Things aren’t going so well here in Sweden. Covid-19 cases are on the rise and my county/region has been the first in Sweden to reinstate harder restrictions and recommendations. So for all of us living here, we’ve been advised to avoid public transportation, hang…
As I said in my previous two posts on our vacation to Österlen last week, my intention was to reset my soul. To find + discover + soak up anything + everything that could inspire me. Turns out, Österlen + southeastern Sweden are packed…
Summer is supposed to be all about rest I think. And I am lucky enough to live in a country (Sweden) that values the importance of creating space for rest by making the work-life balance a priority. I have all of July off. So…
That happened. Two weeks went by without me documenting my own little life’s experiences in the midst of this global pandemic. Part of my silence was due to not feeling it last weekend. I mean, not feeling inspiration to write + post after a…

Two weeks ago, I was in the small city of Östersund, Sweden with my lovely wife. It was my 44th birthday weekend and she had planned a whole 3-day trip to this little northern, nature-loving town for us. It turned out to be a…
Happy Midsummer, my fellow northern hemisphere-ians! We’re at the apex of the season of light. Ready to bask in season of carefree days of love + laughter. And starting it all off by celebrating Litha, a.k.a. the summer solstice. In other words… it’s time…
Two weeks ago I said goodbye to my first class of babies at their graduation. Ok. Let me back up a bit… In January 2016, I started a new job. It was the perfect combination of two things I love: working with young people…
