Swedish Royalty in the Big Apple

Having recently complete her degree in History of Art, Ethnology and Modern History at Stockholm University, the youngest member of Sweden's royal family, Princess Madeleine, is moving to New York City. She will apparently be interning at UNICEF and living in a "posh Manhattan pad" with three of her closest friends. Ah the life. Hopefully she will be around in March when my sister and I are planning to go to New York. Not that we are stalkers or anything, but it would be fun to see her while we are there. Both Madeleine's older siblings have lived in the US. Crown Princess Victoria studied at Yale, as well as doing internships at both the UN in New York and the Swedish Embassy in Washington DC. Prince Carl Philip went to a private high school in Connecticut for two years.

Does she need a house boy? I can be had for a very low price.

Maybe she would like a chauffeur so she doesn't have to bother with public transportation or taxis. How are your driving skills?

I drive real good. It is the parking that might be problematic.

When she's out and about, you just drive the car around the block until she's ready to go somewhere else. Plus, I'm sure that her "posh Manhattan pad" comes with some kind of parking arrangement. She's a princess for goodness sake!!
