In almost every city most of the interesting stuff seems to happen in the suburbs. So I decided to get on the train and leave the inner city. And return with a full shopping bag as my goal.
First I decided to go south and visit Kungens Kurva (Swedish for King’s Corner, named after king Gustaf V who crashed his Cadillac in this particular corner after a hunting session in 1946). Kungens Kurva is located in Skärholmen and you take the underground’s green line to get here. Here you can visit the first IKEA in the world and Heron City (a big mall including the gigantic home electronic chain Media Markt, movie theatres, food courts and so on). I filled up my yellow IKEA bag with usual cheap classics such as tea lights and candleholders. Then I headed north. To Kista Galleria. A really nice mall including lots of nice cafés, foodcourts, movie theatres, hair salons, pedicure salons, clothing stores and if you’re in to shoes (I can tell you I am) this is the place to be. There are shoes, shoes and even more shoes in various price ranges. After buying three pairs of shoes I went back to the underground station (located in the mall, perfect if you don’t want to mess up your hair if it’s rainy outside) and went back to the city. But I can tell you; the suburbs of Stockholm are the place to be if you’re a shoppaholic!

It might not be the most stylish artefact I have been known to carry, but at least it’s Swedish design in its most true shape and colours. Let me tell you about the other day: In a single bag-carrying-shopping-spree I managed to first visit every store there is in
