Snow confusion in Stockholm

firstsnow-3One would think that, like in Helsinki, snowfall in Stockholm would equal much shoveling and careful driving. But snowfall in Stockholm always equals chaos. Roads close, schools close, trains won’t run, and even this time the subway (?!) did not run properly.

Welcome to Sweden, where modern society has very quickly forgotten how things used to be before climate change. Where nobody skis to work anymore – and thus everything stops when the snow comes. firstsnow-2(Stockholm, Sweden; November 2016)

    Wish I was there. In front of a fireplace with a cup of hot chocolate.
