Some of the staff are honestly so cheeky! Questioned why my friend (female) was buying some magic…read morethe gathering cards and insulted her by implying she was ''just buying her way in'' to the game! I have nothing to say about the staff given I don't spend money on them finding them rather overpriced in comparison to other stores and have only went with friends. Staff were polite but the basement was unhygenic even for nerd-store standards! I'm not sure if the courtesy is to clean up after yourself but when you pay for entry you expect the staff to atleast pick up trash.

Stunning collection of art, furniture, weapons and baroque style rooms in a great location. There's…read moreeven a beautiful courtyard area where you can grab a cocktail after if you come in the evening like we did! Check this out - I enjoyed this museum more than the royal palace as there are English cards in each room with wonderful explanations of how the rooms were used and a glimpse into the family's life. Also it is free! So stay 10 min or hours.

The museum is housed in a historical building in central Stockholm and faces Berzelii Park. The…read morehouse used to belong to the Count and Countess von Hallwyl, but was donated to the state in 1920s. The museum takes you back in time to late 19th century and strikes its visitors with opulence and glitter of the rich aristocratic family. Impressive collection of paintings, furniture, China, and weaponry is displayed in rooms of grand nature decorated in various styles. An window into a private life of aristocracy! It's free to attend, but you would have to pay 70 SEK for a guided tour. Tour will also get you an access into certain rooms closed for general public.

We were at the centre for an Easter Egg hunt with the family. There were lots of crafts, food and…read morefika. The event was well organized and wonderful. We still can't believe it was free of charge. The centre is great at supporting expats and welcoming them into Sweden. Lots of very useful information can be found through the centre. They also offer language classes and networking mixers. I have lived in Sweden for almost 9 years but have just found out about the centre. Worth a look if you are an expat trying to find your way in Sweden.

Well this place is weird…read more.... I'm a second-hand aficionado. I think it's a blast to scavenge among the riff-raff for true gems. Unfortunately, this is mostly riff-raff. (I cannot speak for the cafe as I did not try it; this is just for the shop.) The staff gave me weird looks when I came in, and eyed my transparent grocery bag either as though they wanted my wrap or they thought I might try to steal something by putting it under my salad... The shop is very strangely organized - or, better put, seemingly not organized at all. And the pricing is super confusing. Most items don't have tags on them. There is a price list, with small text, posted on a wall near the cash register, and the employees tell people to refer to that - after they ask for the price. The price scheme itself was quite strange. All normal-length dresses (not maxis) were 80 kronor. That would have been a decent price for some of them, but definitely not all. Many of the dresses were H&M or other worn-out budget items which would have been 50kr at another shop - but they all went under the 80 umbrella here. Maxis were something like 120kr. The shop is dark and feels a bit weird, and they don't seem selective at all - clothes, books, and furniture all looked pretty worn out. I've heard the cafe is decent, and I am all for helping charity, but I wouldn't go here for second-hand shopping.
