A RELAXED WKND

It is Sunday, and it is another beautiful sunny weekend for this spring before it would turn grey and wet again.

In Sweden you might end up spent pretty much the entire winter indoors, so it was about time to just be outside into the wide green fields, the sun and to see some pretty horses.

I took the bus with my boyfriend and we headed to Gärdet, northeast of Östermalm – Stockholm. Its official name is Ladugårdsgärdet. WOW I haven’t been there before and I just felt that I belong to that place especially when it is sunny.

Nature is a beautiful thing and it can be wonderful when you are able to surround yourself with it.

Today isn’t officially the International Day of Happiness, but it was a very happy day indeed. I played with the horses, ran around, soaked up some sun and ate ice-cream.

I wonder why one can not really declare every day to be a day of happiness and share happiness in general.

Sure, you can not just pass over happiness as we do with goods, but maybe there are little things you can do to make others happy. At least on a small scale.

In the end, we came home early to give my baby cats the quality time they deserve and to play with them. Meaw!

Hope y’all had a relaxed weekend too either indoors or outdoors.

Hugs!!

Happy with COLOURS

I don’t really remember when was the last time I filled in a colouring book because things has changed so quickly.

But colouring isn’t no longer just for kids and I found out that colouring books are topping again bestsellers lists as they help people to relax.

Colouring books allow me to control my emotions which have been affected by stress. They take me to those lovely memories of my childhood, a period with less stress for sure.

Colouring  or painting is incredibly good for your brain as you just sit and focus on what colour to take next.

So if you need some stress relief m, grab one of those books and start colouring one of its gorgeous print.

Hugs ❤

Sunset view over Slussen

Many of the narrow, cobblestone alleys in Gamla Stan are car free, making a walk around the Old Town a pleasure.

BUT today I went for a better view to see Slussen and Gamala Stan from Katarinahissen “The Katarina Elevator”, which connects Slussen to the heights of Södermalm and offers the best panoramic overview of the city.

I was lucky that today was one of those sunny days in Stockholm.

Later on I went for a great day down town, I did some shopping and got the Silk Curling Wand from Remington, then ate “Fish & Chips” at The Liffey, the best Irish bar in town.

It feels great to have a calm and relaxing weekend, to rest and get ready for a new week with tons of work.

Hope you had an amazing weekend.

XOXO to Y’all!
