From Gothenburg, with love

January 18, 2007

This is a panoramic photo taken from my “new” office in a central area of Gothenburg. If you click on it you can download the high resolution version and zoom in on the details. It is a tad on the big side as far as image downloads go, so be prepared to wait.

The keener observers among you may notice you can’t spot a single construction crane on sight. Feast your eyes on it. We may be observing one of the last few holdouts of planned economy on the Western world. No wonder it is so hard to find a single good apartment in this city. If you are lucky enough to track one that pleases you, you then must outbid several other candidates in a process just begging to be abused by the less honorable. Prices are outrageous. And I am not even talking about buying new.

What a crock!!!
