..I am priviledged to be able to stay with my friends Annika and Anders at the Swedish embassy residence close to the Termini station. This time en route to Capri I slept in Crown princess Victoria´suite, alas! (and found no pea under the matress! Ha!)
The entrance hall.The residence of the Swedish Ambassador is some 1.500 sqm and situated in a lovely garden in the centre of Rome. This palace like mansion was acquired by the Swedish state in 1922.
The dining area.
The parlour, facing the lush gardens..
The stairwell to the second floor and the Ambassador´s private quarters.
The balcony (in the private quarters) facing the garden is a beautiful cool spot for long, Roman summer suppers..
