Gbg-Sthm

One week ago I started my new job and I love it! I am also really looking forward to this new start in my life with the move to Stockholm. In the beginning I still have one foot in Göteborg (Gbg) and one in Stockholm (Sthm) but if you look at the picture here below you will see that when it comes to transport, the transition is not so dramatic.

Right now I am sitting in the train and there is something that we don't have in France: radio on the train. Next to your seat there a little plugin thing where you can plug in your earplugs (lot of plug, uh?) and choose between theee radio channels. Most of the time I listen to my iPod but that's quite a nice feature I think.

My new babies

Here's what I'm going to work with at my new job. Nice, uh? Me like. A lot. :)

Big news

I have two big news in my life right now. 

One, I have finally tested Sèche-vite after reading about it on many beauty and make-up blogs. It's a top coat that you put on top of your nail polish to make it last longer. In case you don't know yet about it. They all rambled about how it was the best in the world and bla bla bla... I was a bit sceptic about it but at the same time wanted to try. And oh my god! how I wasn't disappointed. The difference between this one and all the other top coats in the world is stellar. To all my "nail polish lover"-readers, throw away any top coat you have, and go get the Sèche-vite, run! It will be the best that ever happened to you. 

It may be the best thing that happened to me in 2012 but I might have to revise my judgement tomorrow. 

Indeed tomorrow I am starting my new job. In Stockholm. With amazing people. In Stockholm. I am going to work with marketing, communication, strategy, internet, all the things that I love. In Stockholm. Have I already said Stockholm? That's probably because I can't wait! Oh and I am getting an iPhone and a MacBookAir. Tomorrow will probably top last Tuesday when I tried the Sèche-vite on for the first time.

Summerhouse with friends

Saw some pics on a blog about this house that is for sale. It is located in the South of France, in Roquebrune near Monaco. 

I love the turquoise shutters. And I like that it matches with the turquoise of the swimming pool, hehe. 

The house is for sale for $27 millons. If I can find 26 friends it will only be $1 million per person, that's a deal, no? ;)

 

So, who's with me?

Paté

Didn't come back from France empty-handed... ;)

Champagne

I love champagne. Simple as that. I was in France three weeks over Christmas and New Year's and it was a great luxury to be able to be with the family for so long. And during these weeks I had many opportunities to drink champagne. Here's what I drank, in alphabetical order:

• Ayala
• Ayala Rosé
• Dom Pérignon
• Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial (twice)
• Moët & Chandon Brut Impérial Rosé
• Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage 2002
• Ruinart (twice)

A very good 2011 millésime I would say! 

How cute?

Christmas

Merry Christmas!

Cheese

Often when my friends are coming for a visit from France, they ask me if I want them to bring me something. Like cheese for instance, we're French after all...

But who needs French cheese if you can have Kolibrie or Moulin Rouge brie instead?

Lots and nothing

Haven't blogged in a while... I have been busy with a lot of things even if I don't have much to blog about. Some of the things I have been doing:

• Hang out with Viviana and baby Laia
• Take the train to Stockholm (and back)
• Eat a lot of lussekatter (saffran buns) and pepparkakor (cinnamon and gingerbread cookies)
• Drink some glögg (mulled wine)
• Try to fix my shower stuff, not going too well... 
• Hang out with my best friend Sophie who was here for the week-end (was GREAT!)
• A bit of Christmas shopping and Christmas planning

That kind of stuff...
