- A visit to Tjolöholm Castle
- I made my own tea bags once
- Crunchy Parmesan Crisp recipe – so simple and so delicious

The name of this blog, Lyckoland, makes perfect sense in Swedish, but if you, like the majority of the people on this earth, don't speak this odd language, I would translate it into something like the land of happiness.
I blog in Swedish and Swenglish, and if English is your native language, you will find imperfections and grammatical mistakes. Bear with me, please.
I started this blog in 2008, and it's been a good friend of mine ever since. It started out as a way for me to write about my dreams, thoughts and frustrations and to remember the days passing by. Today, this blog is more of a way for me to channel my creativity and take part in this sparkling, inspirational revolution where people create amazing things and share it to the community, simply out of love.
