So I moved away from the “Land of ice, fire and fish” and while I’m happy with the move, I’m not so pleased with having to give up my nifty location description. I liked how it combined my lurve for “The Song of Ice and Fire” and the fact that Iceland actually is the land of ice, fire and fish. But what is Sweden? I’ve got absolutely nothing ☹ Which is why I turn to you guys for help. Help me come up with a brand spanking new cool location description. Pretty please? ---
