If you were not jealous yet 

As I now live with Swedes rather than foreign students, I am gaining more insight into the culture. One housemate is not from Sweden, but has lived here for sometime and confirms rumors I had heard that Swedes' nightly goal is to quickly get drunk pregaming, then go out and find someone to bring home. They treat the person as a stranger in the morning and repeat. Further, there is a particular bar where this is known to be the only reason to be there, so since everyone is one the same page, she says it is as if you arrive and ring a bell, and they come running and panting at your feet.

Of course that's not my style, but if anyone wants to see this great city, I would be happy to point them to that bar.

Probably couldn't impress you, but I don't know I've never been there.

Actually you might dig my housemates, and luckily, they aren't my style either.

Can we get some pics? And I will serioulsy consider your offer some point in the future. How much is a plane ticket anyway?

Sometime soon a friend will copy hundreds of photos to my hdd, so I'll pick some whenever that comes. Don't hold your breath. My one way direct from Newark cost $435, and my roundtrip for Christmas to JFK with a stop in Helsinki adding two hours cost $482.
