Description
We, Margot and Kjell, live in a typical Swedish red house with a hudge garden, close to Stockholm city center. Our garden needs always attention :-)
Our house is perfect located to visit Stockholm and its surroundings with cafes, bird park, shopping center, running tracks, the sea and outdoor gym. There is also a lot of interesting history around (specially if you are interested in Vikings).
Public transport is reachable in 5 minutes walk and it takes about 20 minutes to reach Stockholm city center.
Sometimes there are even task at our holiday house at the beautiful island of Rindö in the Stockholm archipelago. This is a beautiful island with lots of nature. Even from Rindö its easy to visit Stockholm City Center.
We are a couple who loves travelling and different cultures. We are very social and like to interact with other people. We will show you the Swedish way of living :-)
