There's a quite useful '''[[map]]''' ("vägkarta") which you can get at ''OKQ8'' petrol stations. It's for whole Sweden and has all ''OKQ8'' petrol stations on it, which can be quite handy when hitchhiking and looking for a good place to be dropped off. [http://publikationswebbutik.vv.se/shopping/ShowItem____4483.aspx Here's another map] that you can apparently order for free.
It is quite usual to send a '''thanksaying-message''' the day after a party or after a meeting − saying something like "Thanks for yesterday". When you '''enter a flat''' or an apartment, it is a must to take off ones shoes!
