Day 19 - Sightseeing in Eskilstuna

Eskilstuna is a small city (about 100.00 inhabitants?). It's name comes from the Anglo-Saxon monk Saint Eskil. Its a nice and calm city and here I was able to look more at the Swedish way of leaving (and surviving this days where at about 4/4.30 PM the light fades away).








At this point I was still a couch surfing virgin :) but was lucky with my host. Meeting Linda was a nice experience. Since we were two strangers there was lack of comfort in the first day but I'm sure we overcome that without difficulty.

We went toghether to the supermarket and following my advice we bough dinner. I was told where things were in the kitchen and cooked a Spaghetti Bolognese my way (lots of onions and not that much tomato). It was a nice feeling to cook in an unknown kitchen for an unknown friend :)








I was able to ride heavy old machines hehe :)

Interestingly, same games that are very common to play outdoors in the southern countries here are played inside. Guess why ? :P This is the most played sport in Marsellie, for example.


One of the traditional dishes here is a onion soap and pancakes. I had to have it :)



In the end of the day we had some drinks at a local bar (nice music by the way).


Then we went home and talked for long hours. We saw some Japanese manga series. I think we only stopped when one of us noticed it were 6AM already .. ups. I must say I only had apple juice all the night long. I don't want to be rude but some others have to start thinking on their health. Living like this won't be good. Check the trash can for example:
