    Photo Gallery: Stockholm by Ferry

    Photo Gallery: Stockholm by Ferry

    We wrote a little tip about exploring Stockholm by ferry yesterday. Because I’m a visual person I thought it would be nice to add a few more photos from our ride: a trip around the Swedish archipelago by ferry on a beautifully sunny spring day. You can scroll through the photos here or in full [...]

    Stockholm – More than a Pretty Town

    Stockholm – More than a Pretty Town

    The last few days, we’ve been talking about what there’s to do in Stockholm. The usual things would came up: the old town, the hip and young Sodermalm, the museums and the seafront walks. All those things are great. The one stand-out I’d like to talk about here is one of my personal favorites: the [...]

    SOOPic: Valborgsmassoafton

    SOOPic: Valborgsmassoafton

    Swedes get pumped about the Spring. You can’t blame them – Sweden is cold and a bit dreary for most of the winter. Come spring, people need to blow off a little winter depression with a fresh helping of booze. Lots and lots of booze.   The Valborgsmassoafton festival takes place every 30th of April. [...]

    Eating on the Road: An Adventure of Loss and Gain

    Eating on the Road: An Adventure of Loss and Gain

    “I’m really fat right now!” Martin declared, out of the blue.   This honest expletive was made last night during our evening sauna. Grabbing a little (microscopic, really) bulge on his stomach, he looked up at me in a slight state of shock. Having been a life-long skinny guy, this new addition was a bit [...]

    Driving Up Traffic to Our Little Site

    Driving Up Traffic to Our Little Site

    We’re on a little detour from our trip – a month spent at Martin’s parent’s home in Northern Sweden – which means two things: home cooked food and free, limitless internet.   So, I’m eating all the stodgy food I can fit in while finally getting around to back-end work on the website. First up: [...]

    Palt: Yummy, Simple and Very Filling

    Palt: Yummy, Simple and Very Filling

    Back in the olden days, when people worked the fields and forests, food in this cold part of the world was made to be rich, stodgy and VERY high in calories. Nowadays people probably don’t have to work that hard anymore, but it is still cold. Hence, it can be good to know how to [...]

    For Sale

    For Sale

    This is the church in Sangis. It is the site of my first six end-of-school ceremonies; a place where we have married and buried many of our relatives. At age 14, I went through the confirmation procedure here. On one November day almost fifty years ago, my parents were married here.   Over the years, [...]

    Mom Plus Sweden Equals Heart

    Mom Plus Sweden Equals Heart

    You packed your bag two weeks ago, boarded a plane on your own and flew to a country you’d never been to before. You ate food you’d never eaten, baked bread like a champ and brought a little San Diego sunshine with you.   Thank you, Mom. Thank you for making the long trip to [...]

    Introducing Mom to the Swedish Sauna

    Introducing Mom to the Swedish Sauna

    We all (and by all, I mean anyone that isn’t Scandinavian) know what a proper sauna is. It’s a hot room that you sit in for a while, then move onto something more stimulating, right?   Well, it took marrying a Swede to realize that I knew exactly nada-nothing-zilch about saunas. They really know how [...]

    The Family Woodshop

    The Family Woodshop

    Martin’s family have been in the wood business in one way or another for a number of generations. Rolf, Martin’s dad, is a carpenter – just like his father before him. We took a stroll down memory lane with a visit to the family workshop a few days ago. Rolf and his brother Curt gave [...]

    The Couple That Braids Together

    The Couple That Braids Together

    An old Swedish proverb says, “A couple that braids together, stays together.”   OK, fine. That’s not necessarily a Swedish proverb. Actually, I’m not sure anyone has said that before, but I’m saying it now.   So, on that note, here’s my recipe for relationship success: a touch (aka a few bottles) of wine, a [...]

    The Mother of All Delays

    The Mother of All Delays

    My mother in law is here. A dark, ominous cloud hang above us. No. It’s not like that. It’s just that we’re now affected by the same thing as millions of other people around the world: the volcanic ash cloud above. You know the one – it has caused most of Europe to close its [...]

    Diaper Pants – A Global Phenomenon

    Yes, I promised that my last post on the subject would be my last.   Well, call me what you will – a liar, a hater maybe – but the Diaper Pants rant is back. This time, it’s a Swedish edition.   I saw these for sale in Lulea, northern Sweden’s largest town. The reflection [...]

    A Nerdy 80 Year Old Woman at Heart

    A Nerdy 80 Year Old Woman at Heart

    You may have noticed that I call Martin out on his nerdiness a lot. I do it because I can. If a wife can’t use the internet to poke fun at her amazing husband, where can she?   In the name of fairness, I have to make a confession: I’m a nerd, too.   I [...]

    Baking Bread Sangis Style

    Baking Bread Sangis Style

    I stand corrected! Can you believe it?   The baking house, in which we baked a boat-load of bread last summer (check out our video of it here), is not a Swedish tradition – it’s only a tradition in this area of Sweden. So, as I said, I stand corrected. I guess it’s just these [...]
