Welcome!

WELCOME!

it’s all about balance

Hi there, welcome and thanks for stopping by :)

A little under a year ago, 345 days to be exact. My family and I packed up our lives in Sydney, Australia and moved to Stockholm, Sweden. This is by far the biggest adventure I've ever been on, and I love it!

Overall the process has been so much smoother than I expected. I can’t believe nearly a year has gone by. Sometimes I feel like it's been much longer and I'm becoming a local. Then at other times I feel like I've just landed and I have no idea what is going on. I didn't expect to have so many things to adjust to and so much to relearn. Even a simple task like doing the food shopping is a completely difference experience here. I'll share my earlier attempts at doing this in future posts! There is so much to see and do here, that I still feel like a tourist. I love been able to explore this city at a slow pace and really take it all in, instead of having to quickly see everything in a limited amount of time. 

Soon I'll be sharing the travel adventures that we've already had and keep you updated on all our new ones. I’ll also share my thoughts and reflections on moving from one side of the world to the other and how we are adjusting to the Swedish lifestyle (and weather!). Along with other random bits and pieces. So again, welcome! And stay tuned for plenty of photos (mostly taken on my phone) and stories about our adventures and our transition into the local food and culture here.

I hope that you enjoy this journey with me :)

Cheers, Jess
