Let me tell you about one of the dresses I’ve been wearing the most the last month. It’s a casual, flowy maxi dress from Free People in a shade between granite and lavender. It has been perfect for days at the beach with only a bikini underneath. It has worked great for parties with a [...]

I’m having the greatest weekend here in Kalmar together with my family and my husband who finally came here on Friday. Yesterday we had a swedish traditional crayfish party which I’ll share some photos from soon. But for now, here are some snapshots of Kalmar that I’ve taken during the past few weeks. I have [...]

My Friday and Saturday in Stockholm last week were filled with fun activities! Like meeting friends I hadn’t seen in way too long and some relaxing time on the beach. Our first stop on Friday morning was Långholmen. It’s a cute little beach right in the middle of the city and just five minutes from [...]

I realized I have yet to tell you about the rest of our little trip out to Utö in the Stockholm Archipelago last week. After this amazing morning by the sea we took the small trail back to the village. Every corner of this little island is so idyllic with its typical red cottages, dirt [...]

I realize that I haven’t done one proper outfit post since I came to Sweden and that has a simple explanation. I have mostly worn whatever happens to be clean out of my suitcase and not really bothered to put any effort into what I’m wearing. I didn’t bring that much clothes so I’ve been [...]

As we departed with the boat I snapped this first picture of a city bathing in sunlight and reminded myself how beautiful our capital is. [...]

Yesterday night I came back from a fantastic week in Stockholm, exhausted but so so happy! I’ve really taken a break from everything this week (didn’t even check my emails in a week!) and it was well needed I can tell you! I have simply enjoyed Stockholm and it’s beautiful surrounding nature together with my [...]

Tomorrow morning I’m finally off to spend a week with my friends in Stockholm – I’m so excited! I haven’t seen most of them since last summer at my wedding so you can imagine we have some catching up to do. I’ll also spend a couple of days in the beautiful archipelago before I return [...]

This morning I have enjoyed things I have missed most about Sweden, during one year now. Like filmjölk with blueberries and the Sunday newspaper. The blueberries in Sweden have twice as much taste in half the size of the American ones – I just can’t have enough of them! I’ve also been having breakfast in [...]
