✨ Ever heard of gårdsbutiker or Reko-rings in Sweden?

They’re farm shops where you can buy super fresh, local produce, like milk, berries, veggies, eggs, or meat, straight from the people who produce it 🥛🥬🥚

Each place is a little different. Some let you pick your own strawberries or raspberries straight from the field (often at a lower price). Others offer pre-orders or even have tiny cafés where you can grab a fika with homemade cake 🍓☕️

This milk? Just 15 kronor per liter - fresh from the farm, and you can bring your own bottle to fill.

🧭 Find this gem here:📍Kåhögs Mjölk, Byvägen 47, 433 76 Jonsered

Would you try something like this on your next Swedish countryside trip?

Got invited to a Swedish BBQ, so of course I brought my signature apple pie 🍏🔥
*self-promo*

It’s quick, it’s cozy, and it usually disappears before I even sit down 😂 (Swedish neighbors asking for seconds? Always a good sign.)

The recipe’s actually from my own e-book. A rhubarb version made it in, but I keep remixing it for every season. Because honestly… why complicate things?

Midsommar: The Swedish Way is still available on my website - it’s over 140 pages with 31 recipes, perfect not just for Midsommar but any family or friend gathering you host or attend 💙

🌭 A korv war is sizzling in Sweden!
 Stockholm copied Gothenburg’s iconic “KORV KIOSK” sign and göteborgare are not having it 😂

“They stole our särskrivning,” one local says. Meanwhile, the Stockholm team calls it “a tribute.” 😅

Is it a copy or a compliment?
 Only one thing is certain… this beef is 100% Swedish 🇸🇪

Discover the hidden gem of Slovenia: Trojane ❤️

A tiny village perched on a hill between Carniola and Styria, once a Roman milestone named Atrans, now famous country‑wide for its legendary Trojane krofi 🇸🇮

These fluffy, golden doughnuts, originally served to refuel travelers, are still hand‑formed by local bakers using a secret recipe unchanged since the 1960s. Every year they fry 2,000 to 5,000 krofi daily, and over 140 million in 60 years. That’s at least 70 for every Slovene!

Traditionally filled with apricot jam, but today you can also find chocolate, blueberry, vanilla or coconut‑topped versions. Each one weighs about 200 g, twice the size of a regular doughnut!

Better than the Polish pączki I grew up on. Light, airy, with just the right sweetness and a whisper of rum in the dough. Tour buses line up just for a taste. You can’t miss their giant roadside banner from the highway.

Craving more? Our full Slovenia vlog is now live on YouTube—link in bio for all the adventures! 🎬

Sweden is one of the most dog-friendly travel destinations we’ve been to 🐶🇸🇪

Most restaurants are happy to welcome your furry friend and it’s not unusual to spot a hundmeny (dog menu!) next to yours.

There’s water bowls at the entrance, a warm smile from the staff, and often even a treat or two 🦴

Public transport? No problem. Nature walks? Endless.

The only thing we wish was different? Summer beaches 😕

It’s surprisingly hard to find clear info ahead of time about whether dogs are allowed and in most cases, you only find out at the beach that your pup isn’t welcome. Total mood killer when you’ve just hiked there together.

Have you traveled with your dog in Sweden? Any favorite spots to recommend?👇

🔴 How can they call them cheese crisps?! 🤬

Cheetos Ketchup flavoured are my forever favourite - I don’t think I have any other crisps I like that much (that being said I’m not crisps person at all). So hard to find in Sweden 🇸🇪 - mostly in Polish stores.

These I bought at ICA in Partille but… how are they marked in Swedish as ostbågar?

Is it cheating on Swedish consumers or just they don’t have any other word for corn extruded corn crisps?

What are Swedes overly sensitive about? Let’s start with… laundry 😆

❌ You cannot be late for your slot — there’s an invisible army of neighbors ready to pounce the moment your time is up.

❌ You definitely can’t stay a minute longer hoping no one shows up (even if you’re all packed and pretending to leave 👀).

❌ And good luck trying to schedule a meetup with a Swede… who just so happened to book the laundry room that day.

🇸🇪 Laundry culture here is a thing.

What else do you think Swedes take very seriously? 👇
