Denmark and Sweden

January 22, 2011

November last year, Frank and I left Korea and went back to Europe for a long holiday before moving on to our next destination -sunny Sydney! As excited as we were to finally move on, it was also hard to say goodbye to our friends and leave some our favourite spots in Seoul.

Back in Europe, in between catching up with family and friends, we managed to squeeze in some time off alone, and went to Ebeltoft ,Denmark. We stayed in a beach house and it was a lovely place. It’s the kind of place where you could see yourself spending the whole day by the beach and cooking warm meals when night falls.

When I think of Denmark and Sweden, I think Arla cheese, Ikea and Pippi Longstocking. I’m not sure why Arla cheese, maybe it’s because they are one of the biggest cheese exporters worldwide. And Ikea, who doesn’t love Ikea, right?

We took the ferry across to Gothenburg but unfortunately it was raining the entire 3 days we were there. The city was sweet and easy to explore, the girls were all stylish and the cafe’s not only offered us shelter from the cold, they also fed us very well. Things like grilled chicken with bottomless salad (yes, you can eat as much greens until you turn, well… green). It never tasted so good! It seems that they all eat very well in Denmark and Sweden; fresh salmon, loads of greens and yogurt, yogurt, yogurt!

Here are some of the pictures that we took (mostly of food) in Denmark and Sweden.
