2018 recap (part 1)
Hello dear old blog! You’ve been neglected yet again. As such, I think a recap of the year is definitely in order, with LOTS of pictures. Sound good? Despite the lack of blogging, 2018 was a great year, overall. It started out a little rocky and uncertain, but so many good things happened to us. […]

why sweden?
If I were to label my relationship with Sweden on Facebook it would most definitely be, ‘It’s Complicated‘! As we now know, my background story is all over the place. I actually pity my closest friends, because they have undoubtedly heard me explain my story hundreds of times to any poor, innocent fool who’s asked […]

I personally find broad goals a lot easier to work towards in contrast to strict resolutions – that’s always been a big struggle for me – so without further ado, here […]

Instead, I’m aiming for goals. I also figure that since I usually start my resolutions at full force on Jan […]

2014 diy gift guide
Hello! Happy Monday 🙂 How are you guys? I’m feeling happy and snuggly (that’s a thing, right?) after an amazing birthday yesterday, which I may try to recap later this week. For now, however, I want to roll out my 2014 DIY Gift Guide! I love making and receiving home-made gifts, and always struggle with […]

updates
Hello there! I know I haven’t been as good at updating lately, but I miss the blog! Truthfully, things have been very busy (what else is new), and I haven’t been as motivated to post. That’s just how my productivity works. It ebbs and flows, and I’d rather not post if I don’t have something […]
