🪼 Tiny, toxic, and now right on our doorstep!

A clinging jellyfish has just been netted in the Öresund strait between Sweden and Denmark. 🌊

Here’s why marine biologists are sounding the alarm ⬇️

Even a brush with its tentacles can trigger 🔥 intense pain, muscle cramps, breathing problems, and severe swelling.

Scientists think it hitch-hiked all the way from the Pacific in a ship’s ballast water - meaning it’s not supposed to live here.

This is the very first confirmed catch in Danish waters, and experts say it could spread fast if conditions are right.

📍 Where else?
Spotted along Norway’s coast this year.
Previously turned up around Sweden’s west coast near Tjörn back in 2018.

🚫 Safety tips ✅ If you see a small, clear jelly with red-orange bands on its bell - do not touch it. ✅ Keep kids and pets out of puddles and seaweed where tiny jellies can hide. ✅ If stung, rinse with seawater (not fresh!) and seek medical help immediately.

🔴 Some say hobbies are things like hiking, knitting or baking sourdough 🧐

But for many government offices in Sweden, the real passion is… making things harder than they need to be 🧩🇸🇪

From waiting times longer than a Scandinavian winter 🌨️ to being asked for documents you can’t even get without the very permit you’re applying for –
this is bureaucracy at its most poetic 🙃

Blessing my EU passport daily like it’s holy water 🙏💼

🔴 Don’t walk -  RUN!

…to the nearest Polish store and grab some Ptasie Mleczko (only from E. Wedel - it’s the original and still the best 💪).

It’s my absolute favourite Polish candy. I spotted it on the shelf the other day and realised it’s been way too long since I last had it.
Want to learn the proper Polish way to eat it? Check out the video 🤩

🎲 Remember when I said Göteborg made it onto the Monopoly board?
 Well… guess who had to add it to their collection? 🙋‍♀️

I already own the Wrocław edition (🇵🇱) and a vintage Pokémon Monopoly from probably 1999 (yes, I still have all the cards). So this was non-negotiable.

But here’s the catch: 🛒 The Göteborg edition was sold out online or just unavailable everywhere I checked.
 Luckily, you can still grab it in person - at the gift shop next to the Götheborg ship! @theswedishshipgotheborg

💸 Price? Around 500 kr. 📦 Fresh batch just arrived. ⏳ Get yours before the collectors raid the shelves again.

Because let’s be honest… How often do you get to buy Baltic-harbor real estate in board game form?

1️⃣ Save this for your next visit. 2️⃣ Send to your fellow Monopoly hoarder. 3️⃣ Follow for more fun, finds & facts from Sweden.

📉 Inflation shock in Sweden!
 Prices rose 2.9% in June - way more than expected.
 Experts call it a “cold shower” and warn it could stop future interest rate cuts.
 But others say: stay calm, one jump doesn’t mean a crisis.

📌 Real impact? The Riksbank might hit pause on lowering rates this year.
 Next week’s final inflation report will be key.

Literally me in July, standing like 😐☕ just waiting for my favorite café to reopen in August.

How is it that the entire world somehow finds extra staff to cover summer vacations… and Sweden just collectively decides to close? 😂

I get it - semester is sacred - but maybe, just maybe, I wanted a cinnamon bun without scheduling it around a national shutdown?
