Do you ever go to a place and it just reminds you of a different world?
I was in Stockholm in August 2017, and visiting FIKA on a sunny Sunday afternoon just brought back all the good memories from my stay in Sweden. The laid back afternoon vibes, the cinnamon buns I would eat during my morning commute as I traveled through the old town, the subtle but beautiful design that I found in every shop.
As I sat in the back, surrounded by cute plants and with The Pixies playing in the background, it felt like I had stepped into a different world, enclosed within the confines of this cute cozy coffee shop.
Maybe I've been reading too many books involving magical realism and parallelism, but there was definitely something poetic and whimsical about my Sunday afternoon at FIKA. I will definitely be coming back!
