Bucket list: Sweden Edition

Travelling for me, and I’m sure for quite a lot of us, is a liberating experience. It’s something that we all want to do.. To put on our backpacks, take that ticket and travel all over the world and leave our worries behind. And for those of us studying in Sweden, we sure have a lot of places to go, rejuvenate and be amazed. And what better time to travel than the holiday season! So Here is my bucket-list, Sweden Edition.
