Zenid was a professional, friendly and sincere guide. He never stops revealing the stories and meanings of the buildings, streets and all the other architectural features in and out of Sodermalm. He also shares his well-learned knowledge and insights on Sweden's culture, history and its people. As a local resident, he leads you to the amazing viewpoints you might have never been able to discover on your own for the brief time of visiting. The whole tour comes down to a kind of an essential theme about Sweden at the end. I thoroughly enjoyed walking with him. Highly recommend to those who want to genuinely understand Sodermalm and Sweden.
