Sweden is a country filled with a limitless list of things to see and do. With 80% of its landscape covered in wilderness, there is an abundance of nature, thousands of islands and an astonishing 100,000 lakes. Sweden is also the home to Ikea, ABBA, and the birthplace of the Nobel Prize.
Sweden’s capital, Stockholm, is Scandanavia’s grandest city and unquestionably one of the most beautiful capitals in the world. It is known as the ‘Venice of the North’, spread across 14 islands and connected by 57 bridges. The wider Stockholm archipelago is made up of a sizeable 33,000 islands!

Since the first day I stepped foot in Malta, I have developed a Maltese balcony obsession. Malta’s balconies, otherwise known as the gallarija, are traditional elements of the country’s architecture. They became popular in the late 17th century, with the first balconies featuring at Valletta’s Grand Master’s Palace, which then set off this spectacular trend. I have been in complete awe of them, including their colours and structures, and how they feature on buildings all over the country. Interestingly, the colour of the balcony is matched to the door of that particular building. It is only right that I dedicate an entire blog post to photos of these architectural wonders…
