9.5 hours from Helsinki to Vaxholm

Tuesday April 26th, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

It takes 9.5 hours to drive your own boat from Helsinki to Vaxholm’s marina. There could two happy Finns tell when they checked in with us earlier in the week. The boat, a Yamarin 68 DC, was sold and would now be transported to it’s new owners somewhere in the area of Mariefred. What a cool thing to do, I…

I want green fingers

Friday April 22nd, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

  The lawn getting greener, broom flowers, tulip leaves are sticking up in the flower beds, cherry tree bud and small delicate leaves begin to appear on the lilac and shrubs. Next weekend is the Walpurgis Night. Is not it lovely? It is spring – for real! Every year I have a vision of a sumptuous…

Online shop in the making

Sunday April 17th, 2016 by Linda 2 Comments

  Sunday night at our place. Jesper builds a portable photo studio for product photography, Zack sits in his room editing a movie clip, Vigo’s shooting a video for his new youtube channel. Full activity as usual. And I love it!   We have decided to open an online shop with our favorite gadgets from the B…

Golden epaulettes

Thursday April 14th, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

A couple of years ago, Jesper (my husband) and I decided to get a ship’s degree in order to be able to offer our B & B guests safe tours on the lake in our boat. Since then there have been several trips, both with guests and journalists, which we have shown our favorite spots in the archipelago…

Time to chill

Saturday April 9th, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

Saturday’s are often equal to time off and lazy days, but not here at the Bed & Breakfast. Guests check out, and others check in. Like any day of the week. Apartments must be cleaned and breakfast baskets be prepared. But what does it matter when I have the best job in the world, and…

We are decorating the new Guest House

Wednesday April 6th, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

It is raining today. But it does not matter. I have indoor work to do. The young family, who lives in the One Bedroom Apartment has also aimed to visit both Junibacken and the Vasa Museum, so I guess they will take the opportunity to do some of that today. Yesterday, when the sun shone, they took…

They sing opera at the Villa Akleja

Saturday April 2nd, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

Just next door to ours is Villa Akleja. An absolutely wonderful house that was built in 1901 by J.A.G. Acke – at that time one of Sweden’s 10 leading artists, and good friend and colleague with Bruno Liljefors, Anders Zorn and Prince Eugen. Around the turn of the century, the house was the center of the Swedish…

Time to paint the outdoor furniture

Monday March 28th, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

Already during the morning walk, I knew that this was going to be a magical day. Although it was only half past eight, there was already heat in the air. Even Zelda (our dog) seemed to have spring fever. When we came down to the small sandy beach at Johannesberg she just went straight out of…

196 sharpened pencils

Monday March 21st, 2016 by Linda Leave a Comment

There is something with sharpened pencils and color sorting that really gets me going. A little screwed maybe, but I love it when it’s in order. Jesper (my husband) says that it is probably on the brink of insanity. But it must be for him. I still think it’s nice when things are where they should be when I…
