Good evening my oldies!!

Today was another holy moly cold day, -8C but it feels like -14C, hahahaha and my fingers were gonna fall off (I wore gloves with sheep fur inside) and my toes suffer as well, they were freezing to death even with two woollen socks.

Still the winter lights can be so attractive to take photos and to enjoy the magical sky.

I went with my partner to look for Canon Cameras as I’m thinking seriously to buy one, then we couldn’t resist buying some flowers and tulips for our house.

Now at home eating hot food and enjoying the company of my cats while watching a movie and drinking some Green Tea with Spearmint  – Kusmi Thé Nanah à la menthe – which we got from the “Tehuset JAVA”.

Puss Puss and good night! ❤

Some of you have already seen my apartment, but some things are different and finally we got some new shelves!

Christmas decorations should all be about candles and magic. There is no better way to welcome the holidays than focusing on what truly matters and turning your home into a magical place of joy!!

Hanging decorations to your windows can be a sweet initiative to feel the festive season.

Rembermer also that natural elements are also easily accessible, affordable, and make for great holiday centerpieces. Check out those lovely green and red cherry branches

These natural bundle brings an element of a fresh forest to your home décor. The branches with Green Berries add organic interest to its surroundings, while the red ones match the Christmas spirit.

For an enchanting display, place these branches in a nice vase 🙂

Merry Christmas / God Jul to y’all!

Mys to survive a swedish winter

Published on by Jasmine Elnadeem4 Comments

Jasmine ElnadeemWhen you move from a hot country to a cold one like Sweden, you need to be extra positive in your thoughts.

Don’t expose yourself to the rain and wind until you freeze like hell. Think about all the wonderful things you are going to do when you get back indoors. Like: light candles, take a warm bath, drink hot chocolate, read a good novel, drink glögg by the open fireplace, bake or cook something delicious, get under the down-covers with your little cats, etc.

Swedish people survive their winter doing lots of Mysa.

Mysa is the Swedish word for enjoy oneself. We almost have this in English with the word snuggle, but if you’re gonna be mysering in Swedish, you can do it with someone, alone, or even in a café.

Ex: Ikväll ska jag mysa framför tv! (Tonight, I will cosy up in front of the tv!)

Oh, my swedish still sucks but I know the cozy words, hahahaha

Yes, the Swedes do get really tired of the darkness, rain and snow and they usually take at least one annual trip to sunny locations a year. However, they still hold a place in their hearts for these warm, cozy nights in front of the fireplace or candles when the storms are howling outside.

This weekend I won’t be doing any mysa, I will be more partying and dancing my ass off with my babe Jamie to celebrate her birthday, but you try to enjoy your mysa.
