Style in Sweden

I’m back in Lund and as you can see I survived the Norrland trip. Fashion saved my life (as usual). My new rubber boots were the perfect shoes in the swamps and were even comfortable in the mountains.

I also had a special anti-mosquito jacket that my boyfriend’s father gave me. The army patterns were not exactly my style but I was really glad to have some protection against the annoying insects. The jacket included also a mask, which I just used when I really couldn’t stand the massive mosquito invasion. I think if I wore the mask here in Lund people would think that I wanted to rob a bank.

Look here…

Perfect protection against mosquitoes.

Even on my head...sometimes...

My friend Dag was much tougher than me and forwent all useful anti-mosquito fashion accessories. He didn’t even want any sprays or creams. Well, in the end I had about 15 bites. He had approximately 50 ones…on one arm.

Dag and me.

Apart from the mosquitoes, I was really impressed by the nature.

Sometimes there was snow even though it wasn’t cold…

We even made a snowman when we climbed a mountain.

Sometimes it was really warm so it was possible to swim in the rivers and lakes.

The rural atmosphere made me forget all the hair styling products and make-up that I normally use. I was “clean” during that week.

I really enjoyed the week in Funäsdalen in Norrland. Even if I really love big cities it’s a great experience to be cut off from the world for some days…

Dag.
