I am Christin, E Commerce Manager at MORJAS. As I am the only non-Swedish person in the MORJAS team I am trying my best to discover Sweden in my freetime as much as possible. And sometimes you even get around more than the locals. Right from the start, I was totally impressed by the stunning nature here. A European capital but so much water and nature around – That amazed me right from the start. So it might be obvious how I spent most of my weekends here: In Nature! Let’s discover some of my most favourite places together:
Gålö Havsbadet
If it is sunny or rainy, Gålö Havsbadet is always worth a visit and one of the places I enjoy being the most. I have been checking out a lot of nature reserves around Stockholm but for me nothing beats this one path there which is leading you all the way by the water. Take some fika with you and enjoy the stunning view from one of the rocks over the waterfront.

Trosa
Trosa is a small, cute town around 1h from Stockholm, I went there quite often when friends and family from Germany were visiting. A lot of colorful houses along a canal are leading you to the city center. When you continue you get to the harbour. A super nice spot to buy a cup of coffee and sit there in the sun watching the boots leaving towards the sea.

Äppelfabrikens Musteri & Café, Svartsjö
This is a cozy café on the countryside especially in autumn when they start producing apple cider close to the café. You can sit in the garden under an apple tree or stroll around their gardening shop. A great place to relax especially after a nice walk on Svartsjö or Ekerö.
Grinda
Of course, there is a lot to discover in Stockholm’s archipelago, but my favorite island is Grinda. It takes about 1h to take the ferry from Stockholm to Grinda. A nice day trip where you can discover the little island by hiking around and end your visit with a coffee on the terrace of Grinda’s wärdshus.
