Hemester
Swedish word of the day. Hemester. Staycation. Four photos from a recent eBike ride around Södermalm in Stockholm. It was another beautiful Summer day and many locals were out on the water everywhere. Snapped these views near the two islands Reimersholme and Långholmen. I did hear and see a lot of international tourists as well, quite a few young Americans were strolling around, and most of the restaurants, cafes and beaches were filled to capacity, which was great to see.
Looks like our province of Friesland, where half the population also recreate on the water.
