But first what to pack? OH YAA BABY I’m going for my second vacation, to Jordan this time.

Hahahaha it feels like it’s been forever (not literally) since I had a holiday. Doesn’t it always feel like that for you even if you just came back from one?!

Lately I was leading a super busy month full of work, gym and school. I back to school to learn swedish.

In the beginning I thought of throwing on my comfiest outfit, log into Netflix and grab a jumbo bag of popcorn and just see a movie, but summer is not over yet (Happy Face Emoji), so I decided to fly again where is the real sun and warmth.

I’m going to stay with my best friend chilling, pooling and meeting other friends.

But for this weekend I’m going to Södra Teatern, let my hair down – pop some champagne and dance the whole night.

LOVE, J

You have cycled in the dark and have cycled outside. But have you ever done it on a rooftop with the entire city surrounding you?

OMG today I did it and it was an amazing workout with a great energy and a big smile on my face.

The URBAN DELI is hosting an URBAN RIDE POP UP on the ROOFTOP where you can sweat, cycle, breath some fresh air and enjoy the great view of Stockholm city.

The Urban Ride team packed up the bikes and took them up to the roof. Hats off to a great effort indeed. We found our towels, shoes and weights ready for us.

Join us tomorrow morning, and believe me the beautiful setting will help you through, as the great music, the tough-but-fair instructor and the bunch of incredibly stylish sporty women will be cycling around you.

Have a lovely day. PUSS PUSS, J

MY FIRST MIDSUMMER FUN NIGHT

My first Midsummer in Sweden was just Purrrrrfect with my friends 🙂

Though the day was raining in the morning but it ended up as a sunny one in the afternoon.

Swedes celebrate the longest day of the year with family members and friends in the countryside. They keep singing, drinking alcohol and eating traditional swedish food prepared by almost everyone.

Pickled herring is a particular favourite during this season. Also strawberries and the lingonberries are quite popular in the summer and they are usually consumed in the form of cake or cream.

In agrarian times, Midsummer celebrations in Sweden were held to welcome the summertime and the season of fertility.

Flower wreaths are a common motif in Midsummer gatherings. You can find revelers of all genders wearing these garlands. Mine was not real but it was a pretty one which I will keep on my mirror as a positive sign.

Here you can see my mini towering maypole – it is usually a huge one, so people can dance around it – which is an iconic symbol of Midsummer celebrations.

Puss Puss, J
