Sweden is a small country with great persons
As I know more I will update this lens
In Sweden we are about 9 million inhabitants. Can you imagine that so many famous persons have come out of Sweden!
I have been in IKEA storhouses all over the world and everywhere they look the same. I have bought Swedish food and furniture called by Swedish names:)
IKEA - we all love Ingvar Kamprads ikea
Furniture and small things as well
IKEA started 1943 as a small business in a little house. The idea was that the purchaser had to put together the furniture to save money and shipping fees. It was an instant success!
All the furniture in IKEA have Swedish names like Billy, Malm or Sultan. The name they keep where ever in the world they are sold. The meassures are Swedish. Two meter long beds for example. I love them. IKEA has quality as well as cheaper things. The choice is only your wallet´s.....
Fetching new data from eBay now... please stand byABBA is singing to the Queen of Sweden Silvia

Hello Irene Marie! You know we just met a woman, this past weekend while in St. Augustine visiting a winery for a winetasting, that was born in Sweden. Her husband was the captain of the USS Cubera! A most interesting couple. My hubby had just been to Sweden/Denmark for a business trip. My stepfather was Norwegian, so I'd love to plan a trip to Sweden, Denmark, Norway some day. Thanks for inviting me to visit your lens. Posted June 12, 2008 |
