Favorite (place in the) city
I love exploring the diversity of cities. There’s beauty in discovering a sense of home and shared human experiences in places that look wildly different at first sight. That said, Stockholm has a wonderful combination of old grandeur and modern brightness, Scandinavian lifestyle and a strong presence of water throughout the city that I find very attractive.
