The hiking trail Utö Runt is a gem among jewels! The association Destination Utö has done a phenomenal job with this trail - it constantly wants to return to the ocean. You really feel how…
One evening I spontaneously applied for an extensive, and expensive, course at Swedens most well-renowned massage school - Axelsons Gymnastiska Institut. So a year later I found myself being a massage therapist. I have always…
The seaside town of Kep is famous for its blue crab. A string of wooden shack restaurants and a small (but hugely smelly) marketplace along the seaside make up the Crabmarket of Kep. The restaurants…
One of my favourite places on earth is the region of Languedoc-Roussillon in the south of France. Good enough wines, the Mediterranean, awsome weather and rustic food. My parents bought their first summer apartment in…

Today I finally got to see Ralph Erskines “Lådan” - a two-room house built in 1942. The first Erskine building I ever saw was Hotell Borgafjäll and although I was very young at time it…
It's impossible not to be fascinated by the people, much the same way they were curious about us. I think it is fair to say we got our picture take just as much as we…
Maybe a little longer, but effectivly only 4 hours. It was enough for this time. I met a customer from the shop at a temple around the Boudhanath stupa - thankfully she was happy with the…
This part was the deal for me. A trek on the outskirts of Kanchenjunga Conservation area, to the tempel Pathibhara Devi on 3800 masl. We started at Suketar, walked to roads to Kaplepathi and from…

Today we visited the town of Panauti, a town built on a huge rock and thus not affected by the earthquake of 2015. Also, since built on a rock, the inhabitants are forbidden to use…
Today is my first day in Nepal travelling with 12 fellow Swedes and 2 guides; Jenny and BJ from Beyondborders Nepal. I’ve been longing for this trip for so long know it feels amazing to…
Homemade ice cream has never been easier - a jar of dulce de leche, double cream and perhaps a seasoning and it's all done! I myself love croquant- on ice cream, on top of muffins,…

An apple cake with chopped chocolate in the batter, lots of ground hazelnuts for a really nutty taste and even more chocolate drizzled over - could it be better ?! This is a cake so…
Adding root vegetables to your bread gives it a healthier touch and makes it incredible moist. In this bread I mixed beetroot and carrots and topped it off with pumpkin-, sesame- and hemp seeds. Sooo…

The apple and caramel work so well together! These super tasty apple muffins have raw apples in the batter, apple sauce in the middle (which you should do yourself but I have not yet done…
The pastures were beautiful on the way up and filled with calm cows and aggressive goats… Looking in another directions there was nothing but black sand and stone – almost like Teneriffa, or Iceland I…
Berglisee - could it be any more beautiful on my first day hiking in Paznauntal?! The hike took just about an hour and was fairly easy even for office-legs like mine. The trail went through…
Finally - after a year of really hard work I have landed in the Austrian Alps. To be more specific: Ischgl in the Paznauntal in Tyrol. The Paznaun Valley is surrounded by the mountain ranges…
I’m so fond of my cute and tiny mini loaf tins – what comes out is a perfectly sized cake for a Swedish afternoon “fika” (or coffeebreak as the rest of the world calls it!)!…
For christmas this year I decided to skip Sweden with my son and enjoy a week in New York. I've been there enough times so I let Mac decide what he wanted to do so…
