Sightseeing
A great nature reserve along the coast just outside of Visby. It's a short bit from my apartment, and glorious in the sunset (or -rise!)

Drinks & Nightlife
Great pub food (really!), large selection of beers and whiskey. Very friendly staff and atmosphere. Oh, and a severely under-appreciated garden to sit in when the weather allows. Love this place.
