Sweden! Land of the Vikings and of course, beautiful Stockholm!
Stockholm is a thriving city with busy shopping streets. but luckily it still holds onto its beautiful old town. The Old Town is filled with traditional colourful buildings and cobbled streets. A beautiful alternative to the busy modern lifestyle.

If, like me,  you love a good panoramic view of a city, a perfect view of all of Stockholm can be seen from, what they call, Stockholm's balcony. 

You will see many statues in Stockholm, but there's one that you will have to look hard for as it is alot smaller than the others. The small boy statue is the smallest statue in all of Stockholm - and he really is tiny!

Further to the South of Sweden and you can visit Vattern lake. Vattern Lake is bigger than Lake Garda in Italy and can be mistaken as the ocean. The ruins of Brahehus castle sit on this hillside. The views from the castle of the lake and nearby towns are incredible!
