  • Southbound

    I’m on my way home. Today I left Stockholm driving south again. But I’ve decided to make a few stops along the way. Today, I’m staying in Karlskrona. The RV parking is right at the harbour. It’s a sunny (but only 9°C cold) evening. Thus I’m keeping warm staying inside. It was a reasonably long…

  • Lunch

    Short lunch break at the Mälaren with a view over to the Stadshuset, Stockholm’s town hall.

  • Chai Tea Latte

    You might get the impression, that I’m moving from one café to the other. Let me tell you something: you are right! Sitting at the Chokladkoppen in the Old Town. Probably one of the best spots in central Stockholm and I always enjoy coming back here. The chai latte is excellent, freshly brewed and I’m…

  • Cup of tea and a book

    After a visit to Skansen this morning, I am now back in the city centre taking a short break from … well, I’m sitting down for a cup of Earl Grey tea and my book enjoying my holidays in Stockholm!

  • Sweden

    I’m off to Sweden for a couple of days. For the first time I’m taking Stena Line’s morning ferry from Rostock to Trelleborg. I left Hamburg yesterday and arrived at the terminal in the evening. Just because it felt convenient, I parked at the terminal for the night. There was another camper there already and…

  • Venus (not the tennis player) shining brightly

    Another beautiful morning with clear skies and Venus (as well as the half moon) still brightly shining over the twilight. At -12C it was chilly, but fantastic to take the dog out for another walk across the ice. I’m still more focused on taking her out, thus only iPhone snapshots as I didn’t take my…

  • The other side of winter

    Just to show that it is not always sunny: What a foggy morning and still a nice walk over the ice with the dog. She was equally excited to be out. That, by the way, is what the fir plugged into the ice is for: Marking your way! Thus, I had a lovely walk and…

  • Gammelstad Kyrkbyn

    Gammelstad Church Village, a UNESCO world heritage site, is beautiful both in the summer and in the snow. Its wood-built houses were only used on Sundays or big church holidays by those worshipers from the countryside who could not return on the same day because of the distance they had to travel home. Today, most…

  • Snow…!

    Today’s -5 C feel almost warm. I didn’t even put on my gloves for the first couple of minutes walking the dog – strange as it may sound, but it was almost warm. And my nose didn’t freeze. The weather is beautiful and I had a wonderful winter walk on the ice around the little…
