Holiday Stockholm

 I had a city holiday this summer, it might not be the most relaxing and lazy place. But i really enjoyed it and managed to relax and meet lots of friends.



My way of spending quality time in Stockholm is to be at the island Djurgarden, a green park in central city.  Beloved by many. Djurgarden is a calm oasis which has been royal land since the fifteenth century with many fine areas to stroll or having picnic's.


My very favorite hangout is an organic garden called Rosendals tradgardar. A few greenhouses storing many activities . Cafe , plant shop, bread shop , organic vegetable for sale and you can pick your own bouquet of fresh garden flowers and pay by the weight. 
The eco-friendliest way to move around is by bicycle. Stockholm has many rental stations all over the city and well organized lanes.

 I made a visit for tea at a friends gazebo in her garden. It is quite common in Sweden to have a separate little wooden house for rest, good view and shelter from the Nordic rain.
