If you've been following our blog for the last week, you'll know that last weekend was dramatic to say the least here in the marina. Peter was in Greece and I (Helena) was alone in the houseboat when a section of our jetty simply sank, taking with it an office and several leisure boats.

It was a bit sad to leave the heat of Rome and come back to the cold, but still cosy to come home to the houseboat. We've been living the life this week with work and training, and we've also managed to get new dressers and a new espresso machine for the houseboat. Today it's time for a trip abroad again ... but now only Peter is going.
Read moreOn Sunday we came home late in the evening (read: night). On Monday morning it was time for me to go to work and for Peter to start with blog work, invoices, meetings and fixing the houseboat. This week has really gone sooo fast. We still have a lot to be happy about! Today there will be another film from Wismar and a report both from our houseboat and from the new commuter train station in Stockholm.
Read moreFinally Friday and time for "Happy Friday"! The most positive aspect of our week has been getting through the first week of training. These new good intentions may be jeopardised by next week's trip to Switzerland, but we will do our best to stick to our new habits...!
Read moreThis week has been tough! Peter has been working on building a log house on Ringsö and I have been "holding the fort" at the county council and at home in the houseboat. But the hardest part has been not seeing each other. It may sound a little silly, but we are not used to being apart ... Now Peter is home again, and that means it is definitely Happy Friday for us! Among other things, there was a seafood party yesterday in the houseboat...!
Read moreThis week has been a bit different because Peter and I have been apart, and we're not used to that. I'm at home working and Peter is building a log house on an island in Lake Mälaren. So what's "Happy" about that?
Read moreIt was Friday again and time for "Happy Friday". This really IS a Happy Friday for us, because tonight it's time for one of the biggest events of the year for travel bloggers: Nordic Travel Blog Summer party. We will of course tell you more as soon as we can! For now, we can tell you about last weekend's oyster feast and this week's newspaper report.
Read moreHow can it be so busy all the time? I (Helena) am writing our Happy Friday post today because Peter is busy with everything from arranging the trip to Wismar to preparing our campervan for the trip in Poland and the Czech Republic.
Read moreOk, here we go! The week has been crazy and the sea is storming. The next workshop Iveco has fixed two errors out of four on the motorhome, and they do not intend to help me further with the rear view camera, and that the battery does not charge with cable, yes, life plays, haha.
Read moreIt's that time again and the weeks go by so incredibly fast. We have heat and I am very happy about it. The week has been up and down. I have picked up the motorhome in Kristinehamn with lots of errors and I am deeply angry, but we will take it on Tuesday with film and photos.
