that do not contain a single object from IKEA. I would say that in Sweden IKEA has a symbolic part in growing up, getting a place of your own with a following nuclear family.” title=”arvid_krantz_6″ width=”600″ height=”450″ class=”size-full wp-image-529″ />

IKEA Flag ship store in Kungens Kurva, Stockholm. Ingvar Kamprad founded IKEA 1943 and is now the fifth richest person in the world. He made his fortune from stubborn, hard work and have managed to keep on the right side of infamous Swedish Jante Law. Show me a home in Sweden that do not contain a single object from IKEA. I would say that in Sweden IKEA has a symbolic part in growing up, getting a place of your own with a following nuclear family.
