Dinner at Cape Sienna

These are photos from last August, when I wisited Thailand for the fifth time, and Hotel Cape Sienna in Kamala Beach in the island of Phuket. For the second time.

On the first photo you see all the different startes, entrés and snacks that where includes in the buffé.

 Here you can see the chef grilling the stuff you want "a la minute", just by the poolside. Meat, poultry or seafood. Your choice.

And here is the desserts. Much more than in the pic, just a few - like choccolate mousse, créme brulee and pannacotta with fresh strawberries. 

My new sandals

Look at these beautiful sandals I just got, white, gold and silver. Love them.

Perfect when I travel next time, hopefully to somewhere warm and sunny. Like Thailand...

This is just a reminder of what my last vacay in Phuket was, like eating at this restaurant Rock Fish in Kamala beach.

Shopping in Tunisia

I know, this is just some of the things that you can buy while in Tunisia. But one thing you really find everywhere is carpets, the carpet vendors will not give up before they sold you a rug.

And then you can find tiles and other things in handpainted ceramics of all kind, like this "turisty" things.

Even if they are made just for turists, the mosaic work is sometimes really good.

And here is another carpet, up close.

Memories of Italy in the bathroom

This is a wall in my bathroom, all white tiles exept this one space - or two actually but I did only take one photo - where I have some nice memories of Italy.

This is some pieces of ceramic tiles that I have found on my walks on the beaches of southern Italy in beautiful The Amalfi coast.
I collected them during a holiday in Positano some years ago, and thought that could come handy one day.
And here they are now, in my bathroom so I can remember Italy every day.

Back home again

Just arrived home from a holiday in Cyprus, first time in the country. Nice place, sunny - most of the time - and lovely beaches and clear blue water in the see.
Not so clean water in the pool but a very nice hotel anyhow. Stayed in Sandy Beach Hotel just outside Larnaca. Complete with a cat that also like the comfy sunbeds.

Larnaca was a small but nice city just at the beach. A lot of exclusive shops, expensive but we are in Europe with the euro... Some interesting churches, moscs and a very old fort.

And now it's february...

Every day that's passing we get closer and closer to the spring, I so hate winters. And Yes, I know I have been talking about this before. But I am really tired of snow, cold weather and ice.
Not to talk about how dark it is, dark when you get up and when you come home from work. But the thing that I really love abot Sweden is that you then have these lovely summer nights, when its daylight alomst 24-7.
The I can make some nice pizzas in my own forno a'legna, an outside owen in my garden imported from Italy.
The pic abowe is from Sri Lanka, where it is WARM and sunny and lovely, and...
That is thing's I love.
Speak to you later.

Home again

It looks like I only write here when I have been away on holiday. And here we go again, my latest trip was to Sri Lanka, a beautiful island in Asia.
And I stayed at a lovely hotel, The Blue Water in Wadduwa. Here is a pic from the beach.

Relaxed on holiday

Is it not a bit strange how quickly you go back to old habits when you come home from a vacation. You feel so relaxed and energetic in the same time.
And then - just a few days later - you are back to not only old habits of over-working but even working more than before, just because you now has more energy.

Hallo again!
Just been travelling a bit and working a lot! Thats why I havde been so lazy with updates, but now I am back. Last trip was in Tunisia, in Hammamet. A tourist town with an ancient past. Sun, sandy beaches an a lot of lazyness.
Here is a pic from the beach outsie my hotel, lovely place...
More later!

First day with my new blog

Snow outside. Cold outside but warm inside. But I must say I prefer the summer. Wherever in the world. Just feel the heat...

I have so much to write but I am going to save that for a little bit later. So hang on there, just hang on.
