When I’m planning an Italian holiday the food is always something I’m looking forward to well in advance. Gelato, espresso, wine, pasta, … it’s not exactly healthy but it’s perfect soul food and there’s nothing like a glass of aperol spritz on ice or cool rosé wine at 6 o’clock when the sun is beginning to … Read More
Venice Travel Diary – Part 1
Ah, Venice! I have always wanted to visit this magical place but somehow I’d never been until this week. I had read so many books about the history of Venice and stories that were set there so I had a lot of images in my mind. But I couldn’t really imagine what it would be like … Read More
One day in Porto
With femtastics I was invited to Portugal last week. I got to visit Porto during one very warm and sunny afternoon and drove around the Douro valley, one of portugal’s prettiest wine-growing-districts (this is where port wine is from, originally). It was my first time in Portugal so I did my best to soak up … Read More
London discoveries
Whenever I come to London I feel an excitement that is a mix between coming home to a familiar, loved city and anticipating all the new places I’d like to explore (because there are always so many great new places in London!). So, naturally, I was very happy to spend a full three days in the … Read More

It was my sister’s graduation from Gothenburg University, so of course we took the opportunity to celebrate with her and spend some time in this lovely city again. I have already shared some impressions and travel tips for Gothenburg with … Read More

Tulúm Travel Diary – Part 1
Here’s the first part of my travel diary about Tulúm, Mexico! I wanted to write it as soon as I could, before the memory of sand underneath my feet, hot nights with the background sounds of tropical birds, sleeping under thatched roofs, and waking up to the sunrise over the ocean and the sound of … Read More
Packing for Tulúm
Maybe you have seen my mood board. Times flies. Now it’s only a couple more days until we are leaving for Tulúm. Here are some of the things I will pack: Boho blouse, vintage Levi’s shorts and vintage leather bag, a bracelet that my sister made for me, “The Secret History” by Donna Tartt, and hair … Read More
25 hours in Berlin
I’m in Berlin quite regularly, but usually for work appointments – which means I never have the time to check out that restaurant or breakfast place I read about, to meet friends, … etc. So last weekend my boyfriend and me made a trip to Berlin “for pleasure”, as airport immigration would say, in order … Read More
What to buy in Copenhagen
I did a quick trip to Copenhagen this week for Copenhagen Fashion Week. Between fashion trade fairs and shows there was just enough free time for a little walk around the city centre and some obligatory shopping. Because when in Denmark, you have to buy Danish home accessories (I would say “furniture” if it was … Read More
