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!
It is soon time to go. We have been waiting for quite some time now to go on our trip – it’s been too long since we were abroad! For the last few days we have been visiting Jesper’s parents here in Vagnhärad and it is from here that we will start our trip down south….
Soon, soon it’s time for us to hit the road and head for France and back. I’m really looking forward to our trip as I haven’t been abroad for ages! It’s especially exciting as it’s Little A’s first proper trip abroad. Now the question is how to prepare for three weeks away from home. I…
Are you looking for a cozy day trip in the Stockholm area? A place where you can dip your toes into the sea and enjoy delicious ice cream? There are several small towns near the Swedish capital Stockholm that are worth a visit. Vaxholm is one of these towns and it is located on an island…
Today we saw a small portion of Swedish history when we walked to Lundby and the rune stone in Sund. We have been spending the weekend with my parents in Vagnhärad and for once we have been quite lucky with the weather. The sun has been shining more than usual, at least compared to the…
Time flies this time of the year and we are struggling to find time for everything we want to do. We spent the last weekend on Åland. Well, Susann and little A took the ferry from Kapellskär already the weekend earlier. I joined them at her parents’ house on Wednesday evening. My parents joined us…
When you are on the ferry crossing the Baltic Sea, there is one particular object that tells you that you will soon be in Mariehamn. On the first islets that catch your attention, one of the very first glimpses of land, there is a house and a small pyramid. What you see is Kobba Klintar, an…
Are you planning a visit to the countryside on the Åland Islands? Are you looking for things to do and see? Do you fancy something out of the ordinary? Today we tell you about the sawmill in Lumparland – the smallest municipality on mainland Åland. In the forest, at Krickulla near Lumparby, you will find…
It sometimes happens that you write a plan. A plan that you consider to be really good. A plan that you, later on, make even better by completely remaking it. That is kind of what happened with the plan for our “Journey to France and Back” We were really satisfied with it and now we…
About ten weeks ago we became parents. I think most parents can relate to the fact that the change is immense, and our lives feel very different now. As I write this, Little A peacefully sleeps next to me and little does she know what we have in store for her. If it’s up to…
One year ago we stood in a beautiful room in the Town Hall of Stockholm. On that hot day, we got married. And wow, what a year it has been! We have spent quite a bit of time abroad. I remember a notebook I had as a teenager, on the cover, there was the following quote…
There are a few places on the Åland Islands that we have passed by a few times. And each time, we comment that “this looks nice, maybe we should stop sometime”. As is usually the case, we keep on driving. One place we actually took our time to see recently is the Lemström Canal not…
The Åland Islands is a small place with a lot of history. We have previously written about Kungsö Battery in Jomala, but that is not the only demolished battery on the islands. Another such place is the Sålis battery. It is located in Hammarland, one of the central municipalities. Built by the Russians, the purpose of…
