For the past few days, we have been helping Peter's mum move from a large house (which housed a whole life) to a small flat. It's been a busy few days with lots of physical labour and many opportunities to test our problem-solving skills. We offer some reflections from the chaos of the move.

What do I actually work with? By popular demand (or well, one person has asked), I (Helena) thought I would tell you a little more about my job. This is a travel blog, but we thought you might also want to know a little more about us as people. So today it will be a little more about my other job. I tell you by asking myself some questions!

Fortunately, the weather was really nice all the time while he was climbing on the roof, which of course made it all a bit more pleasant. Here is a picture gallery from the assembly.

Happy Friday! Admittedly, it is a bit sad to come home from travelling, but it is still nice to come to a home where you feel comfortable. Personal news this week is that I (Helena) started a new job and ... a new houseboat slipped into the marina. In addition, we can enjoy watching Peter's last two films from the Israel trip! Happy Friday then!

I (Helena) will start a new job after the end of the year. Although this is mainly a travel blog, I thought I would tell you a little about what I do when I'm not travelling. Today I tell you about what I studied and where I worked. I offer a little insight into my everyday world, which has involved everything from research at Karolinska Institutet to issues of eating habits, physical activity, disability, accessibility and health equality.
