Airport.





Hello everybody! Right now I’m sitting at the Heathrow airport waiting for my plane to take off.
Found some really good stores here like Clarks, Abercrombie and some other stores. Bought some last stuff to my family and to myself. The Clarks store hade a pair of comfortable shoes that I bought.
Counted on how much I have spent here in London and it is around 1900 pounds which is around 20222 kronor and that’s means that I have 30.000 kronor left for my next trip which is to Paris.
I think that this week here in London have been awesome and lovely. I have got a new very good friend and she told me that next time I am coming to London I'm welcome to stay at her place.
But I have to go now my plane has arrived and I will check in now, so Bye Bye!!

That was most of it, but not all for me ;)

The ending is near.

Hi Guys! Today I spent my last day here in England, but it was the best day of them all.
Started the morning whit a breakfast at the hotel. It was buffet so I ate so much that barley could walk after that. Hahaha.
Then it was time for me to spend my last day and I have to admit I spent it very well.
Before the lunch I did some tourist things like I visited London eye which I had to stay in line for an hour, but it was worth it.
Then I took a tour whit these tourist buses and just travel around London city. Afterwards I was really hungry so I found a lovely restaurant named Rodzioi Rico which is an Brazilian restaurant and the the food was the best ever. They had a offer that ate :’’ Eat as much as you desire BBQ meats, salads and hot dishes’’ it cost me 23 pounds and wow what a good taste.
Then after the lunch I just walked around in London and looked at clothes. I visited the famous mall center Harrods, but I didn’t buy anything. after a while of just looking I actually bought  a dress from marcs and spencer ( which I love!).
After some looking and shopping I finally found the famous bakery Ladurée. I ate a lovely macaroon and drank a latte.
Afterwards the evening I spent at Sarahs place eating homemade dinner made by Sarah and watching the soccer game between Liverpool and Manchester and I have to admit it actually was a really good match and I’m not that in to soccer. But Manchester made a goal in the last 5 minutes which changed result to 2-1 to Manchester. Then I had to say goodbye and thank her and so on and the walk to the hotel was very good because I could just let my mind go and think about how much new experience my trip have given me.
  And now I have packed all my stuff and I just have to set my alarm at 5:00am Whoo Whooo!!!
Sweet Dreams!

Todays costs:

Lunch 23.50 pounds
Ladurée 5 pounds
dress 25 pounds

Day 5/ Back in london

Hello hello!
Sitting the train back to London and I didn't have so much time left in Cambridge.
so I only ate breakfast and checked out from the hotel.
right now I'm sitting at the train and have nothing to do so I thought that I could write a little bit about Sarah. Ps, Sarah is better now and she said that I could come and visit later on ( Will by some food for dinner to us).


Sarah:
Brown hair,blue eyes and she is long over 170 cm. She is almost always happy and she has a smile that you cant forget. She is not that in to fashion.i think her favorite outfit is a t-shirt with jeans and a small purse.
When I first met her she was shy, but now I cant think of her as a shy person.
She lives in London with her boyfriend Jonas and is studying to be a doctor ( she is really good in school.)
She has the most cutest dog I ever seen named Silly.
Sarah once said to me that she was really jealous at me because I had 2 siblings and she didn't have any. So she has a wish for someone to share these ''siblings'' stuff with, but she also said that she really enjoyed many times to have mom and dad for her self.
Sarah is a very energy full person who loves to run and jump and talk ( just like me). She is a football player and a huge fan of manchester United.
I actually didn't tell you guys what happened to sarah really. Well she was in a bike accident with a tree
( she is a bit clumpy) and she broke a foot and got a concussion, but as it seems now she is recovering very fast and if everything goes as it should she should be out of the hospital tomorrow morning :).
This is the things I can come up with right now about Sarah.
Oooh the train is stopping yaaayyy Back in London. Will take a cab to the hotel and check in again and buy some good tasting food and then I will be heeded of to Sarah.!!!
Think I will buy some Sushi because Sarah loves that.

Bye Bye See ya! Sweet Dreams! :)


Todays Costs:


Cab to the train station in Cambridge 10 pounds


lunch ( made some sandwiches from the breakfast at the hotel hihi).


cab to the hotel in London 10 pounds


Dinner for two Sushi 20 pounds

Cambridge Adventure



Time goes fast when you have a good time doesn't it? Anyway this is what happened today:
Started the morning with a walk to the swimming arena near the hotel. Felt like I had to train a bit after these wonderful days of eating and shopping. Swam around 3000 m which is pretty good after no training for a long time.
Afterwards I ate I well deserved breakfast at a small café near the arena. Marmalade sandwiches with orange juice was the order.
Later on I took a buss in to town. Today I actually did something new, I singed up to a tourist guide which I thought would be fun. 
Here you can read exactly what the tour included: ''Our Royal Cambridge Tour will concentrate on Cambridge's rich Royal heritage from William the Conqueror to the recent announcement that Prince William and Kate Middleton have taken the title, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Entrance to the magnificent King's College and Chapel is also included when available, if closed we will visit St John's College.''
The tour was about 1,5 hour and it included buss trip  back and forth. It costed me 11 pounds and it was totally wort it. 
Later on I ate a small lunch at Starbucks which was a latte and a chicken salad.
Then the rest of the day I spent walking around, taking pictures and I did some shopping also.
At the evening I went to a spanish tapas bar named ´´La Tasca´´ and ate an amazing dinner.
Todays Costs:
Swimming arena 2 Pounds
Guide tour 11 Pounds
Lunch 4 pounds
Breakfast 2 Pounds
Shopping 30 pounds
= 52 pounds

