My office



Got back from office early yesterday, and get a chance for the first time to take its picture. Just realized how squarish my office is.

Skating during winter




I was thinking what is another fun activities during winter apart from skiing and sleeping. Suddenly this idea came after my long sleep last night, well why don't we try to skate? Yes this is equally fun like skiing, but you only require less gear. The most popular spot for skating in Stockholm are Kungsträdgården. But for foreigners who aren't familiar with skating, I've to warn you this, start slowly. Don't try to compete with the Stockholm folks, even with the kids because you might experience your painful experience, I mean by falling down.

Drottningholm Palace



The Drottningholm Palace is the private residence of the Swedish royal family. You can go there by taking a boat from Stockholm city during summer. The ride is quite lovely and romantic.



Just see what happened to the lake during winter.

Only in winter






No, this is far more beautiful than laser show that normally you see during fun fair. This is what the famous "Northern Light" is all about. The picture only describes 5% of the feeling when do you see it live. It's relaxing, calming and stunning to see the light dances in the sky.
For those who are serious to catch this, you should come to sweden between September and October or March to April. This is a thing not to be missed if you are in Sweden during winter.

Trap in snow


My siter was trap in snow.

Winter is beautiful





In fact it's equally beautiful with the other 3 seasons.

Fun in winter


Who says you can't have fun in winter? You can indeed! Winter sets in roughly from Nov 1 to March 21, and you need to be a little creative to enjoy the moment.

For those who enjoys skiing, north of Sweden offer a perfect spot for that.
