Burn burn burn!

Today is Valborg. The holiday where we light a huge bonfire, stand around it, drinking and sing a couple of songs..
The whole ceremony's purpose is to scare off the wolves..so we can let out the sheep. Probably an old myth, 'cause there are just a few wolves left in Sweden.

Nowadays it's just a reason for people to get drunk and have a day off from work!

A moose sausage and a dog show

I know I haven't posted anything for ages. Felt like I hadn't done anything except for working. But actually I have!

During easter I went to a dog show here in Stockholm. I love going on dog shows, walk around and dream about what kind of dog I want... I still can't decide. It's between a Sheltie, Italian Greyhound, Whippet, Dachshound or a Dansk/Svensk gårdshund (like a Swedish version of a Jack Russel).

I've also been to three family gatherings celebrating easter, my cousin's birthday and my grandmothers birthday.

I've also been out quite much with my friends. Stockholm's nightlife is fun, but I tend to always go the same places every weekend. Except when I went out with my work colleagues last weekend. We went to a place in Old Town, to a pub inspired by the Middle Ages. Two heavy wooden doors led down to a cellar where there were candles lit everywhere and wooden benches to sit on. The waitress was dressed in old fashioned clothes and it really felt like we were thrown back in time (with our mobiles on the tables). We were served mead in earthenwarejars and ate sausages from moose and pickled herring. It was awesome!

Whoever comes to visit, I'll take you there!

If I could I would:

- Get my suit case out of the closet
- Pack some clothes
- Pack my family
- Pack my friends
- Get my passport
- Get a ticket to the land Down Under

Fly there.
Stay there.

Happy Easter! Glad Påsk!

To all my friends all over the world,

I wish you a happy easter and tons of good food and lollies from the easter bunny!

I'm a Cocker Spaniel

I've been really lazy updating my blog...sorry about that. Well, part of it is because I got a job. At an animal insurance company (where I worked before, but now I'm back working full time). I'm working in sales and It's going really well. People in Sweden really love their pets and of course they want to have a health insurance incase the pup breakes a leg!

Thank god for the pampering-of-pets-era!

Today when the phone stopped ringing for a minute, I did a test online: "What dog would you be?" I answered the questions and I turned out to be a Cocker Spaniel. I reckoned it was a bit boring an changed my answers a bit, just slightly, and turned out to be: A Cocker Spaniel again! So I guess that's what I am...

An animal-insurance-selling-Cocker-Spaniel! Whoho!

What kind of dog would you be? (in Swedish)
