Scenic views of Lake Mälaren from the City Hall |
Stockholm may have failed to win me over as a wandering traveler-not that boho, not that edgy, not that picturesque-, but it has certainly managed to capture my creative imagination in the details: Meditative chill-out cafes and delis with coal-coloured liquorice pop-corn. Floating hideaways with beer and beat-laden perks. Vintage corners with famously saltry pin-ups and vinyl retro-treasures. Despite its modern minimalist reputation, it was the luscious traces of decades past that, unwittingly, drew me in the most.
This is Stockholm, not through the eyes of a bedazzled visitor, but a corky collector with a moving camera.
