About me
Born and raised in Stockholm, owner of a 20+ year-old gecko named Sigge, and working as a freelancer in the set design department for film productions and as a UX designer. I'm also the owner of a small second-hand boutique.
I put thoughts into words as my deep passion, as well as dust off my bike and go treasure hunting in Stockholm’s second-hand boutiques. Hopefully, friends will be out having a beer afterwards, and I’ll be more than likely going to join them!
Why Stockholm?
Stockholm has a lot of potential – both because of the nature and proximity to water, but also thanks to sustainable thinking and a lot of driven and creative people. This is what makes the city feel alive in my opinion; new things constantly pop up and there are things to do and talk about.
People here also like to gather and have a good time, and even though it’s tough during the darkest of seasons – I believe they really try their best not to curl up in their shells.
My spots (18)
Två Små Svin
Smørrebrød and schnapps
"Två Små Svin" ("Two Little Pigs") in Stockholm is a restaurant that will be worth that little effort of going a bit outside the city center.

POP Stockholm
For the '60s and '70s lover
"POP Stockholm" is a vintage boutique inspired by the '60s and definitely a mecca for the retro lover. The mascot dog walks around the shop like a boss!

Humana Second Hand
For the '00s lovers
"Humana Second Hand" is one of my favorite stops on my day-off shopping sprees in Stockholm. Happy hunting!

Fåfängan
Get a city overview
"Fåfängan" in Stockholm is one of the most astonishing lookouts in the city. I like doing picnics there or, on chillier days, go for brunch!

Kamarina
The lasting Greek
For me, "Kamarina" is a perfect Sunday dinner restaurant in Stockholm. I like the warm atmosphere and the peaceful Greek music to perfect the experience!

Gamla Brogatan
A contrast to the surroundings
Gamla Brogatan in central Stockholm offers unique boutiques like Sko Uno for punk boots, Humana for second-hand, and Kawaii for quirky finds. A refreshing shopping spot!

Söders Hjärta
The heart of the south
Entering the door to Söders Hjärta ("The heart of the south") is like a comforting hug when met by a warm interior and timeless atmosphere. This genuine local pub has been pulsating on Södermalm for over 40 years.
