Day 169 - Sweden 🇸🇪

July 21, 2021

First visited in 2008 on one of my first independent weekend trips. I remember I was very excited to be flying with Scandinavian. This was still the era where you got a free newspaper and meal in economy. Visiting Scandinavia for the first time was a big deal back then. I vividly remember trying moose for the first time, eating vast amounts of pickled herring and exploring Skansen.

Today I’m going to let the photos and a few lists do most of the talking:
