Hi everyone! I’m finally back in Sweden after my 3 week vacation in the states. I already wrote about my trip to Dallas, so now I’m going to write about my time in New York City.

This was my first trip to New York (and the US for that matter) And there was so much to do and see, so this post will be very picture heavy!
On to the review and pictures —v

Hi! So, I’m no longer in Dallas, but I thought I’d make a better update about my visit there. It was so much fun! but REALLY hot! most of the time it was around 95-105°F (35-40°C). I like heat, but thank god for AC. wouldn’t have survived without it. Okay, so, lots of pictures ahead!

Hello from Texas! I have poor internet connection here… but now I finally get to update my blog. ^^ And well, Dallas is HOT. it’s very nice though (at least when you have AC). Oh and also, I cut my hair just before I got here. ^^;; so now it’s really short.


I also colored it to a brighter tone.
But I think I need to bleach it to get the tone I want.

Read more and see pictures! –v

Hello again. I’ve been in Stockholm over the weekend. Now I’m sitting on a 7 hour bus ride back to Oslo. Thank god they have free internet on the bus. A lot of things has happened the past week. And I’ve been working a lot. Something has happened quite recently that I haven’t had the time to process yet… It’s not about me but about a very good friend of mine. I want to show my support but i literarily can’t. not the way I want to anyway. It’s frustrating. All I can do is wait… I can’t speak or write about it here anyway.

And of course I’ve been spending as much time as I possibly can with my boyfriend. Since he’s leaving for a road trip in the US very soon ;__; so I’ve been visiting him in Värmland and Stockholm over the weekends.

I miss him already ( ;∀;)

Japan. I don’t know what to say. For everyone who are affected… I can’t even begin to imagine the feeling. I hope everyone I know is okay.

And three days ago I was complaining about the snow.
I feel so stupid.

 

Hello! We are now home from our spa-weekend at Yasuragi, which was amazing. It was so relaxing, and the food was delicious. Here is a short review!

.☆.・∴.・∵☆:*・∵.:*・☆.☆.。.:*,★ :*・∵.:☆.。.:*・:*・∵.☆:*・∵.゜

We had booked something called “Harmony” that included:
- 2 bed room with breakfast buffet.
- Japanese christmas dinner
- Activities, e.g meditation, qi gong
- Japanese bath.
- Tea and fruit buffet.
- Yukata (bath robe), slippers and swimwear.
(We got to walk around in Yakutas all day! cozy) ( ̄∀ ̄)

The dinner buffet:
For starters we had various sushi and sashimi dishes, and they were servred as Kaiten Sushi where the plates with the sushi are placed on a rotating conveyor belt.

For the main course we also had several different dishes. We also has s personal chef at our table that cooked the food in front of us! and oh my god it was so delicious. remined me very much of the food I had when I was in Tokyo earlier this year.

We also had dessert, and it was a buffet as well. my favourite was a white chocolate mousse flavored with a japanese plum wine called “Umeshu”. Umeshu is my favourite liqueur, and I ordered some drinks with umeshu in the bar. I like it on the rocks (rokku de!) I used to drink it all the time when I was in Japan. But it’s soooo expensive here in Sweden (*´Д`*)

But, of course, our favorite thing to do was to lay around in the Hot Springs in the bath area. They were outside, but the water was really warm so we could lay there for hours! soooo relaxing.

I didn’t have any treatments (massages or so) though, because they were kind of pricy.. They’re probably all worth it though, but I didn’t feel I could afford it right now. And my boyfriend is a massage therapist so he gave me lots of massage anyway. (´ω`)♥

Well, this was my first spa experience ever, so I had a really great time! I will definitley go back sometime. ━━(゚∀゚)━━!!♥♥

Hello! Today me and my boyfriend Johan is going to a spa called Yasuragi. It is my birthday present from Johan and my mom. They are so sweet! I’ve never been to a spa before som I’m really excited. It’s a japanese-themed spa where you can enjoy japanese baths, food and treatments/activities (such as massage and meditation). You get to walk around in yakutas all day. We’re also going to stay the night. I think it will be wonderful.

Ok so I’m still at Dreamhack. Everyone is like 14 years old. Or not. not really. There’s so much going on here! so many game tournaments, artists (Alice in Videoland, SMK, Svenska Björnstammen for example) and much more. Also, lots of laser!

And loooots of computers (。・ω・。)

Hello. I’m back from Tunisia. Back in the cold north.. I went from 30-40°C
to like 10°C ;___; it’s freezing! oh well. it’s good to be home though.
it’s quiet. Sousse is kinda’ noisy. I would like to tell you all about it,
but right now my mind is blank. but I’ll post some pictures!

I went to Tunisia together with my boyfriend Johan. We lived a few km
north of Sousse, in a place called Port El Kantaoui.
It was nice, and very clean compared to Sousse.

We also went on a trip to El Jem to visit the Roman Amphitheatre.
it’s almost as large as Colosseum!

And of course, we visited Sousse Medina a lot. It was really crowded!
very different from swedish culture. fun, but exhausting. and there
was so much to see. I also found the king of africa 8)
playing drums in the medina!

And of course we ate a lot of good food! I don’t have pictures
of all of it though. And we drank a lot of Tunisian “menthe”
(té med smak av mynta, serveras även med färsk mynta)
and smoked water pipe. There were a lot of cozy cafés in the Medina,
but we only visited one there, since we were living in Port El Kantaoui.
