Honor the day / Hedra dagen

A nice way of ending the day before embracing the new, is to take a walk and enjoy the sunset. Especially in summer when the days are longer and the weather warmer. For example, one nice walk goes along the quayside. Once you have reached the Göteborg Opera turn left and walk along the water. Maybe watch the boats along the walk or just sit down and watch the sunset from one of the benches. It is powerful and peaceful at the same time. An evening walk gives a chance to reflect on the day and prepares for a good night's sleep. Thank you for this day. 🙏

Ett fint sĂ€tt att avsluta dagen innan man omfamnar den nya, Ă€r att ta en promenad och njuta av solnedgĂ„ngen. SĂ€rskilt pĂ„ sommaren nĂ€r dagarna Ă€r lĂ€ngre och vĂ€dret varmare. En trevlig promenad gĂ„r till exempel lĂ€ngs Packhuskajen. NĂ€r man nĂ„tt GöteborgsOperan tar man till vĂ€nster och gĂ„r lĂ€ngs med vattnet. Kanske titta pĂ„ bĂ„tarna lĂ€ngs vĂ€gen eller bara sitta ned och titta pĂ„ solnedgĂ„ngen frĂ„n nĂ„gon av bĂ€nkarna. Det Ă€r bĂ„de mĂ€ktigt och fridfullt samtidigt. En kvĂ€llspromenad ger chans till att reflektera över dagen och förbereder för en god natts sömn. Tack för den hĂ€r dagen. 🙏

    That is a beautiful peaceful photograph. I love looking at the sea and find it very calming.

The joy of crochet / VirkglÀdje

If someone would have told me a few years ago that someday I would start to crochet, I would never have believed them. I never really understood how people could find book reading or handcraft so relaxing, but I did envy them for it. I was more of the training type of person. But, you should never say never and not stop learning more about yourself. You can have more aptitudes then you realise. They can be well hidden and never tried. So this Christmas, after becoming interested, I was taught to crochet and I have been hooked 😊 ever since. I continued on my own with help from Youtube clips. They make it easy to just stop and try yourself at your own speed. I have since then crocheted granny squares and flowers and other techniques and I'm still appreciating the fun of being more creative. Crochet is so much more than a hobby. It is pure mindfulness. It has something to do with using your hands, just like cooking and gardening. You become calm and focused. I even heard that crochet

Enjoy the little things / Njut av de smÄ sakerna

Just think that it is so easy to long to be far away, even though you have so much beauty to explore nearby. I have lately discovered the islands around Gothenburg. Recently we went to Asperö where I have never been before. Asperö is an island in Gothenburg's southern archipelago where about 400 inhabitants live. A smaller island that I think is sometimes passed by as many instead travel to the larger islands of the archipelago. We traveled from Saltholmen boat terminal to Asperö Östra (Eastern Asperö) which is the first stop with the ferry. It only takes about 10 minutes. You can now also take ferries to the southern archipelago from Stenpiren Travel Centre. Once on the island it is quiet, there are not a lot of people and everything is very close so you do not have to walk very far. We took with us salads from the mainland and we ate these for lunch by the boat harbour. After this we walked to the small shop to buy ice cream and drinks. We decided to walk up to the top of the vie

Beautiful in every way / Vackert pÄ alla sÀtt

Sometimes you get days that are beautiful in every way. Such happiness it is to experience a Sunday in September while the summer is still around. A perfect day for a small trip. We have decided to visit Gunnebo House and Gardens that with bus from Gothenburg takes about 15 minutes to reach. As I enter the Gunnebo House environment, I immediately get a wow-feeling. Here it is beautiful like a dream and there is so much to look at of this 17th century property, which is well preserved and well maintained. I smell the lavender on our way up to the House, the lovely smell of lavender is hard to beat. In the southern garden we sit down and enjoy the sun, the surroundings and our bag of tea and fruit. After that we take a walk around Gunnebo cultural reserve and watch the cows as they rest in the shade. On our way back we walk around the kitchen garden next to Gunnebo Coffee House and Restaurant, here grows vegetables, herbs and flowers among other things. The tomatoes smell just as good
