The mission: Your story in Stockholm

Your name is Erik, you are a poor working class day labourer living on the island of Södermalm in the late 18th century.

Okay story, but a beautiful route! The riddles were fun but a little one dimensional. We had a lot of fun. Following the directions was easy as they are well written
