The city is full of statues everywhere you look. Each one represents different facets of Karlstad's history and culture. This statue, called the "Goddess of Peace", stands in the city center. It represents a peaceful split between Norway and Sweden in 1905. She holds a broken sword in her hands with her right foot on top of....
... a severed head. Emma told me this statue has been voted the ugliest statue in the country. City planners dressed it in the colors of Melodifestivalen. Just to be festive.
A beautiful day in the city
It's not only a semla, it's a semla cake! It was the size of my head. I was sorely tempted to buy it.
Hipsters live in Sweden too.
