I'm a Indian woman making plans to travel to Gothenburg this June. Since I've always been in love with Swedish music and culture, I wanted to visit the country at least once and make some friends. I work as an English teacher in an international school in Mumbai. I'm just looking for friends in general ... guys and girls. Wanted to explore Gothenburg with someone I can feel comfortable with. What do you work as in Sweden? Are you outgoing? Pls read my profile and write to me at malhotra.maria[at]gmail.com if you'd like to correspond.
Warm regards,
Rohini

Goteborg (Guthenburg) is a cosy town , it is on the same side of Sweden which faces Norway & Denmark. The capital of Norway, Oslo, is a 4 hour train journey away, and Stockholm is around the same.
In Goteborg you could stroll the main road called Avenuen, which is gradually ascends up to a small square & statute at the top.
There are the cosy trams in Goteborg, there is a botanical gardens and a few things to see here & there, but it is not really a tourist spot - Stockholm is better known. Sweden is not mountanious like Norway, so you won't find that kind of sceneries, however you are interested in music & culture - and I am sure Sweden beats Norway on that one.
Goteborg is the 2nd largest city , and I have been there once, it was quite nice.
