The place is riddled with history but simultaneously manages to be quite modern–and there’s loads of stuff to do.
This June, I was able to experience my first Swedish Midsummer, which I didn’t know was happening until the day before when my host parents told me. The holiday is huge there–like right up there with Christmas. Swedes get right back to their roots, celebrating with traditions from hundreds of years ago.
