Swedes love to ride their bikes, so let’s do like the Swedes and ride around the funky neighborhood of SoFo!
The ‘South of Folkungagatan’ district, warmly known as SoFo is an area of Stockholm aptly named for its own rendition of ‘Bobo’ culture. Bohemian Bourgeois. An up-and-coming neighborhood, SoFo has rejected the chain stores and typical tourist attractions in hopes of encouraging smaller boutiques and mom-and-pop businesses to open and flourish.
