a day in stockholm
As some of you know, we spent the last two weeks of December in Stockholm. My dad lives there, and it’s where our family always meets up on the holidays. On one (rare) sunny day, we decided to venture out into the cold and tour the city before the sun went down. Our plan was…

However, a shorter work week inevitably translates into squeezing more work into less time, so I’m pretty wiped out despite having Monday off.
