Would you believe that this spot is just about a 15-minute walk from the scene in the photo below?

Djurgården is my feel-good spot in Stockholm. I always am happy when I’m on this island and mostly because there’s not much to do there except enjoy nature. Yeah, don’t harass me – I know that Gröna Lund, Skansen and countless restaurants and museums are there too. But for me, those aren’t everyday stops. But the island itself is. It’s where I go to be in nature. And it’s also where I love to exercise. I’ve been walking or cycling on Djurgården every day lately. It’s flat-out beautiful there. And it makes me happy.
