Great video about Sweden! I just can't wait to go there. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with an issue.I will be in Sweden for 4 months for an internship and I read a lot about this country as I am planning on traveling and seeing the best of it:
1. I was wondering if someone could tell me more about the city cards they offer for tourists? Is it more convenient to buy these? Or it's just a trick to attract tourists?
2. Is is true that I cannot use a hair drier? It's just I am using it quite often and what should I do if I can't use it anymore? |

Of course you can use a hair dryer, but the question i sif your hairdryer has the correct power (?) and you might need a converter... There are some good city cards depending on which city you want to visit and they are always cheaper than paying for every single buss or train you take (if it isn't just one or 2 times) it is hard to know exactly what to answer since you didn't specify where you are going to.. But in stockholm they have www.stockholmtown.com and in gothenburg they have www.goteborg.com.. there you should find some information about the 2 biggest cities in sweden... /Madeleine |

u can use hairdryer if it has two pluggs as it is standard here... voltage i dont know...
its a matter of how much u want to do in sweden, if it is profitable to buy the card or not. i dont go to museums and stuff like that when i travel so for me, i wouldnt profit at all. |

The citycard is the best way to get around. It will cost you a lot to pay cash for each time you travel since a ticket you buy is only for 1 hour, then you have to pay a new one. The city card is absolutely no trick.
And about the hairdrier; buy one for a small price if the plug-in is different from Poland.
Here is the standard for Sweden =)) :

Sorry yeah I forgot to mention I am heading to Stockhlom but I am planning on visiting other cities as well and yeah Goteborg is also one of them. Which Type of Electrical Outlet is Used in Sweden? I read somewhere that I can buy a cheap hair drier in Sweden that would be adjustable with the power there. |

Yes I think that is the easiest way to know... I actually don't know what it would be called... but if you buy one here there shouldn't be any problem at all... you can always search for the name of the city in google and you should be able to find the information you need there... |

It is very useful to use the Citycards which they sell in Stockholm and Gothenbourg. You can save a lot of money if you buy it. Regarding the kind of electrical power we use here it is either 220 or 230 volt. You can use your hairdryer here but you might need to buy an adapter when you use an US power cable. According to me it is better if you go to Clas Ohlson (http://www.clasohlson.se/Product/StartPageProducts.aspx) when you are arriving in Stockholm and buy a cheap hairdryer there. It saves you the trouble of figuring out which kind if adapter you are going to buy.
