Feeling Grey .. Feeling Blue


Jasmine Elnadeem

It doesn’t take a lot to confirm that weather affects your mood, and in Sweden we witness more dark days than the bright ones.

Things has been a little gloomy when you wake up in the morning and see no light.

So it is time to take your vitamin D regularly and hope for the best.

But what else can you do in these days to have a bit of fun?!

Oh baby, I got some tips for you:

1- Take a hike and see all the colored leaves. I actually moved to new place so looking forward to explorer the area around us.

2- Fika and more Fika. Yes Swedes love to have a lot of coffee breaks (fika) but in these days cafes feels more warm and cozy than the rest of the year.

Lunch with Kajsa at LOCALS

3- Mysa time. It means cozy up. You can do that alone or with friends. Light some candles, put some flowers and enjoy a drink or two.

4- Time to go to the museum. Last year I spent a lot of rainy days at different museums. Still there is the ABBA museum which I wish to see this year.

5- Get fit in the gym. More Swedes turn to escape the dark mornings and days by heading to the gym. It is natural to invest some quality time in oneself. Running outside makes no sense so the gym is an ideal place anytime.

Today I’m heading to the gym after work, I will have an early dinner then cozying up in front of TV or maybe I will curl up with a book.

Have a great day y’all! Puss Puss

EARLY SNOWFALL

Today morning, It felt like winter already in Stockholm with early snowfall.

Been lazy and tired since I wake up and I had a headache can kill a small elephant, but guess it’s because of my early mornings and some stressful days.

After my office hours I went for some training and I’m already sore in my body but I booked a workout for tomorrow.

Lolllll they say the best way to get rid of the pain is to workout/move around even more. So I’m gonna join the “Ride + Abs + Ass” workout at Urban Ride. Could barely walk haha!

Time for me to make it comfy in bed and fall asleep while a tv serie is on, talk tomorrow ❤

Winter is coming .. Sweden

Moving to a new country is a huge move and moving from Egypt to Sweden certainly presents lots of challenges.

Sweden offers a great deal of cultural and lifestyle options to new comers.

In the beginning you will feel that you can do lots in this country till the Swedish winter hits you. A very dark, very cold, yet very cozy, winter.

There are tough days when you will feel homesick, and you just don’t want to go outside. But, the hard lesson to learn is you have to go outside when the weather is nice, because it will be bad again. Find a happy or a dear friend who can ask you for a Fika date.

And who knows, maybe one day you will feel that you belong in Sweden.
