My paternity leave is still continuing and the summer saw several trips. One of the more recent is a trip to the far north of Sweden. This time actually without Susann. Instead, Little A and I boarded a flight to Kiruna and joined my parents for the weekend. My parents […]
Driving in Greece is something that I have always dreaded and when we decided to spend a month in Athens it was already set – no driving. Mood, time and location can, however, change your mindset. Driving in Greece was eventually a reality. Not in Athens (that will probably never […]
It’s time to talk travel plans! August is here, and as I sit here in my parents’ living room I hear the rain. Hello autumn, I say, and start dreaming away. Actually we do have some travel plans that I’d like to share with you. Our Travel Plans for Autumn […]
Visting Kefalonia was definitely one of the absolute highlights during our trip to Greece, Our last day on the island was a calm one. The day before we had seen so much on our little road trip, so we thought it would be a good idea to relax. There were […]
The Greek island of Kefalonia is a great many things. For one, as we have written here, its capital Argostoli is very cosy. However, as the town isn’t very big, we decided that we would spend our second day exploring the island. As a taxi driver told us, if you’re […]
While planning our trip to Greece, we knew for sure that we wanted to visit one of its famous islands. It did not take us long to choose the island of Kefalonia and its capital Argostoli. Kefalonia – or Cephalonia as it is also spelt in English, is the largest […]

The ancient sites with all their ruins are scattered all around Greece, but there are a few of them that probably were more important than others. Ancient Corinth is at the Isthmus of Corinth, the isthmus that connects Peloponnese peninsula with the rest of mainland Greece. Once you see the […]
One of the things we like about traveling is the possibility to go on day trips. From Athens, there are quite a few different options. One of the places we knew we’d like to visit was about an hour from the Greek capital. The only question we had to find […]
