Uppsala is a nice and cosy town - Miranda called that Barbie land, mainly and surprisingly not in regard to the blondes, but to the way everything seems to function - clean, routine, effective and without any major braveness in deciding to show differences and disappreciation for the society as a whole. We have already been discussing Foucault and his concept of governmentality here ;-).
I live in a student-village called Lilla Sunnersta, about 6 km south of the city centre. Bikes are definetly needed here and it is - at least still during these temperatures - a nice and easy 20 minutes ride... but I will update you on the problems concerning slight misuse of alcohol and low temperatures and the use of a bike at any given moment in future.
The student village has pretty mixed inhabitants, disregarding the overwhelming presense of german folks around. There are even cats and dogs, children and the elderly...
