Dear friends, I must begin this care package with an apology: I had meant to send this one week ago, but I was on a business trip to Sweden that kept me busier than I had expected. I’m back home in Lisbon now and reunited with little Stjärna (seen above being happy to be home). Having talked it over with her, I decided to allow my trip to Sweden to inspire the contents of this care package. I am going to show you some beautiful photos of a Swedish midsommar party, talk about the midnight sun, share a hack for measuring time that has to do with potatoes, and talk a bit about the serious subject of snuggling.

These care packages are my way of thanking my paying subscribers for supporting Living Elsewhere, something that I am extremely grateful for. It means the world to me that you want to be part of the Inner Elsewhere community. In case you are still just considering joining us, there is currently a 20% sale on annual subscriptions (until Stjärna’s birthday in July).

So, are you ready to take a little trip to Sweden? Let’s go…
