It's a beach life!

Some of you know that I spent 3 years in the South of Sweden. We really enjoyed ourselves there, discovering new places, meeting new people. 

The winters were just a tad long.....But the summers were wonderful. Somehow we never thought that the weather would be as good as it got, During the summer time, temperatures can reach more than 30 degrees C. So we made the most of it and enjoyed going to the beach and visiting nearby islands (Ven), whenever possible.

As it is today still summer and most of us are on holiday, I wanted to share some photos of Sweden in the sunshine. This is the coast of Sweden, Skåne and Bohuslän regions. 

Happy beach life !

Enjoy the rest of your holiday and summer. And if you have the opportunity to go to the coast, grab it.

    1. Hi Diane,

      Around Gothenburg and Lund, the landscape is really beautiful and there are many beaches with white sand. If you like the peace and quiet on the coast, I would recommend it. The temperatures are nice in June and July mainly (that's when the Swedes take their holidays).

      Have a nice week-end.

  2. Et l'eau? Tu t'y es baignée, d'une température correcte pour y tremper son popotin???

    Je crois que du coup, j'opterais plus pour balade avec l'appareil photo que séance bronzette sur la plage. Mais peut-être est-ce une fausse idée?

    Je t'embrasse bien fort!!!

    1. Chrys,

      Oui nous nous sommes baignés dans l'eau qui est en fait plus chaude que la mer en Bretagne (en tout cas au sud de la Suède). C'est étonnant et agréable!

      Bises.

  5. Je ne connais pas la Suède mais l'envie ne manque pas de la découvrir. A en juger par tes photos, je suis sûre que mon appareil photo serait ravi que je l'y emmène ;-)

    1. C'est très beau en effet. J'aime particulièrement la région du sud (Skane), celle de Kalmar et la côte ouest autour de Gothenbourg. Oui, si tu as l'occasion d'y aller, ton appareil photo va bien se régaler, en effet. Que ce soit en hiver, au printemps, en été ou en automne, les lumières sont très intéressantes.

      A bientôt.
