A city that rewards exploration, pastel-coloured buildings intercept every viewpoint and bars and great food really dictate the \u201changout vibe\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>After a job opportunity came up in Malm\u00f6, Australian designer and illustrator Megan McKean moved to the Swedish city andinto a temporary apartment overlooking a courtyard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring lockdown, I\u2019ve been working from the kitchen table. I love watching the different windows of other people\u2019s homesover the course of the day \u2013 the lights flickering, the candles going on as the night sets in,\u201d McKean says. \u201cI love\u00a0imagining the different worlds that are taking place on the five floors around me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the uninitiated, Fika is a daily tradition. McKean will begin her day with a walk through one of the city\u2019s many parks(\u201chonestly, they\u2019re like Narnia with their lamp posts and leafy trails,\u201d she says) before visiting a coffee house for Fika, a ritual ofsimply sitting down for a coffee and cake break.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pastries and cakes in Sweden are hard to beat, from the classic kanelbulle to the super cute, bright green Prinsesst\u00e5rta,\u201d McKean says. \u201cEverything is so delicious and adorable \u2013 how can you top that? Most coffee houses will have multiple options for the filter coffees, as well,so I exist in a permanent state of caffeination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Slottstr\u00e4dg\u00e5rden is the only organic garden in Malm\u00f6 and it\u2019s popular both among tourists and locals. With eight themed lush gardens \u2013 make sure to visit the rose garden and the Japanese garden \u2013 Fika is best enjoyed in this very spot.<\/p>\n<p>We mention Slottstr\u00e4dg\u00e5rden because while in Stockholm, most of the things that make that city vibrant are trends, in Malm\u00f6, people are generally a little more down to earth. And this little garden setting is a spot to breathe and relax and just be. When you\u2019re done, it\u2019s a shortwalk home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI adore so much about the city; beautiful canals and medieval buildings, a castle and a windmill all within walking distance,\u201d McKean says. \u201cIt\u2019s the Goldilock\u2019s version of new cities for me; not too big, not too small \u2013 it\u2019s just right!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Follow Megan McKean @meganmckean<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"price-style\">SHOP THE CITY<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-1219 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/product_xxlarge-e1617796268337.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2563\" height=\"3110\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.woodwood.com\/en\/product\/5429\/bethany-cotton-silk-dress\" target=\"_blank\"><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span class=\"product-style\">WOODWOOD BETHANY COTTON SILK DRESS, DHS1,300<\/span> <span class=\"price-style\">SHOP NOW<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-1220 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/hmgoepprod.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1152\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/ae.hm.com\/en\/buy-large-stoneware-sculpture-light-beige.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjwsLWDBhCmARIsAPSL3_2nVzO5xZGoZiX9m2PQr_TtUa76I1ehag3BnAtlKwotdySHIVDsMOQaAvKOEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"product-style\">H&amp;M, LARGE STONEWARE SCULPTURE, DHS169<\/span> <span class=\"price-style\">SHOP NOW<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"info-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"price-block price-block-_930180001\">\n<div class=\"price\">\n<div class=\"price-type__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"price\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-1221 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/HydroCoolFirmingEyeGels4pk-MAIN_2000x.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyniceland.com\/collections\/best-sellers\/products\/hydro-cool-firming-eye-gels-4-pack\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"product-style\">SKYN ICELAND, HYDRO COOL FIRMING EYE GELS, DHS 149<\/span> <span class=\"price-style\">SHOP NOW<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"price\"><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-1224 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/922.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><\/div>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/naturasiberica.co.uk\/products\/alladale-repairing-natural-hair-mask-120-ml?_pos=2&amp;_sid=ce834b1a1&amp;_ss=r\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"product-style\">NATURA SIBERCA AND ALLADALE, REPAIRING NATURAL HAIR MASK, DHS50<\/span> <span class=\"price-style\">SHOP NOW<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignfull-width wp-image-1225 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/me\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2021\/04\/AF0195-J83_A-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2250\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.acnestudios.com\/emea\/en\/linen-skirt-black-white\/AF0195-J83.html?categid=woman-new-arrivals\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"product-style\">ACNE STUDIOS, LINEN SKIRT BLACK\/WHITE, DHS4,740<\/span> <span class=\"price-style\">SHOP NOW<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":28819,"featured_media":1217,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[796,260],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Grazia&#039;s At Home City Guide To Malm\u00f6 - Grazia Middle East<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Along the southern tip of Sweden, Malm\u00f6 sits flat; pretty, safe, trendy, affordable and cycle-friendly.
