Hello Geert and thanks so much for your friendship. I am pretty hooked on sweden since discovering at Uni that its people get involved with how their country is governed. In the UK right now we are following sweden's education programme. Meantime i stumble on this amazing site and find its members just terrific. I wonder what Bekinge is like that you mention and is Skane near malmo and does Gorinchem give you a homeland of coastland or country. I hope to take my first to sweden next summer 2011. I have as part of a 9 country european tour spent 2 days in Amsterdam, when the weather was fab, but that is Holland is it not and you are the Netherlads am i right. Thanks again for your friendship and I hoep you have lovely weather at the moment like the UK, best wishes, chris

hey geert! as you have realised i really like your pictures - i think that we do like very similar things, nice to meet you ;-) take care and have a nice evening! jan :)

Important information: the problem with uploading new profile photos should now be fixed. We're very sorry for the frustration this has caused. The problem occured together with an update of the CoS dynamic page titles.

(Message to all members) CommunityOfSweden.com has gotten it's biggest update so far: Groups! Anyone can create a group and other members can then join this group and discuss the group's subject and upload relevant photos. A group can be about a city, an activity, perhaps a swedish musician or something else. You decide! You'll find the new Groups section in the top navigation. Check it out and enjoy! :)

The new photos are so nice. Amazing colors. Glad you are enjoying the summer.
