Sweden I've never spent much time in Sweden. Blame my Norwegian roots. The Swedes and Norwegians traditionally haven't gotten along, and as I'm 33% Norwegian and only 4% Swedish, the Norwegian side won out. I've backpacked around Norway. I studied two summers at the University of Oslo. I've spent holidays
In the region Småland in Sweden you can stay on your very own little island. You get there by canoe and stay in a small cabin in the middle of the lake in the beautiful swedish nature.
It was a really nice visit as always, but unfortunately the sky was white most of the time and we had the kind of haze that washes away all colors, so I didn't take many photos outdoors this time. (This is from the first evening when we had a bit of sunshine.) Stockholm, Sweden. (#379 on Explore Sep. 29, 2010 .)
This wonderful vintage pot or mug is a rare find from Gustavsberg, one of Sweden's most iconic pottery manufacturers. Created in the 1960s, this piece is part of the "Heja Sverige" series, which translates to "Go Sweden!"—a patriotic nod to Swedish culture and heritage. Designed by Margareta Hennix, a prominent figure in Swedish ceramic art, this pot/mug features the "FlaggJunkare" pattern, characterized by bold colors and striking graphics that capture the spirit of the era. Crafted from flintware (Flintgods), a durable type of earthenware known for its smooth, glossy finish, this piece showcases the exceptional quality and craftsmanship for which Gustavsberg is renowned. The large size of this pot/mug makes it versatile—ideal for serving beverages, soups, or as a decorative piece that adds a touch of mid-century Scandinavian charm to any home decor. It is in excellent vintage condition, no chips or cracks never used like new. Whether you are a collector of Scandinavian ceramics, a fan of mid-century design, or simply looking for a unique piece to celebrate Swedish culture, this "Heja Sverige" pot/mug is a fantastic addition to any collection.

- large - For winter lovers, this has been a great season, with lots of snow and ice, and temperatures well below freezing for many weeks. A winter unlike most the recent years, but quite normal a few decades ago. I won't go into a monologue about the climate changes here, but just say that I am happy we still get this kind of winters, and hope we will do in the future too. Incidentally, we had -28C (-25F) this morning. Here is a scene from the "old town" district of Linköping, back when the first snows came. We're basically out of places to put the snow now, and just plow it around... Enjoy your saturday :)
