Mi sono sentito/a sicuro/a a camminare da solo di notte, la gente del posto è stata gentile. Alcune trappole per turisti vicino alle principali attrazioni hanno reso alcuni pasti costosi.

Bella architettura, la vita notturna è tranquilla. Non è una città per fare festa, ma musei, gallerie e bar accoglienti erano splendidi.

La varietà di cibo era minore di quanto sperassi, tanti menù simili. Ho comunque adorato il pane di segale, il pesce affumicato e le panetterie economiche.
