So if anyone of you who got a great compact digital camera or knows good ones …please recommend me a camera to buy :-)

I’ve had Canon G12, which was great but still t0o heavy and big and I gave it to my sister when I visited her in Asia…

Now I’m using a SLR camera, Nikon D5100, Lens: Nikkor 35 mmf/1.8 G…but as I wrote in the beginning, it’s too big and too heavy to bring with me daily.

Yesterday I went to Copenhagen, Denmark…and with me on my way back I bought some Danish pastries :-) My friend Hana has praised the Danish drømmekage (dreamcake) and linse (shortbread cookie with cream filling) so I found a bakery where I bought them and a classic wienerbrød (Danish pastry). I’ve baked the dreamcake several times at home before and no wonder why they call it dreamcake..it tastes like a dream. It’s like a spongecake with a topping of coconut flakes and farine sugar…heavenly delicious! When I got back to my moms place later in the evening we enojoyed the pastries I had bought with a cup of tea :-)

Ever since I was a child I’ve loved the pastries in Denmark, I used to go there often when I was living in the south of Sweden, takes only 20 minutes by train over the bridge so it’s not that far at all. They really know how to make delicious pastries and it’s the closest I can get to something that is comparable with French pastries in Scandinavia. Even though they don’t bake the same things..I can feel they have the same passion when it comes to making delicious pastries and that does it ALL.

Love, Solli

Merry Christmas! God Jul! Joyeux Noël! Hope you all are having a beautiful Christmas with your loved ones :-)

Christmas for me symbolizes family gathering, and I wish instead of giving and opening more presents…we should be better in giving love and open our hearts. Christmas should be a magical day full of joy and happiness, to spend time with the people you love.

Love to you all!

So this is it, I’m turning 30 years old! Right now I’m on the island Malapascua in the Philippines. I’ve always loved exotic islands…and palm trees. When I was turning 10 years old I wished to get a big poster on palmtrees and my mom bought one as my birthday gift. Now, exactly 20 years later I’m celebrating my birthday with my sister on an island…crowded with palmtrees :-) That’s happiness!

Another nice birthday gift must be that I finally will get rid of my braces (as you can see on the photo above) I’ve had them since October 2009. When I get back from my Asia-trip my dentist told me he will take them off, wohoo!

During my vaccation I’ll have a vacction from my sweet MacBook Pro aswell…we both need vaccation if you know what I mean ;-) BUT I’ve prepared blogposts that are time scheduled..so between December 1st 2011-January 6th 2012 my blog is updated almost every second day with time scheduled blogpost so don’t forget to stop by ;-)

Even though I will leave my laptop at home it doesn’t mean my camera won’t come along! He will be my partner during this trip and I will share my adventures and photos with you when I get back in January. Until then, take care!
