I was excited to spend the summer solstice in #Sweden, imagining all sorts of celebrations. Turns out there aren't so many in downtown #Gothenberg. It was still very nice. :-)

I booked this trip a year ago on the recommendation of a couple I met in Buenos Aires. I’m so glad I did! And I’m so thankful for the fellow guests who rounded out our crew
