Italy - Rome

I had a dream...

Wednesday, 25 March, 2020, 2:05 PM


... of Italy, and more specifically Rome. I am really happy that I have these images, cuz this was the place I was dreaming about, so I am happy to be able to share this with you.

We found this place whilst just walking around in the city, as we aimlessly did for hours. Turn here, stop there, take a left, pause, go right... you know the drill. You keep walking until you find yourself totally lost in the beauty of the city, stopping only when you find that great spot that gives you exactly what you want. This was this kind of place for us, we took a turn, ended up in an alley covered with greens. And hey, there was a restaurant.

But the place was not really open, it was about to close for a few hours between lunch and dinnertime. But without hesitation, they offered us to sit down, have a glass and stay for as long as we wanted. So they closed down and left us in this beautiful outdoor area, that we had just for ourselves, and I remember thinking that this was just magical.

I wish I could tell you the name of the restaurant, or even the path to walk to find the place, but I can't... so if anyone of you recognizes the place, please let me know, I would love to go back there someday not just visit in a dream.

Maybe its the current state of the world, that we are not able to travel right now that sends me into dream like this. But yes, I would love to go back to Rome, its that kind of city that you are not done with. We only stayed in the city for a long weekend, and that's simply not enough time to see the entire city, it has so much more to offer. I am betting that there are plenty more back alleys to get lost in...

So tell me, have you been to Rome?

Greece - Athens

Plaka Stairs

Wednesday, 18 March, 2020, 7:33 AM


Besides the big buildings and tourist attractions in Athens, Plaka stairs were one of the things I had my eyes set on seeing during our visit to the capital of Greece. I just had an idea of a really friendly vibe, where people were sitting around and drinking wine, eating some snacks and smoking way too many cigarettes.

I do admit though that in my head, as I was planning to sit on the Plaka stairs, I was imagining more sunshine and for certain more people. But we were there before lunch on the day after the new year's celebrations, so there was no crowd at all. But no sun either, unfortunately.


There are all types of places to be seated, just you take your pick. You can sit straight on the stairs on a small cushion having only a small stool as a table. Cute and cozy right?

If you want some more comfort there are regular tables as well, you just take a seat where ever you want and the menu will be brought to you with a smile.



So was it all that I thought it would be?

Well, if you add some sun to go with that jug of sangria, it would have been rated higher but I can't really blame the poor restaurant owner for that, can I? I mean, he did bring us some appetizers with fish and eggs.

I can only imagine how nice and cozy Plaka stairs must be during the summer, I would most likely spend several hours there if I could.
And seeing as its a place that really attracts tourists, it was very affordable. We did not pay any over-priced even though its a place that could easily cost you quite much.

So yes, it was all that it's cracked up to be. If you ever visit Athens in Greece, I recommend that you have some wine at Plaka stairs.

Spain - Madrid

Tattoos and tequila

Friday, 13 March, 2020, 6:59 AM


We did not tell you about the time that we got tattooed in Madrid, did we? We had talked about getting a tattoo together before, but when we were in Madrid, Spain, we finally got to it. So it was not a spur of the moment desition per say, but it was kind of a split second desition that night. It was like should we do it? Really? okay, lets!

To be honest, none of our tattoos turned out that great... Angelicas is the worst, the tattoo had lost most of its color and looks like a spotted military plane. Lee, Angelica's fiance, his plane is crooked but it has most of its color. Jacob, Ann's husband's tattoo is a bit spotted as well. Maybe it's not such a good idea just to walk into a tattoo parlor without doing your research beforehand, but we all thought that this was a pretty simple tattoo to make, so what could possibly go wrong. Jacob did a google review of the tattoo parlor and was given the option to go back and re-do the tattoo, but since its a bit of a drive to get there from Sweden to Spain, that's not really an option... so if you are getting a tattoo whilst visiting Madrid, don't choose Montera Tattoos, there are plenty of other options. Our tattoos looked good at first, but after a while, they started losing color. And it was not like it was one of their artists that were bad, we used two of them and that kind of says it all, don't you think?

We don't usually write bad reviews but having a tattoo is making a life long commitment, so its kind of a big deal. For some it may even be the only time in your life that you get a tattoo, so you don't want anything to go wrong. It's not like having a bad meal at a restaurant. There are no do-overs.

So we paid 70 euro per person for the tattoos, so they should be okay, would you not say?


This was our first but everyone knows, as soon as you start getting inked, there's no stopping it. It fills your head with new ideas, on what to do next. And for us, it's in what city do we get tattoos next. Ann's husband did one in Athens as well, do you want to see it? I am guessing our next one will be in Paris... or maybe even in Edinburgh.

So let me ask you this, how many of you have done tattoos abroad? Including the once you did as your younger self whilst traveling. When, where and what please?
