    Great little town. Now with the other side of the bay more developed with a new area called The Queen's Shore the town got even more beautiful.

    Very Cute Village SW..... A nice place to visit and chill out..... I was just watching an old video from Drottningholm which is a wonderful Building and park...... I am spending a lot of time in your company at the moment..... And I am loving every minute... Your videos are very calming...... Have a great weekend, and enjoy a good night out, you have deserved it.... :-)))) xxxxxx ps: have you tried putting a little cotton wool around your microphone to help with the wind noise.... xx

    The history is interesting. Sweden once had a large empire extending into parts of modern day Russia, Poland, Germany, & the Baltic States as well as Finland & Norway during various periods. Swedish domination ended in 1809 with Finland becoming an autonomous grand duchy of Russia until the Russian Revolution in 1917. Free Finland is only 105 years old. But they've been fierce fighters when it comes to maintaining their independence from Russia. They are most welcome as the newest member of the NATO Alliance, along with Sweden. ELAKOON SUOMI!

      @StockholmWalks  Před rokem +1

      Nah, not really. I think they’re trying, and off course they have some tourist, but I think it’s mostly people in the area, out sailing, summer cottages in the area, getting out of Helsinki. But that’s just me guessing based on a couple of visits

    "To wrap something in cellophane", that would be the direct translation from my language of a phrase we use, when we try to present things better or nicer than they really are.You don't do that, but always try to capture the reality and don't hesitate to also show the less appealing parts of cities.To balance things out, as you say

      The beauty lies in the fact that you "dare" to show the unpainted reality, something that you don't always get in the YT world
