Meet Josefin Haraldsson, STockholm Tourism Board

WTJ:  What inspired you to become a tourism professional?
I studied and worked abroad for several years and got to meet end experience so many new and interesting people and cultures. My travels inspired me and I realized that I wanted to work internationally. Getting people to discover my beautiful hometown really make me proud.

My #1 must-have while on vacation is...Good company. And food. And sleep in’s J  
I don't travel without... my IPhone! For travel documents, photos, social media, contacts.. how did we manage before?!

My packing ritual... I am really a very good packer.  I always manage to fit a little bit more than you think possible. Which is good when you‘ve been away, end up shopping a lot and forgot to bring that extra bag you thought of.

The best advice I ever got was...When it comes to visit a new sight or attraction – never explore without a guide. The experience will be so much better if you get some history and story behind it to make it come alive.   

This year I'm going to... India.
