The island of Djurgården, a green oasis in the heart of Stockholm, is a wonderful place for daydreaming.

Wandering through Rosendal Trädgård, established by the Swedish Garden Society between 1861 and 1911, to the greenhouses and gardens with the charmingly romantic café, makes for a perfect outing on a long Swedish midsummer day.

The atmosphere here is unpretentious and friendly, while the food is incredibly refined and artistic without being affected.

Traditional Swedish dishes, crafted with careful handwork by Stefan Ekengren and his team, are presented with a modern twist and sometimes a touch of humor.

There is also a bar where experienced, cool bartenders mix remarkably good cocktails with great passion.

For those interested, a "Spritbordet" five-course menu is available, perfectly paired with cocktails or mocktails.

A short stroll, an extensive walk with the dog or a daily jogging route through the city park – all become even more delightful with a cup of coffee, an ice-cold drink or a tasty snack.

All this comes together at Flindt & Ørsted in Copenhagen’s Ørstedparken.

For many, the epitome of Danish cuisine is the Smørrebrød.

At Selma, near the Copenhagen Market Halls, this classic dish is elevated to an exquisite delicacy, crafted with the finest ingredients and a lot of love.

In a relaxed, familial atmosphere, it’s a joy to explore the imaginative versions of this traditional favorite.

A really good pair of scissors, a pretty notebook with a matching pen, glue that we won’t want to hide in a drawer…don’t we all wish for everyday items that look beautiful and bring us joy?

At Carta Pura, you’ll find all of this, from writing utensils to bookbinding supplies and fine stationery.

Plus, there are artistic sheets for paper enthusiasts who truly appreciate them.

Stockholm's market hall thrives on its unique blend of historic architecture and a delightful selection of exquisite delicacies.

Whether we're looking for fresh ingredients to cook in our Airbnb, searching for culinary souvenirs for loved ones back home or just craving a quick snack among the old market stall - Saluhall is the perfect place.

So, grab your shopping bags and let yourself be tempted!

The late nineties had faded into the past and the enthusiasm of the new millennium was beginning to wane.

I had graduated from the Technical University of Munich as an architect and decided to stash my Buffalo platforms along with the low-rise jeans in the attic.

But slipping into the black turtleneck of the architecture guild in my late twenties didn’t quite feel right.

The creative spark of my studies had fizzled out in the dusty routine of office life, bogged down by liability clauses and dull government regulations.

I couldn’t muster much excitement for the idea of arguing with the building authority.

So my husband and I surprised our parents with the plan to open a café  with a concept store.

Katrin, Flo, and Johannes run Sorry Johnny together. Katrin takes care of the guests, Flo mans the bar, and Johannes handles the kitchen.

Well, technically… because just as often, they switch roles, with each stepping in for the other.

Everything here flows effortlessly, hand in hand.

It’s clear at first glance - and taste, that these friends love being hosts.

That’s why this tiny café in Haidhausen isn’t just our top breakfast spot in Munich, but, above all, a place where you feel right at home, in the truest sense - with friends.

It’s only fair to warn you that we can hardly write about Il Piccolo Principe with any degree of neutrality - we are completely in love with this place.

This small, family-run restaurant in Glockenbachviertel has been around for over 30 years.

It doesn’t try to follow the latest trends, nor does it aim for perfect Instagram appeal.

What truly matters here is a deep love for exceptional food, wonderful wines, close connections to producers and the joy of being a gracious host.

“The true joy is the joy of others,” as it says in the book The Little Prince.

If that’s true, then at Piccolo Principe, the joy is undoubtedly mutual.

Fika, the Swedish coffee break, is deeply woven into daily life here and for us, it’s one of the most beloved rituals of Nordic culture.

Throughout Scandinavia, good filter coffee is a given. The beans tend to be lightly roasted up here, which makes for a smooth, almost fruity brew.

So even though the quick espresso stop at Caffelini feels far more Italian than Swedish, it’s just as welcome - especially on a lively afternoon in Stockholm’s Old Town.
