Here are three great restaurants in Riga! It is with fascination that I realise how quickly this city has developed. I first visited Riga more than 20 years ago. It was not long after Latvia gained independence from the Soviet Union, and when you ordered food in the restaurants, you were often met with "sorry, we're out".

Right now it is time for the olive harvest in Croatia. We see it everywhere here on Brac, and not least at the campsite where we live. The campsite is full of olive trees and right now the owners are harvesting all day, together with the rest of the family who came here from Bosnia. At the tourist office, we also learned that the private olive oil museum may not be open right now. because the owners are in the middle of the harvest.. Everything seems to be about olives right now!

Is there caviar in a tube (like "Kalles caviar") abroad? Since we usually want to try local food when we are travelling, we tend to think that this kind of question is uninteresting. But if you're living abroad or staying abroad for a long time, you might want to try flavours from home sometimes. We have been travelling around much of Europe for 10 months now, so what about... is there caviar abroad?

The food and culture in North Macedonia is very exciting and so different from what we have in the rest of Europe. There was no end to the hospitality during our visit to North Macedonia. Kicevo, and as several readers guessed, we stayed for a while... After I had tried the Albanian festive clothing we learned that in the evening we were invited to a fish restaurant!

Shopping in supermarkets in Southern Europe (and everywhere else!) is exciting and interesting. It is fun to browse through all the raw materials and products that you are not used to from Sweden. It's also interesting to observe the range of products in the shops as it tells you a lot about the food culture in the different countries. We have now travelled in France, Portugal, Spain and Italy for eight months. Here you can see our reflections from the supermarkets. Maybe you have other experiences?
