SCANDINAVIA HERE WE COME

Upcoming week I'll have to exchange my shorts, panama hats and bikinis to warmer autumn clothes for a week of social networking in Sweden. Can't wait! Was too long time since the last visit. ♡

BACK IN BCN

But just for a few days. France, Ibiza (otra vez) and Sweden are next up on the schedule.

COLORS

Just some few more pics of me and my friends from last weekend. Pics found on Facebook.

BEACH LIFE

At Mellow Beach Club, hotel W.

SUMMER PLANS

I am blessed to be able to work from wherever I find an Internet connection. At the moment we're cruising around on the Spanish coastline and islands. Soon we'll set our sails towards eastern parts of Europe for an all summer Mediterranean cruise before heading far West and the Atlantic crossing in end of October. More pics here from our last cruise.

SOUL FOOD

One of the most wonderful days of my life have just passed by. What would life be without good old friends.

EXCHANGE OF CREW

After white parties, sailing tours and endless nights the boat stays calm and empty again. But just for a few more hours. New crew onboard tonight!

BUSY WEEKEND AHEAD

Two of my favorite girls in town!

ONE MORE IN

Dear Nadia aka Ms Chanel has finally arrived. She got her name for the simple reason that she's the fashion brand manager for Chanel in Dubai - Pret a porter and Haute Couture. What a wonderful delight to finally see my beautiful desert rose on this side of the world. She's one of the best things I got out of my one year stay in Dubai.

For you guys who recently got to know me; I was writing a Swedish blog during my time in Dubai and other parts of the world. I guess I have been blogging about my life and adventures for nearly five years now and only the last one in English.

FRI NIGHT

At Ricardo Villalobo's party with Alex, his brother and friends.

1 YR OF MEMORIES IN B/W.

It was pretty much one year ago that I moved to Barcelona from Dubai, where I also spent a year of my life or so. The transfer back to Europe must have been the best choice I've ever made in my entire life. I exchanged the soulless, artificial lifestyle back to European culture and soul. What a drastic difference - to the better - it made for my life, heart and soul.

Started the summer of 2009 in Barcelona with a trip to Ibiza. Good friends. Good vibes.

Followed by Sonar parties and friends in town.

Was in London for shopping. Expensive shopping was a major part of my everyday happiness those days. Diamonds and pearls. Golden watches, first class flights to luxurious resorts and 2000$ shoes. I guess it wasn't very easy (nor cheap) to satisfy me in this period of my life (at least not if you were a man).

Here's my beautiful, adorable Fanny on a visit in Barcelona.

I went to Bali for some weeks..

...fell in love with the nature..

...met some elephants.

I went to my beloved Berlin a couple of times.

And spent some beautiful nights on an astonishing roof terrace in Paris.

I also went home to Sweden to see my old friends.

And the yearly secret island party outside of Gothenburg.

My dear friend Alex visited me in Barcelona a couple of times.

So did my wonderful Stina.

I was posing in my home. Oh my God how I loved that flat.

My dad was here, we went to the Rammstein concert on his birthday.

I was searching for a new flat.

When I suddenly met the man of my dreams. (I mean seriously. Is he really for real, I ask myself at times. How can a man be so fucking beautiful, genuine, normal, intelligent, caring, honest, straight forward, ambitious, down to earth, spiritual, strong, insane, inspiring and blessed with such sex appeal - all at the same time? Jackpot.)

We went to Milan to celebrate life and that we finally found each other.

Came back and had a crazy, wonderful new year eve's celebration with friends.

Don't ask me where I got that trucker hat from? That night was 100% insane. One of the best.

First spring lunch in the sun.

Lots of dinners, birthday parties, events.

Dear Amanda visited us for my birthday.

Moving house, changing life. But not to a new apartment..

..but a boat!!

Would say that's probably one of the best things I ever done. Back to the basics. Steady on the ground. Away from the materialistic world I both loved and hated. Obviously, I do miss my huge walk in closet at times and all the convenience you might have when living spaciously, but the boat life gives me so much more harmony and peace that it wins in the long run. Well thank God for that as we've planned to stay on it for at least two long years. I now look forward to fill the upcoming year with even more traveling and crazy experiences and you're all very welcome to follow the journey!
