While we had grown accustomed to living in our 600 square feet apartment in the suburbs of Stockholm, we couldn't refuse when Skanska offered us a bigger apartment in the middle of Stockholm. Our new apartment is located in the neighborhood of Vasatan and is only a 10 minute walk from the Odenplan T-Bana station.

Moving to the new apartment wasn't as easy as I though it would be. While we came with only six suitcases, we have acquired more belongings than I had realized. Also, we had to move everything a suitcase load at time, take a bus, two subway trains, and a 10 minute walk from the station. Luckily, we have some great friends who helped us. For the final load, we called a taxi as we weren't going to move a crib by public transportation!

Our new address is Frejgatan 24 and our apartment is on the third floor (which is the American fourth floor). It's a large apartment, especially for being in the middle of the city. We now have two bedrooms and lots of space for Belle to run around. She loves to drive her Minnie Car around the apartment.

Notice the shoe rack? It's a must in every Swedish home as it is customary to remove your shoes when entering some one's home (and even some businesses!). I always have cute socks on now! ;)

We are loving our new space and being so close to everything. It's also been fun having two experiences while we are here- suburbs and city living.
