Snapshots from a Swedish Island

I have spent the last week on the Swedish island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. Often referred to as ‘Sweden’s Ibiza’ it has a unique landscape that you cannot find anywhere else in the country. Many of coastlines on the island are made up of shales and limestone rock formations called rauks. The main town on the island is called Visby, an old Hanse trading port with a still mostly intact medieval city wall, cobbled streets and colourful houses. Its a magical place like no other ✨
