The small shop on Camden Street has a hand-painted sign that says "O'Malley's" in faded gold, and beneath it, a chalkboard announces today's special: "Coddle and brown bread." You push the door, and the bell jingles as a wave of warm air and the smell of turf hits you. A good shop sign is a promise, and this one has kept its word for forty years.
In the barber shop on Grafton Street, the chair has cracked leather and a squeak that sounds like a seagull. You sit down, and the barber asks about your holidays in the same tone he's used for thirty years. He trims your hair and tells you a joke about a Cork man and a priest. The chair holds more stories than a library.
You sink into the worn leather chair at the barber's on Grafton Street, and the barber drapes a hot towel over your face without asking. He's been cutting hair for thirty years, and he knows you like it short on the sides but not too short on top. The scissors snip in a steady rhythm, and for a while, the world outside the fogged window can wait.
Vous rencontrez l'élan caractéristique de la Suède, les ours bruns et le lynx boréal dans ses forêts et zones sauvages. Vous constatez que les foyers suédois gardent le plus souvent des chiens, des chats et des lapins comme animaux de compagnie bien-aimés.
