My wife and I had got tired beach holidays, so last year we decided to try something different.

We stayed somewhere very unusual: on the Gustav Af Klint steamship, which on the water near Stockholm’s Old Town. Nowadays, it is a hostel with several cabins that can up to 24 guests. Our double cabin was certainly not luxurious, but it was a real . It’s difficult to find inexpensive accommodation in such a great , and with such a great view. It has easy to public transport, and there is a lot to see and do in the neighbourhood. our stay there, we took a guided of places featured in books by the famous Swedish writer, Stieg Larsson.

Have Some Colour to Your Home
Last month I sitting in my living room with my husband when I realised that our home needed a change. The walls were dark and the furniture looked worn and old. I turned to him and said, ‘We to have such a nice house when we got married, but look at it now! Do you know the last time we redecorated it was?’ That was when we finally decided to do something about it. Over the past few weeks, I have researching home design. The problem is that once you get started, there is no end to what you can do to improve your home. I wasn’t aware the fact that the colours we choose for our home can affect our mood. Now I know all about the colours that can make me feel happy and decided to paint the kitchen bright yellow. As for the living room, well, what can I say? As as we changed the furniture, it felt like we had moved into a new home. Even my mother noticed the difference when she dropped yesterday. Now I finally understand what people mean when they say ‘There’s no place home!’
