Stockholm, my new love affair.

Swedish House Mafia.

I was in Stockholm for a couple of days. On Saturday we saw Swedish House Mafia, "one last tour". We'll definitely see them again, don't you think? Don't believe this is the end for them since they have so much more to deliver. Anyway. The concert was soooo good, had goosebumps all over.

Elevador de Santa Justa

We were walking around in the city, right next to the big Rossio square into the Rua Aurea. To the left was the famous Elevador de Santa Justa, a Neo-Gothic decorated built at the beginning of the 20th century by an apprentice of Gustave Eiffel. The elevator was designed to transport Lisboetas from Baixa, the lower part of the city, to the Bairro Alto district above. It was kind of cool with its 150-foot height.

Wait here and I'll show you.

My first trip to Lisbon

IMG_1276_zps227d0a15IMG_1280_zps12a3df7cIMG_1288_zps27feb13eIMG_1299_zps36a64409IMG_1306_zpsab54fc90
The flight to Lisboa went well. When we arrived we took a small Mercedes taxi. It was black and so shiny! Who knows maybe it came straight from the factory. The driver, a deeply tanned old man with a charming smile (who reminded me of my grandfather), looked at me in the mirror. ”Você é de Portugal?”, “I’m swedish” I replied with a smile. Then he looked at my sister, "I'm also from Sweden, we are sisters" she said. He looked at us suspiciously. "Sisters? From Sweden?" I explained that my dad was from Chile and half portuguese and my mum from Chile, but that I was borned and raised in Sweden. “Congratulations!” he said. “Then you are a little portuguese. Welcome to your new capital city”.

“For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move”

At this moment I find myself at the airport in Copenhagen. My flight to Lisbon is soon going. It'll be a quick visit. See you on Tuesday. Have a nice weekend!
