 Good morning from Stockholm! The Swedish capital is spread across 14 islands. One of them is Södermalm ("Southern Island"), or "Söder" as locals call it. It used to be a working-class district. Today, Södermalm is sometimes called 'hipster island' because of its alternative culture and buzzing nightlife. ⁠Have you ever been to Stockholm?⁠
