Today I’m sharing 5 items that I always make sure to have when travelling. Since moving abroad in 2018, I’ve travelled quite a bit, and through trial and error, have found a few things that I make sure never to leave home without. So whether you’re packing for a month abroad or a weekend away, […]

When people find out that we brought our cats to Sweden with us from California two years ago, I alway get so many questions: do they have passports? how did […]
What’s your favourite mode of travel? Before moving to Europe, I would have said car, but after two and a half years of cycling almost every day – bike is my preferred way to get around!
