When hubby and I are on a road trip we prefer to look for a restaurant in a countryside. It’s not quite easy if we don’t know much about the place and we just drive on the streets while we use our eyes to glance at the signs and names that resembles a restaurant. Though recently, I [...]
We were lucky to find a hotel room with a view of Lake Lugano. Since it was already dark when we arrived, we could not see how beautiful it was. In the morning, we took a chance to sit on the balcony and we realized the view of the lake was refreshing even though it [...]
After a lengthy drive from Nice we settled an overnight stay in Lugano. Hubby planned our route back home through the city though. Lugano is the 9th largest city by population in the south of Switzerland. It borders Italy and it’s the largest Italian-speaking city outside of Italy (source: Wikipedia). It was quite dark whe we [...]
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.

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 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 [...]
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 [...]