Changed the Plans



Hello everybody changed plans! Got a call from Sarah this morning.That she is in hospital because she had been in some accident with her bike. She said that she would not be able to be with me this week because she need all rest she could get.
So when I was sitting there in the hotel rum whit all my stuff alone I thought '' Oh why not make a little trip alone then instead of being here all alone. I had packed all my stuff. I went down to the lobby to say that I wanted to check out for two days. And it would be a really nice gesture if I could get back money for those two days. After talking to the man in the lobby, he said that I was lucky because the hotel had full booked and they needed a room for two nights.
After checking out I took the underground to Sarah's hospital to check on her and so on.
The staff at the hospital only gave me 20 minutes to visit Sarah. It was a really nice chat we changed email and addresses and I payed her, but she wouldn't take the money so I had to force her and finally she took them, but she said that she had had really good time with me and she wanted to do it again. I told her that she was very welcome to Stockholm and visit and live at my place. She said that she would love that.
So now you guys probably wonder where I am right now. I took a train shortly after visiting Sarah to Cambridge for 6 £.
I'm at a hotel named ''The golden ball'' which I payed 150 pound for 2 nights here in the center of  Cambridge. The hotel is lovely.
I thought that I would explore Cambridge and Tomorrow go to the University of cambridge or something else.
I will go back to london after the two days here in Cambridge ( I have so much more to explore and I really want to visit Sarah agin.)
Now I have to go to beed I'm really tired after this day.
Todays spent.
Train 6 pounds
lunch 3 pounds ( bought a sandwich on the way)
Hotel 150 pounds.
Dinner included in the hotel cost.
And +200 pounds from the hotel.


Sarah's flowers I gave her! <3

Good Night!

Day 2 /Shopping and some nice food!

God evening everybody! Have you guys have had good day? Well my day was great! Did actually a lot of shopping (will show some pictures of what I bought).
I started the day whit an awesome breakfast at the hotel ‘’The Langham hotel’’. The breakfast was fabulous and it may have been the best breakfast in my whole life and I have 6 more wonderful breakfasts waiting for me at this hotel. I ate a full English whit some tea and after some muffins.
After the lovely breakfast I took a nice walk down to oxford-street where I met Sarah outside Harrods. Then I did a lot of shopping, but this was my only shopping day because I have a  schedule for all days.
Anyway I bought a lot of stuff (Sarah showed me the best stores) all from socks to dresses and some souvenirs.  We ate a sandwich each from Starbucks and cup of coffee for lunch. Later on we did leave all my shopping bags at the hotel room and took a long nice walk in London. We talked about a lot of stuff because Sarah is that kind of person that you can talk about everything. Well the most of you guys may think that we barely know each other, but the thing is just that it feels like Sarah and I were meant to be friends.
London is one of the most beautiful cities I have ever been in. I love the buildings and specialty the Parliament.
At the evening we went to a little classic English pub and ate some fish and chips and we drank each a glass of beer.
Afterwards we went separate ways, but both for a well-deserved sleep after a Fantastic second day!  
Today's spending:
150 Pounds Clothes (Not just for me)
6 pounds for dinner
4 pounds for lunch
The hotel costs 1350pounds for one week.
The flight tickets did cost 90 pounds whit SAS.
 
Gilly hicks was just one of the new investments in my wardrobe ;).

Starbucks can it be better?! haha yes it can! :D
'
The amazing hotel ( will show you more pics from inside later).

Well thats exactly what i ate!
Now its time for me to sleep! <3

Day 1

Hey guys! Here I’m just arrived to my Hotel room after a comfortable flight from Sweden and a great first day in London.
I will spend a week here in London and explore and do some shopping.
I make 1 trip every year to a new city in Europe, because I like to explore and learn about different countries and this year the trip went to London.
Something I always do when I travel like this alone is that I have some kind of student guide. I almost always choose a girl because it’s easier.  This girl I’m whit now is a student who is studying at University of London. Her name is Sarah and she is going to show med London’s best places an more have she promised and so far I’m really happy. The best thing of all is that me and Sarah just clicked, we was like made for each other!
What happened today:
Today I have most been traveling, but later on the afternoon Sarah and I took a walk in to the city and just checked the stores and just talked. Sarah is really funny.
In the evening she took me to the Sherlock Holmes pub which had delicious food.  I ate Sherlock’s Own 8oz sirloin of beef, grilled to your choice, served with tomato, mushrooms, fries and garnish. As desert I ate Sticky Toffee Pudding with Ice Cream and to all this I just drank water.  Sarah ate the same things she was the one who recommended of course I pay Sarah’s food also or well it’s included in her salary for guiding me. Her salary is around 40-50 pounds a day. Today My dinner cost me 22 pounds after giving some extra pounds to the nice servitor.
