Lots of universities so young demographics

It's really depressing here, mainly because there's no jobs, the city is crumbling, and nobody here is happy, (plus there's clouds 98% of the time from november to apri) but you said it, it has a comfy homely feel, so even though I may leave, I'll always consider here home.

it's not that bad. Hasn't snowed in over a year. This is the view you get while snowboarding on the mountains at night.

I like the food, the geographical features, and how there's always something to do out here, but I don't know if I'll get to call this place home for any longer. It's getting way too expensive here.

What are some nice cities here then? Quebec looks like it has all the nice cities, but Vancouver's nothing special and I'd genuinely rather live in Coventry than Victoria

I lived in something like that in Beijing. It was pretty OK except for my psycho roommate. If I'd been in any other apartment but that one I'd probably have loved it. Nice community atmosphere.

Oh, and another one across town that was a total shithole. The electricity was so bad that some appliances wouldn't work, and it was probably a fire hazard. We moved out when someone bought the apartment for 2.4 million RMB.

There was another one that you might call a commieblock. Looked like one, at least. But it was really high-quality construction because it was built for PLA officers (one of whom was subletting).

Kalmar Castle

From Wikipedia:
During the twelfth century a round defensive tower was built on Kalmarsund and a harbour constructed. At the end of the thirteenth century King Magnus Ladulås had a new fortress built with a curtain wall, round corner towers and two square gatehouses surrounding the original tower. Located near the site of Kalmar's medieval harbor, it has played a crucial part in Swedish history since its initial construction as a fortified tower in the 12th century.

One of the most significant political events in Scandinavia took place at Kalmar Castle in 1397, when the Kalmar Union was formed - a union of Denmark, Norway and Sweden (including Finland), organized by Queen Margaret I of Denmark. During the Swedish rebellion against Denmark in 1520, the fortress was commanded by Anna Eriksdotter (Bielke), who at the death of her spouse, Johan Månsson Natt och Dag, in the middle of the rebellion against Denmark in 1520, took control over his fiefs and defended Kalmar against Denmark.[2]

The fortress was improved during the 16th century under the direction of King Gustav I and his sons King Eric XIV and King John III, who turned the medieval fortress into a castle fit for a renaissance king. Kalmar Castle suffered heavy damage during the Kalmar War of 1611-13 and was badly damaged by a fire in 1642. Repairs were begun but from the end of the seventeenth century the castle was allowed to fall into disrepair.
