I really enjoy quotes, so let’s go on a journey around the world to find some wise words to inspire us today. Of course they are all somehow related to traveling – this is a travel blog, after all. Wise Words From Finland Tove Jansson is perhaps one of the most famous Finnish writers –…
At 8 o’clock on Saturday morning, Jesper woke me up with the words “I want to go somewhere for a day trip“. We thought about it for a while. The city center was out of the question due to the half marathon. We had been talking about Uppsala for quite some time but never actually…
Day one of our visit to London was dedicated to walking. The next day we woke up with somewhat sore feet and decided to enjoy the comfort of a nice hotel bed. We did not have much on the agenda, knowing that we had to head to the airport at 2 pm. We also had…

Yesterday morning we got up from bed quite early. We had a bus to the airport to catch as new adventures were planned for this weekend. The alarms had been set to 4:30 A.M. and we were in sleepy mode as we left home and walked to the bus stop on the other side of…
