I've had a rather busy week at work and I could us I've had a rather busy week at work and I could use a spa day right about now, but since we're still on lockdown in Slovenia, the closest I can get to that is reminiscing about a rather bizarre, but awesome spa experience in Sweden. 🛁 There's a blue-tiled, lavish Lenin spa in Varberg at hotel Gästis and there's definitely a whole lot of Lenin everywhere. Come check it out in my new blog post (link in bio). 💧

Here's a recipe for my go-to kale soup for days wh Here's a recipe for my go-to kale soup for days when your stomach needs a break from heavy food, but I also wanted to share something personal. 🥬You may have seen on my stories that I've started back with embroidery, because I inherited tons of supplies from my grandmother, who passed away in 2019. The pink placemat on the photo is the first thing I've embroidered since I was a child and it's a bit of a joint effort - my grandmother did the handmade note, which I'm assuming was the start of a piece, so I decided to finish it and add the flowers.🌸 Is there anything (a skill or an object) you've inherited from your grandparents? Anyway, check out my recipe blog post on link in bio and remember to swipe through and save the recipe for later! 🍴

Instead of my usual Wednesday book recommendations Instead of my usual Wednesday book recommendations, I'm asking for your feedback today. 😊 What would you like to see more of on my blog and social media this year? More or less travel content (I still have a ton of backlog, it just felt weird writing about it last year due to the situation), recipes, sustainability, less waste life tips? ✈️ Fiction stories or my random poetry? Would you be interested in engineering posts about obscure stuff? Let me know, I'd really appreciate your feedback and I'm open to suggestions. 😁 You can also vote in my stories today.
