H E J!



I WENT TO SWEDEN!

Gothenburg City to be exact and I got my very own Dala Horse! (figurine, key chain and tote bag...)

Such a beautiful city and country, very much like New Zealand in the amount of people vs land mass, much fresher and cleaner than London too!

I'd never been on a roller coaster until we went to Liseberg Amusement Park, and I will probably never go on one again. Panic attacks on all three. (yes three! I went on three!). My favourite ride was the one above. Simple, predictable, rotating fun.

We were only there for one night so didn't really get to go around any of the art and design museums but I will be going back there! Stayed with friends so got a less touristy type of look around the place which was so much more interesting.

I love that Sweden is pretty much the design capital of the world -everything is practical but in a modern very designerish way -yes new word can't think of actual words to explain this right now so this will have to do (please view disclaimer to the right of your screen...).

Came across a few illustrations which kept popping up over the city -no idea what they are for or who by, a form of graffiti?
