Read all about our travels! For us, traveling is a hobby, a passion, a way of life. Here you can join us on our adventures in Europe, Africa, North America, South America, and Asia. We have been to many countries, but there are still many left on our list. Not only do we write about the places we have been to. We also want to share tips and travel inspiration with you. Come along as we travel the world!
As always, we appreciate your comments. And remember, let us know if you have any questions!
Our fourth full day in Athens is coming to an end. Today we really have been taking it easy and we really needed it. Maybe because there was thunder in the air? Still, we managed to walk over 10,000 steps and experienced a great deal of Greek hospitality. People seem to be genuinely interested and…
One of the highlights of staying abroad for a longer period of time is the fact that you get the chance to discover the place in a completely different way. For instance, we probably wouldn’t have gone to Piraeus, had we only come here for a few days. The morning started just like most other…
Syntagma Square lies in the heart of Athens and it is a historical, political, and social center of the Greek capital. Today’s mission was to go to Syntagma Square, visit the National Garden, and perhaps grab an ice cream on the go. Starting Slowly Little A must think that she has the most boring parents…
Finding a cool oasis in the center of Athens during a hot summer day might be a challenge. The shades offered by the green trees and other plants in the National Garden will probably give you that much-needed cool. A Bit More About the National Garden The National Garden (in Greek Εθνικός Κήπος) has previously also…
I have been to the Greek capital twice before but it is quite some time ago now. We arrived in Athens late last night and this morning our plan was to sleep late. However, Little A did not agree with us. At 8 a.m. local time she decided to wake us up. We gave her…
There was a bit of tension in the air this morning. The feeling of new adventures is around the corner. This is something we really like about traveling, there is always something new to be excited about. We have just arrived and we now have four weeks to look forward to in the Greek capital…
Sometimes a place becomes your home for a couple of years. However, once you move away you will not return as often as you first had thought. Linköping is that place for me. I lived there most of the time between 2008 and 2012 but have not returned since. Well, that was until today when…
Well hello there! I can’t believe it’s already the end of April. One month from now we will be enjoying some sunshine and great food in Greece. This spring has been so hectic; after visiting Lahti in Finland, I also made a short trip to London. England was more business than pleasure this time. I…
For the last few days, Little A and I have been enjoying and exploring Trosa and Vagnhärad. There are occasions that are a bit more challenging than others. Then there are occasions that are not even close to as challenging as you thought they would be. That is the case for me the last few…
April 7th, 2017 is a date that affected us all and will be affecting Stockholm for a long time to come. It was a day when terror struck the Swedish capital, We were, however, lucky that the events that day only caused disruptions to our plans. Others were not as fortunate. Now a year afterward…
Have you heard about the Moomins? If you have, then you have probably heard of Naantali or Nådendal (the Swedish name) as well. It is here that the amusement park dedicated to the white creatures is located. We are back in Sweden after a week in neighboring Finland. We visited Lahti for most of the…
We had a great holiday plan when we entered the ferry last Tuesday evening. Our plan was to see as many places as possible and visit relatives. Oh well, sometimes life doesn’t go the way you want it to go. The cold hit Little A first. As a result, we all slept poorly as she…
