  “ Gothenburg is a great city and in many ways it can be compared with Stockholm. It is just a fraction smaller;) But I really liked the city!

  “ It is the second best swedish city to party in! People are fun and talkative. There are a lot of great clubs at the avenue (Kungsportsavenyn) though the age limits are high and it can be difficult to get in if you are under 20.

  “ It's kind of a small town, but there are a lot of nice places to go out and see live music. Like Pustervik, Sticky Fingers and Hendriksberg. It's also a cool city for shopping. A lot of shoe, clothes and recordstores. You can do some sightseeing by boat. But that starts around… more june, so if you go before june it can be boring sometimes.close
