In November, Stockholm averages 4°C with rain on most days. In February, lows hit -5°C and it barely gets light before 9am. Bangkok in those same months sits at 30–32°C, bone dry, and reachable non-stop from Arlanda. Norse Atlantic is flying the route from €438 return.

💰 How Far Does Your Money Go?
A pint at a Stockholm bar costs around €7. In Bangkok, a cold Singha at a street bar is €1.55. A full plate of pad thai from a market stall costs €1.65, less than a Stockholm coffee. Budget a generous €50 per day and you're eating well, moving around by tuk-tuk, and still saving money. In a week, you'd spend less on food than a single dinner back home.
☀️ The Weather
Stockholm in November is 4°C and wet, rain on most days. By February, highs barely reach 0°C, lows fall to -5°C at night, and the city gets around six hours of daylight. Bangkok in both months sits between 28°C and 32°C. November is the start of the dry season: clear skies, lower humidity. February is peak season, near-perfect weather with almost no rain. The gap is about as stark as it gets.
