Hej, I'm Frankie, your local Stockholm guide! I'm originally from Canada but have made Stockholm my chosen home since 2020. I'm passionate about culture, history, anthropology, sociology, design and architecture. I first came to Sweden to pursue a Joint Master's of Science in Biotechnology at 3 top universities: Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm University, and KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Since graduating, I have also studied Swedish history, lifestyle, culture, art, and urban planning. My knowledge is therefore split between the natural sciences & technology and the social sciences. When I travel, I'm always looking for authenticity and new ways to experience the world. So as a local guide, I tend to recommend the hidden gems and the hole in the wall, mom-and-pop shops that most tourists (and even fellow locals) don't know about. I love to share my passion for Stockholm as a storyteller and filmmaker on YouTube, too. Listen to my podcast, "Somewhere in Stockholm" on Spotify if you want a little introduction to the city's most interesting people and places. Looking forward to meeting you on one of my tours! Let's experience Swedish culture together!

Your Stockholm tour itinerary
Begin your tour in Stockholm in front of the Nobel Museum, where you'll meet your guide and dive into the Old Town's Christmas Market. Let yourself be dazzled by the Christmas lights and trees while you learn about the history of the Christmas markets in Stockholm. Next, discover how Christmas is celebrated in Sweden, from the food, to the traditions and celebrations. Hear the story behind the origins of Dalarna's toy horse and the tomten, the Swedish Santa gnome, as well as the ceremony of St. Lucia. Afterwards, be sure to soak up the Swedish Christmas spirit with a tasting of holiday dishes and treats. If you're looking for a commemorative souvenir, your guide can provide an exclusive list of places for traditional, authentic keepsakes.
