Recently I had the idea to take my camera with me and go out filming Stockholm during the Midsummer weekend. I have so many nostalgic memories from when I was a teenager/in my early twenties and went home from a party or a club in broad daylight, even though it was in the middle of the night. That is June for ya! Since no subways or buses are operating these hours, there were many nights when I walked all the way home, with just the birds as company. On the longest day of the year, it hardly even gets dark before it's time for the sun to come back. And since so many Stockholmers leave the city for country during summer, it can sometimes feel like you have the whole city to yourself.
It may sound trivial, but the combination of nostalgia and the magic of sunlit 'nights' made me want to share it with you. So here is a video of mine and Simon's Midsummer's Day night, four hours out and about in Stockholm June 22nd.
