I know right! The linen part was totally new to me before planning the trip too. Good that you can reduce accommodation costs, they’re really expensive in Stockholm!

Thanks for visiting my blog! =D

But thats strange about the bed linen charges. I will be staying with friends in Stockholm so Im lucky to save on cost there. This was a really helpful post thank you 🙂

Thanks Ainsley! The boat hotel is a cool idea indeed – a classic option only Stockholm has, I’m keeping it in my mind for my future returns too! =D

Hi Joanna! Thank you for coming by! Am very happy to see your comment! I was in Stockholm for 2 days, leaving next morning on the 3rd, so I didn’t have a chance to visit the archipelagos, which was a pity! You have fun doing that, I shall save it for my next time! =) Also, I had booked a hotel room and also cancelled when I found the hostel that eventually felt like a good fit. I also didn’t try their famous cinnamon buns for fika haha I’m missing out all the must-sees and must-eats! Time passed really quickly for me in Stockholm, I might be sharing my itinerary here on my blog though.

I went Bergen and Stavanger after Stockholm – Norway is unlike any other country I’ve ever been, it’s amazing! Please stay tuned for my blogposts on Norway, I’ll try my best to catch up writing! Scandinavia has SO MUCH to offerrrrrrr I wish I can spend months just exploring there if it’s not so expensive *blushes*, and omg you’re going Iceland and Copenhagen! Enjoy your trip, definitely will be awesome!

Such beautiful images. Definitely makes me want to visit! Nice idea of staying on the boat. One day I’ll get there 🙂

I totally enjoyed reading your Stockholm post! I will be visiting end of July. I have so many places I want to see! I have never been told that Stockholm was a boring place to visit…. You had only three days there so I gather you didn’t get to cruise about the archipelagos? That is something I will definitely be doing. I have 6 days there so double your time.
I did book a hotel room but ended up cancelling it and found an awesome Air B and B right in the heart of Sodermalm. I have a list of cool cafes that have been highly recommended but definitely have taken your advice and maybe googling the menus online first! Haha. Did you try the infamous Cinnamon Buns?

I cannot wait to get to Scandinavia! I will be going to Iceland and Norway (Oslo/Bergen/Stavenger) and a quick visit to Copenhagen? Have you visited those cities? I would love to read your blogs aout them!

Joanna

Thanks Pamela Leon for coming by! Honestly, I spent much time planning possible programs to fill my itinerary and it was quite a struggle because I struck out museums like Vasa Museum, ABBA Museum, the medieval museum etc as I had no interest in them. But I went Stockholm at a good period when the cherry blossoms were in bloom in Stockholm, the ambience was really fantastic! I might share my ‘not-so-conventional’ itinerary on my blog one day =)

But thank you for sharing these inside tips, will definitely take them into consideration and now I think I will add Stockholm to my travel bucket list!

Thank you Julie! Stockholm was a pretty place to visit =) And about the hostel, IKR! Very glad I found this hostel! Or I would have had to pay S$400+ for a room half the size somewhere else.. 😉

Oh no! I didn’t eat meatballs in Stockholm lolll (I don’t take beef), and I didn’t go IKEA either! Not worth the time to travel down hehe.

Thanks Alaine! Fun to read about the differences from a person familiar with Stockholm too! Hmm, what I did was walk past the cafes at Sodermalm and check out the menus pasted outdoors –– mostly Swedish, so I’ll just walk on, ha! I’m the kind who just wants quick and easy efforts about meals when I travel solo, so I don’t even think about asking the staff, though all I’ve met are just very helpful and friendly staff in Stockholm =)

Its so different from my experience! hahahaha…. I’m glad you enjoyed your visit to my favorite city in Europe. 🙂
A few differences:
I’ve never paid to use a toilet except in Centralstation in Stockholm. I saw a lot of Swedish-Asians in Stockholm and notice more and more each time I visit. I don’t usually get spoken to in English much either but maybe because my Swedish is pretty decent and sounds pretty native just without a distinct accent. hahaha that being said, its really nice to read what its like to experience Stockholm without even a basic Swedish and seems like the only trouble you have is on the trains and menus. There are quite a lot of menus in English if you ask for many restaurants but there are a lot that don’t. The servers are more than happy to help you translate though!
