Read moreYesterday, I (Helena) visited Norrtälje, often referred to as the capital of Roslagen, on business. I work in the Stockholm County Council and since the county stretches from Södertälje in the south to Norrtälje in the north, there are sometimes longer journeys for meetings.

Read moreWhat's the easiest way to get rid of a sofa when you're home alone? Last Friday, when I was at a conference in Jönköping, Peter was busy. We had ordered a new sofa to be delivered at ten o'clock and before that the old sofa, which was broken, had to be taken out to make room for the new one. But how would that happen?
Read moreToday we'll be talking about Icelandic traditions here at FREEDOMtravel. A while ago we wrote about travelling Around Iceland by car, and now I thought I'd follow up by telling you about two important holidays in Iceland: Christmas and Þorrablót (utt: thorrablot).
