Ah, Sweden - a place where you're sure to find meatballs tastier than IKEA's and where ABBA is everyone's guilty pleasure. It's the only nation where spotting a moose during your morning commute is totally normal. They've brought us flat-packed furniture and an impressive knack for design, coupled with an arctic chill that's ironically warmed by a never-ending love for fika (coffee breaks). It's a Scandinavian paradise where people actually enjoy assembling furniture and the Northern Lights turn the sky into their own private disco.

Kalix is in the county of Norrbottens

Kalix, the land of endless ice and snow, where even Santa Claus himself takes his summer vacation. This charming little town, tucked away in the heart of Norrbottens, is a true winter wonderland. But don't be fooled by its icy facade, as the warm-hearted locals and their rich culture will melt even the coldest of hearts. So grab your skis and thermals, and get ready to experience the magic of Kalix, where the chill is just an excuse to cuddle up with a cup of hot cocoa by the fire..
