Travel Diary: Sunshine Coast Part 1
Did I start crying immediately when I wrote the title to this blog post? Yes. Yes, I did. Sunshine Coast was my home in 2016 and in December, I finally got to go back for the first time since then. It was so weird to be back in some way, and so natural in another….
Travel Diary: Queenstown & Milford Sound Part 3
And we have reached my final travel diary from New Zealand! I still have 5 days left from Australia to write about before I’m completely done with my Pacific Ocean trip. It’s been three months since this trip, but with everything going on in the world right now, it honestly feels like a lifetime ago. Has there…
Travel Diary: Queenstown Part 2
What do you do when you travel to the adventure capital of the world? Go on an adventure, of course! When we researched Queenstown in New Zealand, we found out that they had the world’s biggest swing. I thought it looked amazing, so I gave my little brother a tandem ride with me on it…
CORONA
Even people that live under a rock can’t have missed what’s going on in the world right now. I planned to not write anything about Corona on this blog. I changed my mind yesterday though when the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs discouraged everyone to go abroad for at least a month. This is the…
Travel Diary: Queenstown Part 1
Let’s continue with my trip around the Pacific Ocean which I did in December. After Sydney, it was time to head over to New Zealand and the adventure capital of the world, Queenstown. We never went to New Zealand when we lived in Australia in 2016, and I said that I’m not going to fly across…
Travel Diary: Helsinki
Three weeks ago, I took a short trip to the capital of Finland. I have been to Helsinki many times before, last time was in 2018 when I went there on a free cruise. This time was also with a free cruise (Christmas gift from the cruise company Viking Line) and who says no to a free trip? Haha! I…
Travel Diary: Stendörren
At the beginning of February, I took a day trip to Stendörren nature reserve with my friend Annie. Annie had been to Stendörren before and I thought this was my first time – until my parents informed me that I have been there as a kid. Oh well, I didn’t remember a thing so it was like an…
Bucket List – Spring 2020
Can anyone tell me where the 2 first months of 2020 went? Because I have no idea. My body and mind are currently craving warmer weather so I don’t mind the winter months passing by quickly. Bring on the spring! It’s easier to achieve your goals when you write them down, so I thought it…
Travel Diary: Sydney Part 3
And just like that, we have reached my last travel diary from Sydney. Why am I saying “just like that”? I got home from my trip around the Pacific Ocean two months ago and still aren’t done, haha. Anyway, here is what our last day in Sydney looked like, which was quite special in a bad way….
Travel Diary: Sydney Part 2
On our second day in Sydney, we had our eyes set on Bondi Beach. I mean, did you even visit Sydney if you didn’t touch the Opera House and take a swim at Bondi Beach? Haha! We had read that there’s a beautiful coastal walk leading to Bondi and decided to walk it. Said and done, after breakfast, we…
Travel Diary: Sydney Part 1
After our 9 day long cruise, we arrived back to Sydney, Australia on December 8th. We arrived in the morning and my boyfriend, my dad and I got up at 5 am to watch the arrival from up on deck. Arriving at Sydney by ship while the sun rises is not something you do every…
Travel Diary: At Sea Part 2
When we sailed away from Lifou, we had two days at sea before we got back to Australia. I was almost as bad at taking photos during these days at sea as I was on the first two days of this cruise. One morning though, I decided to go on a little photography stroll. I…
