Hey all, Not sure if this is right place to post, but I was hoping some of you might have an answer for me. I'll be staying Stockholm, Sweden for a few days this week and I really need to get my digital SLR cameras sensor cleaned.
Does anyone know where I could get this done in Stockholm and for how much? Do the general photo/camera stores do it, or is it only done in some camera maintenance places?
Thanks in advance, Anna

I'm planning a short(ish) trip to Latvia and Lithuania and was wondering if anyone has any advice if it is safe for me as a lone female traveller?
I'm not so concerned about the capitals, Vilnius and Riga but what about in less touristy places?
And what about train travel? I read somewhere that train travel in Latvia and Lithuania is not so great.. And maybe not recommended for women travelling alone. Does anyone have any experiences of this? I'll mostly be using the bus on my trip but for one route I only found a train service.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello everyone!
My 22nd birthday is up and coming this July, and I'm planning on escaping home for that occassion. My plan is to take a Scanrail pass for 21 days, and most of that time I would be spending in Norway.
I have a first draft of my planned itinerary, and would very much appreciate all help and tips, any comments on my planned route. Like I said, I'm mostly interested in exploring Norway, but any recommendations for Sweden, that won't take me too far off my route are appreciated. And I should probably mention Finland is my home country, so I won't be making any stops there on this trip.
Also, while I do want to experience some city life on this trip, I'm mostly interested in staying in smaller, more remote places, and am interested in activities such as hiking, biking and canoeing.. (Mostly hiking, I suppose, for budget reasons!)
Day 1 - Overnight train Helsinki-Kemi, bus to Luleå, Sweden 2 - Luleä 3 - Narvik, Norway 4 - Stamsund (Lofoten Islands) 5 - Stamsund 6 - Stamsund 7 - Å (Lofoten Islands) 8 - Å 9 - Å
(Are there any other places you'd recommend on the Lofoten Islands? Should I spend less/more time there? Where to go to avoid the worst tourist traps?)
10 - Bodo 11 - overnight train Bodo-Trondheim 12 - Trondheim 13 - Hellesylt 14 - Hellesylt
(The reason I want to stay in Hellesylt is I want to see Geirangerfjord and I thought this would be a good place for budget accommodation nearby. Any other suggestions?)
15 - Bergen 16 - Bergen
(More/less time for Bergen?)
17 - Stavanger 18 - Stavanger
(For visiting Lysefjord/Preikestolen. Would I be better off staying somewhere else though?)
19 - Oslo 20 - Stockholm 21 - Ferry from Stockholm to Helsinki aka home!
Thanks a lot in advance for any help!
Anna
