Christmas in Sweden is possibly the most amazing time to be there. There are rusty fire pits around the market places to warm up your fingers and even though the sun sets around 2:00 in the afternoon, it just gives the city more of a reason to put twinkling Christmas lights everywhere! The people are incredible- the nicest I've encountered in Europe, by far. We stayed with an old friend and his family, which, I quickly found, is the best way to travel. Despite the fact that me and my two travel mates had to share one bed for four nights, we all agreed that Stockholm was our favorite place we had been to. Stylish, friendly people, the deepest most delicious red wine and simplistic foods make Stockholm what it is. Heaven.
