Hello there! Home sweet home is the first thing that comes to mind right now, after three weeks and a half on the road. It was a fantastic holiday, though. I think that we learned a lot on the way. We also saw some truly fascinating places – from picturesque small German […]

Decadence and decadent are two of my favorite words in the English language. They hold a promise of adventure, secrecy, recklessness, and of course a small dose of luxury. I think that being able to travel as much as we do add some decadence to our lives. Here’s a more […]
Not too far from my office, there is a lake. The name of the lake is Råstasjön and it’s where I usually head if I want a 30-minute walk during my workday. It is great during the lunch breaks and a chance to get some fresh air. What surprised me a […]
We want to travel as much as possible, to see as much of the world as we can. However, in order to cure some of the more sudden bursts of wanderlust, we have brought a piece of the world into our living room. World maps, decorations from various trips, photos, […]
It’s Sunday night and all I can say is wow – what a week! I’m feeling quite lazy after an eventful week in two beautiful Nordic capitals. This week we had our kitchen fixed, Stockholm drowned in snow, and I also paid a quick visit to Helsinki. Oh, and I […]

There are days when you wake up, the sun is shining and everything feels so right. Laying in the bed, looking out the window and enjoying the short moment before the alarm once more will ring. Well, I still haven’t decided how long time to snooze in the morning, but […]
Restless feet on a Saturday morning. This post was written on a typical Saturday in February. At the time of writing, the snow is covering the ground again – not slowly as it usually does, but very quickly. My thoughts wander to sunny beaches, hectic cities, crowded markets, and cosy […]
The Fathala Wildlife Reserve in Senegal is located to the north of the Gambia, very near the border. Most tour operators offer day trips to Fathala. The trip from the resorts in the Gambia includes an interesting ferry ride, a border crossing, and wild animals. Be prepared to spend a day […]
Week 1 of 2016 is coming to an end and it’s now time to make a summary of the week. As we started the new year in Bratislava, Slovakia, quite a few of our posts this week have been about the Central European capital. Here’s a recap of what we talked […]
