We spent a wonderful weekend in Cecilia's incredibly cozy apartment. The apartment is located in one of Stockholm's most beautiful neighborhoods. Cecilia was very welcoming and generous and had prepared everything for our arrival. Communication before and during our stay was excellent. She welcomed us with gluten-free cookies and bread and had even prepared breakfast for us! Her local tips were invaluable, and we went to restaurants, cafés, and Christmas markets that she recommended, in addition to our original plans for the weekend. Stockholm is so beautiful in December, and spending the first Sunday of Advent in Cecilia's apartment was a truly special experience. This was the most local (Pluto-) exchange we have ever done, just 50 km from home. Thank you for everything, we are very happy with our stay and would love to come back someday. Welcome to our home anytime! -
It was a real pleasure to meet you, thank you very much for coming! Hope we can make a summer cottage exchange next year!

Cecilia's home was quite close to downtown and other places of interest, with easy access to the Metro lines. Walking to the main shopping area was a matter of a few minutes. The neighborhood is safe, quiet and pleasant. We enjoyed meeting Cecilia and her lovely dog for Fika during the run of very pleasant weather in Stockholm. Communication was excellent. -
We had a wonderful time in Cecilia’s characterful apartment. Its ideally situated close to the city centre and major attractions with easy access to public transport. Walking distance to lovely restaurants and cafes. The stairs did take a little getting used to but the apartment is so unique and convenient ( and a great view) it’s totally worth it. Cecilia was really easy to talk to and flexible about the arrangements. We split our trip between a city stay and her wonderful rural waterfront cottage - such a great experience!! Cecilia took us on a tour of her local area which we really enjoyed, a lovely host!! We highly recommend Sweden and Cecilia!! -
We had the best stay at Cecilia's home in what the Swedish know as the "best" part of Stockholm (according to the locals that I spoke to). It's quiet, safe, clean, and everything is conveniently close by. Cecilia really went the extra mile, and invited my daughter and I to a small Swedish town where we enjoyed Fika with her and then she dropped us off at a Swedish bath house for my daughter to swim. Her place is perfect, and her hospitality was much appreciated. Stockholm is a must visit! -
Thank you very much Miranda. So glad you enjoyed your visit. It was a real pleasure to meet, and have you stay as my first PLU guests!
