The Wayfaring Path

I was actually pretty excited about that, although we weren’t really dressed for the 1920s! It dropped us off in 2025 and rattled and clamped off around the corner. So probably not a ghost tram but it was fun to imagine! #thewayfaringpath #stockholm #sweden #sverige #halloween #tram #vintage

We got on and it was all beautiful wood panelling inside, with all the old adverts too. The seats were wooden, the lights glowed warm. After a moment we both looked at each other and wondered if we had gotten onto a ghost tram, which was going to drop us off in 1925 or something!

In honour of Halloween - last night we were heading home in the wet and dark and the tram that pulled up was so full of people and prams that we chose to wait for the next. A few minutes later this lovely old tram, complete with uniformed ticket guard, pulled up so we got on… (cont. in comments)

Our last Stockholm museum was Nordiska Museet, the #museum of #nordic life. Another excellent place to while away a wet afternoon - the top floor takes you from the 1500s to the present day and every room/space is different and visually arresting. #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #stockholm

There’s nothing more fitting for a birthday dinner for @reganbarsdell.bsky.social than a Viking restaurant! Yelling, plates of meat, too much mead… it was all a bit perfect! #thewayfaringpath #sweden #viking #aifur #stockholm

Last chance will be Friday night at Henri's - they are further out of town than us so less light pollution. The aurora keeps teasing Stockholm and not following through, but I have hope!

Aaaaand…. Nope.

Omg Aurora overhead right now! Well, nearly. Just need that dang cloud to clear. Everyone please send cloud-clearing vibes so I can tick off my number one bucket list item!

Aurora-hunting in the far north of Sweden Last weekend we flew up to Kiruna, in Swedish Lappland, in search of the Northern Lights. I'll not keep you in suspense, we didn't see them, but we DID get a wonderful dose of snow! But first, the week that was...

Yeah I'd totally buy a key like that :)

It was! And hail in Welly I see too... so we are all getting the wintery goodness!

Thank you! It was really fab!

Snow! I made a video about our weekend in Kiruna, northern Sweden: youtu.be/daF4uMaAxIg?... #north #snow #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #kiruna #arcticcircle #brr

We are in our last week in Sweden now, and I’m sad to be wrapping up our time here. Today’s pic is the key to the basement laundry at our Airbnb - it makes me feel like I’m unlocking a treasure chamber! #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #nyckel #key

Proper snow! No aurora, sadly, but real proper wonderful snow! I loved it so much and can’t wait to be back in the snow again. #thewayfaringpath #kiruna #sweden #sverige #snow #arcticcircle

Två – week two in Sweden Happily we had amazing weather so on Tuesday and Wednesday we went walking in parks after work. Stockholm has huge and amazing parks (of course!) and the autumn trees are just so beautiful it makes me want to cry.

Två - week two in Sweden

We are in #Kiruna, in the far north of #Sweden! Just here for two days, hoping to see the #NorthernLights but it’s looking a bit too cloudy for that. There’s some snow on the ground, and 12-15cm forecast for tomorrow so that’ll be an experience! Here’s a cool bit of tree #thewayfaringpath #Lappland

Stockholm is stupidly photogenic. Holy moly. #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #stockholm #travelphotography #blackandwhitephotography

YouTube video by The Wayfaring Path - Linda and Regan's travels Visit a silk factory with me! #fabric #silk #history ~Linda

Here's my wee Short about the silk museum Almgren that I visited today. youtube.com/shorts/YB1md... #historicaltextiles #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #silk #stockholm

OMG I love them so much! I think I'll buy mine now too!

Today’s adventure: a trip to an historic silk weaving factory. I’ll make a short later. Really interesting and engaging museum (of course!) and great to see all the old looms and machines, many of which are still being used (but sadly not today). #thewayfaringpath #sweden #stockholm #museum #history

Sweden is wonderful but quite expensive so I’ve taken to scouring second hand stores for souvenirs - and today I found this cute little guy! He’s tiny, about 7cm long, and I love him to bits! #thewayfaringpath #sweden #sverige #gnome #1950s #vintage #thrifting #tourist #gamlastan

Yes! And would have been so incredible when in was painted!

The sky was a little bit glorious this evening. We spent the afternoon at the completely amazing Vasa Museum - I’ll make a Short for that later - and when we walked outside we were greeted with this majesty! #thewayfaringpath #sunset #Sweden #Sverige #stockholm

Our first week in Sweden We are big fans of Sweden! The bits we've seen so far are beautiful, well-organised, and safe. We've been able to find our way around with no trouble, everyone is happy to speak English with us, and the weather has been brilliant.

No pic today, instead a wee video of some nice autumnal scenes around Stockholm youtube.com/shorts/ZqoeH... #sverige #sweden #thewayfaringpath #autumn #fall #nordic #autumncolour #travel #tourist

This is Salu, my bonus-sister’s dog. She came with us to Uppsala yesterday and liked the city as much as we did! #uppsala #sweden #thewayfaringpath #autumn

Today we went to the #ancient city of #Uppsala - where royalty has been buried for many centuries. These huge mounds are where the very most powerful people were buried. Had a lovely time with family, wandering around the sights. Another stunner of a day! #sweden #sverige #thewayfaringpath #tourist

Me too!
