Alexander Skarsgard Loved Living in Leeds

Alexander Skarsgard leaves the Giorgio Armani boutique on Tuesday (May 24) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The day before, the 34-year-old True Blood hunk ran some errands, picking up groceries from Bristol Farms.

Alex recently recalled living in England for half a year after attending Leeds Metropolitan University in the U.K.

“Me and my buddy, after the military, we wanted to travel, and we wanted to go to England, but we didn’t want to go to London, because there are like 300,000 Swedes in London and you just end up hanging out with Swedes, so we just looked at the map and saw Leeds,” he told FHM.

“We didn’t know anything about it other than it had a football club. So we were like, ‘Alright, let’s go there.’ I loved it. I had a great time. We lived in a basement with no windows, it was sleeping bags for six months, but it was all good times,” he added.
