The most exciting part of a road trip is driving through different cities and discover their distinct features and attractions. I am particularly interested in architectures and when on a road trip I could not help but admire some exterior structural designs. However, when we drove from Nice to Monaco we admired the sceneries from [...]
The Film showing at Götaplatsen in Gothenburg is one of the highlights of Christmas in the city. The show starts at 4:30 p.m until as late as 9:00 p.m. I saw the premiere showing right after the lighting of Gothenburg Christmas lights on 7 December. The film show will end on 31 December. It’s a [...]
Here’s a video of the exterior look of the Etnapolis Shopping Centre in Catania, Sicily. It’s one of the biggest shopping centres in Italy and Europe. We truly admired the view we saw on the walls of the building.
I wanted to capture a video of the oranges at the highway but it wasn’t that easy. It was impossible to go down the speed limit on the road where oranges were just a crash-barrier away. It was my first time to see so many orange trees so I was a bit ecstatic. Hubby was the one driving and [...]
It’s my first time to join Vår Ruset yesterday at Slottsskogen (park). It’s a yearly race for women here in Sweden and Gothenburg had its turn yesterday. It happens in the month of May when Spring is at its best. All women at work or in different organizations are welcome to join. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a bit of luck [...]
We saw this blazing view of a sunset while we were driving through Switzerland. I managed to take a clear picture while the car was running. Pretty amazing sight. It was one fine winter day in January and this part of Switzerland seemed to be a good place to see a beautiful sunset on the [...]
While strolling on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice we came across a site that made us stop and wonder what it was. The inscription on the stone was in French but some words were comprehensible enough to grasp that it’s for the victims of an accident or something. But the date took so much of [...]
So this is how Torre Agbar looks by day. It’s absolutely stunning at nights when it illuminates in different colors. When we looked closer it seemed to be a wall of glass windows around the tower. It doesn’t look that beautiful by day as it does in the night but it’s interesting enough to make [...]
Before I learned to drive a car I could only sit and lay back when I would be on the road with hubby. He could drive for hours, until I’d ask him to stop at a closest rest area to stretch my legs. When we’d drive to southern Europe from Sweden we’d take the Autobahn, Germany’s freeway. There are small roads [...]
France is one of the most gorgeous countries in the world, with serene countryside, exquisite architecture and cuisine that makes you want to move there. Not everybody visits France for its history, or even because they are visiting a friend though. Some go there for the casinos. Despite the fact that different types of gambling, [...]

Online Catalogues For Easier Shopping
Shopping online is a trending activity in front of the computer. It’s, however, a decisive choice to browse for catalogues online before indulging into excessive shopping. The eckersleys art craft catalogue, for instance, gives an overview of the products for art and craft enthusiasts.
Quite a late post about the start of Advent observation here but it has just started and just one of the four candles has been lighted. This is one event in this country that I don’t want to miss. Each year I spend time preparing my place for Advent. My kitchen window will always look [...]
To be honest, I hadn’t eaten these small, bite-sized dessert until a few months ago when we entered our room at Sheraton Hotel in Stockholm. I didn’t even know it was called French Macarons. I learned the name on Pinterest when I saw some pinned photos which I thought kind of well-known to me. I thought they’re just plain cookies but when I [...]
Decorative Pumpkins for Halloween
Halloween is just around the corner and some children can’t really wait to dress up scary. I always prepare goodies and candies just in case they come to ring the doorbell and rant “trick or treat?” in chorus. I’m not used to decorating my home for halloween but a tint of orange or yellow as a [...]

We thought our final gathering at work this time would be uninteresting since we were told that the administration would not be treating us a free Christmas smorgasbord (julbord). We were instead told to have potluck, which sounded more or less pleasing to everyone. But it turned out to be a smorgasbord (smörgåsbord) of international food culture. From pasta to pirogue, spring rolls [...]
Revisiting National Museums of World Culture
This autumn break has been relaxing for me despite the paperworks I’ve needed to be done. But that’s the life of a teacher – working a little on school breaks. We’ve had to work for three days this week and yesterday, the final day, was a competency development at the Swedish National Museums of World Culture. The [...]
