Next destination - Stockholm - one of the land with the highest air quality in the world

Hej!

I'm so happy to see you here again!

And as i start with the traditional informal swedish greeting "Hej!"(wich is reading like Hey), i hope you are already prepared for virtual journey with me in amazing country of winds and moose.

In the last month of the summer of this year(2018), we were planning a trip to Stockholm.

Plane tickets were bought, the room was booked, all was under control. And what do you think? Two days before the flight, we were writen by the our hostess, that are some problems with booking, and he can't offer accommodation to us anymore, but he will try to solve it. Facepalm. What to do? Money are paid, tickets are unrefundable, to get some good accomodations, you need look for it in advance, so we were stuck for a while. In waiting for response from hostess, we lost a huge sac of our poor little nerves.

We have cecked email for some news a lot of times, we have waited and waited but mail was very quite. We were afraid that we wouldn't have where to live. The Metro in Stockholm is beautiful but not enough to live there for a couple of days.

After much thought, ideas and compromises, we solve this situation in the last moment. Honestly I was already prepared that we are not going anywere, buuut we have reached our destination, and we were incredible happy.

Sometimes the way should be harder than others to feel this sweet taste of winning

This journey was little bit different than others. The same can be said about impressions left.

First of all, because Sweden is a northern country, with a different climate than in Southest Europe.

Another thing was that my boyfriend had some work tasks in Sweden, and for two days, I explored the city on my on.

I have to say that it was incredible experience. It so different and quiet. No one bothers you, no one complaind that it's tired or something else.(no offense baby if you reading that). You have the chance to spend you time with city in more intimate atmosphere.

I love travelling with my boyfriend, especially that he is my personal photographer )), but exploring something by your own, is something special, is like your secret, your personal invention.

I really recommend to everyone this kind of travel, at least one in few years.

In my article I wrote how I take my list of top place to see, so here I won't repeat myself, but I want to say that I have gone successfully through the whole list.

Stockholm is full of musee, I have chosen 2 that seemed more special to me, and I was really impressed, especially by the Moderna Museum. It marked me.
You know that feeling when someone takes your head, breaks it open, takes your minds, arranges them first in a position, then in another, and so on, and at the end puts them back and lets you understand what happened .. why you already see things differently, and what to do with it .. and you stay with such a bitter sweet aftertaste, but you know you want it again. You do not know? Well, go to the modern museet and you will know it too.

Stockholm is a dream town with a rich history. I do not want to repeat how impressed this city is, and how bad I miss it, so I higly recommend you to visit it. There's art all around - the architecture, the musee, the people's style. By the way, that can be a new topic because if you sit on a bench and start looking aroung you, it's like you are on the fashion week-amazing dressed people, stylish men, with well-arranged hair, dressed with elegance, in high-quality clothes. But I turned away from the main theme. So art. Even the subways can be an art gallery, where more than one hundred painters have made the most daring fantasies - moose, cosmic space, geometry, newton, whatever you want.

For people who are the fan of ABBA, you have one more reason to visit Stockholm. are a Swedish pop group formed in Stockholm in 1972. In Djurgården, Stockholm, Sweden, near Gröna Lund -(amusement park) you can find ABBA : The Museum, where you can dressed their scene-costumes, make photoshooting, dance and sing their hits.

The think i should stop for a moment is about local ways of payments

I do not know how many of you know that in Sweden, about 97% of commercial transactions are made with the card. And the northern state could be the first country to give up the physical currency (coins and banknotes).

And that's for the simple reason that any store has POS (point of sale). You go to get a candy, for ex, the seller types the amount you owe, you insert the card in the POS in front of you, introduce your pin (in case you get a very expensive candy) and that's it. The seller does not touch your card for a moment.

So i even don't know how looks swedish krona .

To my great sadness, i can't say you about shopping (wich actually is on of my favourite ocupation in travel time) because we travel by small luggage . But i really know that nordic people opt for elegance, minimalism(my style) and high-quality textiles

Next time i'll compensate this misstake ))).

About weather. Yes in Stockholm is cold, Yeeees the wind is strong. And yes, sometimes weather is changing several times during the day. So if in Romania in august you still wearing shorts and tops, in Stockholm i put on me sweaters and jakets. In the morning i heard how my teeth are chattering )), and my boyfriend teeth too))).

And if we talk about cold, we can't skip the Sweden New Year and winter holidays atmosphere . Here you can feel that atmosphere even in the middle of the summer, it's enough to get in a souvenir shop- a lot of christmas three toys, Jultomten(Sweden's Santa Claus.), snow globes and more. Do not forget that Lapland(wikipedia link), which is Santa's home, stretches over four countries: and Sweden including (more on my instagram account)

I can write a lot about Sweden but I stop here to keep the surprise for you, in case you decide to visit it)).
I hope you've traveled a little with me and enjoyed it.

Who are interested in more details and have suggestions for me, don't esitate me on the social networks that you can find (where?), I'm always l happy for a feedback.

See you :)
