4 tips for great cocktails in Visby
If you haven’t been to the medieval city of Visby, on the island of Gotland in Sweden, you should really start planning that trip. The city has so much to offer and today I thought I would share some of my favorite places for drinks and cocktails, hope you enjoy the read! Värdshuset Lindgårdens Ginbar It’s a restaurant and a hotel, with a gin bar… could it be any better? And it’s not like you have a few Gin and Tonics to choose from, they hand you a five pages long menu with more different kinds of cocktails, all made with Gin. I’ve said it once, but…

Highlights from the summer of 2020
We did a short review last year, from the Summer of 2019 so I thought we would do the same with 2020, even though this year has not nearly brought as many exotic travel destinations as last year. Fun fact, this is the first summer, in TEN years that I have not been abroad. We have always had our summervacations abroad, so this is the first year in forever and then some that we are doing the entire summer in Sweden. Most days were naturally spent at home, chilling in the backyard with some barbeque, playing games, and having some amazing laughs. Having a cocktail in the backyard. {4-html} Brittish…

Fårö and the rauks
During our swecation to Gotland, we brought a car so that we could take a daytrip to another island just north of Gotland, called Fårö. And to be completely honest, the only reason that we went to Fårö, is for the simple reason that I kept bothering my travel companions to see the rauks. Have you ever heard of such a thing like a rauk? You can go by car, bus, taxi, or bike to the ferry station that will get you across from Gotland to Fårö in just a few minutes. And it will cost you nothing at all to go the ferry. From there its a bit of…

Days on the beach
I never knew that I could find so many hidden treasures in my own backyard. Exploring our local surroundings this summer has been so much fun, and our weekend on the island of Nåttarö was one of the best once I have had in a long time. I mean, magical beaches, sun, and great company – what more can a girl ask for? From Stockholm in Sweden, it will take you about 45 minutes to get to Nynäshamn by train, and from there you take the ferry over to the island of Nåttarö which will take you yet another 35 minutes and set you back about 20 euro per person…

British pub night
Who does not like a good pub crawl? Maybe not a crawl, but I do enjoy walking around from pub to pub and having a cider, a beer, and some good local pub food. So for this week’s episode of our series of Food Travel we did just that, we created a British pub night.One of my all-time favorites when it comes to pub food is Shepards Pie, I think you have all heard of it and maybe even seen it, but have you tried it? It’s really quite easy to make. You just mix minced meat, Worchester sauce, soya, salt and pepper, and an egg together to make your…

Tapas @ Exit
During one of our daytrips to Stockholm in Sweden, we were searching for a good tapas bar, and we found Exit lounge and bar located in the southern parts of the city. It’s super easy to get there from the center of the city, I am guessing it will take you about 7 minutes to walk there from the subway station Stockholm Södra. The address is Götgatan 53, just type it into GoogleMaps, and you’ll see how easy it is to get there. They don’t only serve tapas at Exit lounge and bar, but that’s what we were in the mood for so that’s what we got. And c’mon, after…

Vacationmode on Fårö
Winelunch by the beach on the island Fårö. Yeah, I am still on vacationmode so that’s why it might be a bit quiet in here whilst I am hanging around places like in the image above. But you all know I am bad at updates when I am actually on my vacations, I don’t need to apologize for that do I? We kind of stumbled upon this place as we were looking for a place to have lunch before we started exploring the little island Fårö just outside Gotland here in Sweden, pretty cute huh? If you’re up for some more images, check out our Instagram where we’ve uploaded some…

Summery cocktails
Well, it ain’t summer of you’re not making some cocktails right? Okay, the cocktails may not define the seasons, but there is a difference in what kind of drinks and cocktails I make throughout the year. I mean, not really in the mood for mulled wine in during the summers, and not really craving that ice-cold Bellini during the cold winter nighs, right? At least that’s the way I feel. During the summers I tend to make fresh, light, and fruity cocktails and a lot of different sangrias, so I thought I would share some of them with you and hopefully get you inspired. 1. Apple sour with a twist…

Ågården
As we were planning our trip to Trosa in Sweden, we came across this cute place called Ågården. It’s a historic building with a courtyard center, with a bar, outdoor dining area, spa-bath, and a fully furnished greenhouse where you can have your outdoor meals indoors. And the best part, its located right by the canal. All the rooms are entered directly from the courtyard, so as you wake up in the morning, you’ll have the most amazing view. The double room that I and the husband stayed in had a small bedroom with a queen-sized bed, a bathroom with shower, and a small loungearea with wicker chairs. And a…
