My trip to Stockholm during my internship in Turku (Finland)

My weekend trip to Stockholm, Sweden was the best free-time activity I could ever expect. Let me tell you more about my journey from Finland to Sweden during my internship abroad.

I am currently in Turku, Finland for my internship at Nova Talent for 4 weeks. During the 3rd week of my internship abroad, my roommate and I decided to do a trip to Stockholm on our last weekend abroad.

It was Friday evening, when we took a ferry from Turku to Stockholm. There are the "Viking Line" and the "Tallink Silja Line" to choose from. We wanted to travel on Friday night so that we can spend the whole Saturday in Stockholm.

We took the Silja ferry from 20:15 to 06:10 (Finnish time). On the ship, there are some restaurants, a few shops, some bars, a game room and places on the deck to spend the time besides sleeping. We got to see the evening show which took place in the evening. Afterwards we were able to sleep in our 4-bed-cabin until we arrived in Stockholm.

At the metro station we could buy a ticket for all the local public traffic. So we could take all the busses and trains in the city.

We arrived in the early Saturday morning, so we got to see the sunrise and had the whole day to spend there. After a short breakfast at the metro station we walked through different areas of the city, and we got to see so many historical buildings.

For lunch we decided to go to a local restaurant, and we had a "all you can eat buffet".
