Hello from Stockholm

[Henrik]

Hello!

I'm a 24-year old Norwegian guy living and working in Stockholm as a translator for a hotel booking website. I discovered this forum about a month ago, and have spent many late nights since then just reading all kinds of threads here. This is the first forum on which I've actually registered myself as a user, and I'm so impressed by all the knowledge you people have and all the interesting posts here. Not to mention that you all seem like a great bunch of people!

I don't know much about the art of tattooing, but I spend a lot of time reading about it, watching documentaries and just watching pictures. I plan on getting another tattoo (I have two so far) in not too long hopefully, and I think this forum can be a good source of inspiration for me.

I guess that's all there is to it, thanks again for all the interesting posts and a great forum!:)

Oh great, Nordic jokes I DO NOT UNDERSTAND! Welcome Henrik, haha. Nice introduction, sounds like you're taking the right approach. Hope this leads to some great tattoos in the future!

Henrik,

Hello and welcome to LST. So glad you're finding it to be both useful and inspirational. We're a young forum, but we're always trying to bring new stuff to our users, so I hope you'll continue to find interesting things on here. And we can't wait to see what tattoos you do eventually get!

Also worth mentioning, the Stockholm Tattoo Convention is next month, and there will be all kinds of great artists visiting then as well.

Pretty sure Petri called himself a Finnish Devil (I can get by in Swedish, which means that Norwegians can both understand and laugh at me).

Fy Fan,

Stockholm! i couldn't remember where it was haha

[Iwar]

Are you half Swedish or something Hogg?

[hogg]

Haha, no, but I did have a Swedish girlfriend for two years. Her parents were from Västervik, Småland, so I've been told that I speak Swedish like a hick. :)

Thanks for all the links. So many skilled tattooists, I will definitely get in touch with some of these studios. I plan on getting a Japanese-style tattoo, so I found King Carlos and Stockholm Classic especially interesting.

What bigjoe said! Totally forgot about Daniel.

I know that Copenhagen is in Denmark, not Sweden, but it's not that far from Stockholm. Henning Jorgensen is there at Awardwinning World Famous Tattoo Studio, Royal Tattoo, Denmark and he is one of my favorite artists. I'd say that he's well worth the trip.

[Petri Aspvik]

Fuck. How could I forget?!!? The man

Traditional Japanese tattooing. For me, one of the best.
