An old Scandinavian tradition is to celebrate Midsummer. In some parts of Sweden this is when the sun never sets – the day never ends. The Midsummer celebration and tradition is also well known in many parts of Northern Europe. This picture is taken on the island of Möja, in the village Löka, where a lot of people come to enjoy the summer games and dancing round the midsummer-pole - as you can see in the picture.
I try to get out to the archipelago as often as possible, and we usually go to Möja, where we have a house in the village Berg. Especially at Midsummer we really try extra hard not to miss out – to go there and welcome summer.
Happy Midsummer everyone!
