once arrived in Kiruna, the quest for our hostel can start. I remember something about a "Lägenhetshotell", which in fact just means apartment hotel. No phone number, no address. Perfect preparation. Luckily in the train station I can find a leaflet about the Kiruna Lägenhetshotell Rumservice. Aha, Lägenhetshotell, that's the one we need. A nice walk away from the station, we reach the promised land. No one home, reception closed. Strange. Ring the doorbell , strange people coming out. Hm. Maybe this is not the one we need. Gullriset. Could this be our hostel? I suddenly remember Gullriset. Great. After we asked some Swedes, we start our walk to Gullriset Lägenhetshotell. Of course at the other side of the city. A bit tired, we reach our room. A nice two-room apartment with kitchen, at a very low price. Perfect for us, poor students. A real shower: what a glorious feeling. After we prepared a nice meal, we go into the city center. Kiruna is an industrial city and not the most beautiful one I've ever seen, but still worth a walk. The snow and lit up ice sculptures create a nice atmosphere and the perfect place for some pictures.
