Travel: Stockholm Photo Diary

View of central Stockholm
Me in Djurgården park in Stockholm with Kanken rucksack
Hej hej! Hello! I'm back from a wonderful week long trip to Sweden and I am excited to share lots of photos and travel tips with you. Discovering new parts of this wonderful world is one of my favourite things so I really enjoy putting together these posts! So without further ado, welcome to part one of (probably) four Sweden posts - a photo diary of the super cool capital, Stockholm. 

Pastel coloured houses in Sodermalm, Stockholm
Buildings in Sodermalm, Stockholm
We spent most of our time in the much hyped area of Sodermalm and I can certainly see what all the fuss is about. It's really chilled, with lots of space  and we loved exploring it's little backstreets and alleyways. We stumbled across a nice walkway in Mariaberget - an area in north west Sodermalm - where there are aaaamazing views over Stockholm! And of course, no area would be complete without some awesome places to eat and there certainly is in Sodermalm. Keep your eyes peeled for my foodie post coming up!
Where to hang out in Sodermalm, Vita Bergen park, Stockholm
Vita Bergen park in Stockholm
The Vita Bergen park in Sodermalm, right next to the buzzing Skånegatan, is a lush haven on a hill with views over the city and a clear hangout favourite for young Swedes on summer evenings. It's like a little community up high with classic Swedish cabin style houses and its own church!
Coloured streets in Gamla Stan, Stockholm
Living in the white city of Paris, I was completely taken by the gorgeous pastel and rustic hues in Stockholm. The little narrow streets in the central island of Gamla Stan is lovely for just strolling around. Make sure you look up!
Places to visit in Stockholm - Stadshuset city hall
View of Sodermalm, Stockholm
Me in the courtyard of Stadshuset city hall Stockholm
Architecture of Stadshuset city hall Stockholm
Across the water from my beloved Sodermalm is the laid-back and mainly residential area of Kungsholmen, in which we had a lovely evening stroll towards its main attraction - Stadshuset, the city hall. The building is beautiful, both from outside by the harbour and inside the impressive courtyard. There are also awesome views of Sodermalm from Kungsholmen. 
Blue gate entrance for Djurgården park island in Stockholm
House boats on Stockholm harbour
Stockholm is made up of about 14 islands, each connected by bridges and ferries and each with their own character and uniqueness. Djurgården island is one massive park, which is a great place to escape to. It also houses many of the city's famous museums, including Skansen the world's largest outdoor museum and…the ABBA museum! God I so wanted to go but I couldn't persuade the other half to spend 20€ on looking at Abba costumes and experiencing what it might be like to be the fifth member of Abba. Maybe next time eh?!

I hope you have enjoyed the first instalment of my Sweden posts! If you are considering a trip over to Sweden or even just Stockholm, I say DO IT! The people are so friendly and it's so beautiful yet not too touristy, which are some key ingredients for a great holiday! For some more tips, stay tuned for a mini foodie guide, shopping advice in Stockholm and a post on the beautiful nature in Stockholm's archipelago.


Salut! Je suis revenue des vacances en Suède, j'ai passé une très bonne semaine et j'ai hâte de partager mes photos et mes conseils. Voilà la première partie de (probablement) quatre posts sur la Suède et on commence par un journal des photos de Stockholm! Mon quartier préféré de Stockholm est, sans doute, Sodermalm. Il est détendu, beau et avec plein d'espace pour se balader tranquillement. Le parc, Vita Bergen en Sodermalm, est super pour passer une soirée d'été entre potes aussi! 

En habitant dans Paris - la ville blanche - j'ai trop kiffé les couleurs vives et pastels des bâtiments à Stockholm. L'île central de Gamla Stan est super pour se balader dans des petites rues mignons avec plein de couleurs! Il faut aussi visiter le quartier de Kungsholmen qui est assez résidentiel mais trop beau. L'étoile de ce quartier est l'hôtel de ville, Stadshuset car l'architecture est magnifique et il y a des belles vues de Sodermalm d'ici.

Stockholm consiste de 14 îles, chacun avec son propre caractère. Djurgården est un île qui est complètement un parc - super pour se détendre. Il y a aussi plein de musées sur cet île y compris Skansen et la musée d'Abba! Je voulais trop y aller mais Lewis n'était pas convaincu. La prochaine fois hein?! 

Voila, j'espere que tu as aimé mes photos de Stockholm! Il y a d'autres posts qui - viennent sur la bouffe, le shopping à Stockholm et la nature de l'archipelago.
