Hej friends! The sun is shining, and the Scandinavian summer is in full swing. I have been swept up in the relaxed vibe and now that my children are finally free, we have arrived for a few days in the Swedish high coast – to explore and soak up the scenery of the breath-taking archipelagos. With this in mind, I will be taking some time out from My Scandinavian Home and will be back here again on Monday 22nd July. 

But I’d never leave you high and dry without some inspiration – so here are a couple of snapshots from a stunning summer house in Smögen, on Sweden’s West Coast complete with its own jetty – after all, Mondays are made for dreaming, right? 

So beautiful! 

The more I explore of Sweden, the more beauty I find – and with its immense coastline and thousands of lakes, waterfront cottages are forever present! 

I have a dream to live overlooking the water – maybe one day this will come true, but for now I will admire from a far! Do you share the same dream? Or perhaps there are other vistas you long for? 

Wishing you all a wonderful week – see you next Monday!

Niki
