Have you ever wondered how we in Stockholm survive the long dark winters? We bring artificial light into our lives. Winters in Stockholm are not only cold and dark - they are romantic as well. I believe that Swedes use more tea-lights and candles than any other country in the world. A trip to Stockholm in the next few days will convince you. During this upcomming weekend we light up our homes with the electric cosy advent-candleholders and await the arrival of Lucia.  You will find her in almost every home singing for the family, bringing fresh coffee and saffron buns in the morning, she is seen at the office, on the underground, on television, in churches and on several other locations during the day. Stockholms own Lucia is beeing crowned at Skansen on december 1.
