Skiing in Sälen
When people think of Sweden, they often think of the snow first, although since moving here, I have learned there are many different Swedish seasons and each one comes with its own traditions, celebrations and scenery. However the Swedish winter is exactly what I thought it would be and the Swedes love their winter sports…
Ellery Beach House – Stockholm
Ellery Beach House is a spa resort located in the northern part of the Stockholm archipelago in an area called Lidingö. There are numerous spa resorts in the area but what made this one stand out to me was its aesthetic which is very unique. Although it is self described as Cali style, it is…
Hotell Södra Berget: Sundsvall, Sweden
When we found out that we would be travelling to Sundsvall for a regional conference we decided to use it to our advantage and book a spa trip at the Hotel Södra Berget. We booked the Sparadise package during our stay which included two nights in a standard double room with breakfast, late night access…
Yasuragi, Stockholm
Since leaving nearly two years ago now, I know I have left a little bit of my heart in Japan and with the COVID restrictions, we still haven’t been able to return. So what to do whilst we are waiting for Japan to open its borders to tourists? We decided to go to the next…

Torekov, Sweden
Next stop… Torekov. After the marinas and rocky coastlines of the northern west coast of Sweden, we packed up and headed south to another part of the Swedish west coast. This time we wanted a bit more luxury and beaches which we certainly got two hours south in a small town called Torekov. The Torekov…
Tjörn, Sweden
This summer we finally got out of Gävle to explore some of Sweden and we decided to explore two different areas of the west coast. The West of Sweden is famous for its rugged coastline and its picturesque marinas so it is no shock that we were drawn there for our first road trip. Our…
2020: A Year in Review
So where to start….? We had only two certainties about 2020 when we started the year. We were going to be leaving Japan this year and we were going to leave in the July. Apart from that, we had no plans, no idea where we were going next. It was going to be an exciting…
