My Oh my
this blog is not very alive, but still moving. It is mid-2024 now and we are in Malaysia (Penang) - the dream we have been moving to has finally arrived.
We have settled in here a while now and kids are in school (Alisa and Milo), Noah is still at the kindergarten but we are consideri...
It's been a loong time since we wrote something here - this is how many posts should start.
anyway. Updates:
Location : Tenerife (Spain)
family mood: ok
economic state: could be better
May started with the kids getting sick. First it was Alisa and them immediately Milo, they stayed at home...
It was not easy to get to Tenerife in April 2021 (pandemic and all). There were 2 charter companies that fly directly STO-Tenerife at that time (TUI and Ving). We got tickets with TUI because there were some good discounts on hotels which we planned to book for a week to find more long-term housing,...
what a year! I'm talking about 2020 of course. Despite being strange and crazy it was quite interesting and self-reflecting. We actually managed to travel a bit (Dominical rep just before the pandemic hit) and July we spent in Mallorca - it was great (but expensive).
The rest of 2020 I can't even...
After Milo was born we really wanted to go somewhere into the summer. Winter 2019-2020 in Gothenburg was not pleasant - no snow, about 0 to +5 with a lot of wind, darkness and rain. Not cool. Initially we planned to visit Emirates or something in that area - it's the closest destination that has sea...

Alisa was happy to meet her baby brother and she shows her love ev...
It's been a long time we haven't posted anything here in the blog. We are ok - it was just hard to find the time and set the priority to write something here. It is the middle of December now and we are almost ready for our long Christmas break. This yes the holidays aligned very nicely and we get a...
So I decided to take a bite of Sri Lanka bureacracy and try to exchange my greek driver licence for Sri Lankan one. I have read online that it is possible to do in Colombo but also some people mentioned that it should be doable in Galle (second largest city in Lanka). We are actually staying there n...
It has been almost 1 week since we left our home in Gothenburg and headed to Sri Lanka.
Stopover in Doha
Alena has booked the flight with Qatar (our preffered airline for travelling east, along with Turkish) and we found a long (18 hours) connection in Doha so Qatar offered us complementary lay...
It's been more than 1 year since our last long trip started back in December 2017. We have missed that feeling of travelling or being somewhere else, discovering culture, different lifestyle and warmth.
The time has come to embark on a new adventure, we are headed the same direction - East! This...
