After two days in Kuala Lumpur and a number of flight hours later, I've finally landed in Sweden. The trip went very well and I managed to come over three empty seats on the plane so that I could lie down and sleep. And, to travel with only hand luggage was probably the best thing ever. So convenient to not having to keep track of many bags at the airport. It seems to be a bit unusual though, to travel light because a red light was lit when they scanned my boarding pass at the gate. This was then followed by some questions about what I'm doing in Malaysia and about my luggage. Funny! Anyway, now I'm here and the feeling of seeing your beautiful country from above, when landing, after being away for a year was absolutely wonderful. Now, I'm in my little hometown Kristinehamn and with wonderful late summer weather, sun, clear blue skies and fresh air, I couldn't be anything but very happy.
Fika
To have a break during the day and sit down with friends, family or colleagues and together enjoy some coffee (kaffe) and pastries (fikabröd), that is the meaning of the word fika. For Swedes, the fika breaks (fikapaus) are the most important part of the day and of the Swedish culture.
