    After having done something physical during the day in winter (ice fishing for example). When you are both cold and hot and sweaty at the same time all day. And then a sauna to get completely warm and clean and a shower. Then just relax for the evening. There is nothing that makes you feel more cleaner or more relaxed. Its quite incredible. Its something I always remember from my childhood (grandparents were from Finland).
    When it comes to sauna its the finnish people that use them the most, apparently there are saunas everywhere over there. Here in Sweden its not at all as common, but many larger gyms and hotels etc do have them. They are not unusual to find here, just not part of the culture as much as in Finland.
    Nice to see Stockholm from your point of view!

    If you want to see cities more beautiful than Stockholm, you really should visit Germany, especially Bavaria and Franconia , so much beauty, also the fishing aspect is incredible, I spend my time walking in nature here, so many micro streams, with amazing fish, I don't fish anymore, but do enjoy feeding fish that I can only describe as “ Wild Barbel" and also the most beautiful Carp, they have become my friends, and after that, I get to drink the best beer in the world that only costs 2 quid ,and eat a great meal of fresh hunted meat. :) Really Love your journey Alex , keep doing what you are doing, mate, you are inspiring a lot of people in so many ways, :):):)

    Yes, it can be kind of pricy in Stockholm to buy food and fika. Just in a few months our prices overall has gone up 10-50% in our supermarkets and we are going in to a recession. Also our fuel prices has gone up by 50% since last year.
    Hope you go for more saunas, they are awesome.

    Saunas are great for cleaning the skin as they cause you to sweat it draws all the dirt and impurities out so when you get out and shower it all off your left with super clean skin. We have one at work it runs between 90-110c and its reccomended you spend no more than 15-20mins in there at a time between cooling off. Steam rooms have the same effect but they work faster at a lower temp and are good for clearing out your throat and lungs.

    For your next visit in Sweden, I recommend going to the area of Omberg by the lake Vättern and taking the ferry over to Visingsö. You can't drive on the island unless you live there but they have horse-drawn carriages and bike rentals etc. (Also, Omberg is beautiful for hiking and horseriding!) You take the ferry from Gränna, which is famous for candy canes and it's a super darling little town with small cobble streets and old gorgeous houses! Very picturesque!
    Can be very full of tourists though, so plan ahead.
    The nature in Småland and Östergötland is very beautiful in my opinion. Lots of woodland, lakes and fields. Very peaceful and magical by the forest lakes!
    Småland is also where IKEA is from and they have a museum that's supposed to be pretty good I think. 😄

    You cannot visit Stocholm for the first time and not go to the Vasa museum. That is a big no no.
    Across from the house of parlament (where you also passed) is the medeival museum. It is not big but a verry nice and interesting museum if you are in to history.
