Stockholm / Restaurant

If you want to try something outside the city center this is a really beautiful small gem. They cook delicious seasonal food and have a nice selection of cheese and charcuterie for your wine. Best to book table beforehand.

Stockholm / Music Venue

During the summer Trädgården is the place to be if your out clubbing. It has a great festival atmosphere. The chance of you getting seperated from your friends is immidiate but you will meet new ones. I have a love-hate relationship with this place, watch out for the massive que and the ill willing pointers.

Stockholm / Park

Close to the water this park has animals, swings, climbing frames and playhouse. I place for families to play with there kids, but in the evening the area is occupied by teenagers.

Stockholm / Art

One of Stockholms most beautiful and well hidden art museums. This studio of Swedish sculptor Carl Eldh is located in a stunning old wooden building close to Brunnsviken/Haga parken.

Stockholm / Market

A huge flee market that occures two times a year, once in spring the other in the fall. Take the subway to Solna centrum and take the 3 min walk to the big sports arena where the fleemarket is held. There is lots of retro and vintage and a good potential of finding bargains.
