Yesterday I met a friend at Sofitel’s skybar Coco Mango, we had a few drinks and then walked over to their restaurant for dinner, we ate a cod with salmon – very interesting. After dinner and delicious desserts we went back to the bar for more drinks, mom came and we had a few drinks all together. We had such a great time, laughing and joking..all of us being completely ridiculous :P

My little Armani got its own seat next to me, cute.

Friday Sofia and I met up at Zanzen, later Olof joined and we went to a bagle place for lunch. That evening Sofia and I went back to her house for dinner. We spent our evening watching a movie about trafficking, drinking tea and just relaxing. We went to bed quite early and then slept more than 12 hours until Sofia’s father Frits woke us up by slamming two pots together – my God it was echoing in my ears for half an hour! Haha.

Then I met my mother and Isabelle in town, they had been shopping so we went for a drink in Grund before going home.

I’ll stay home the rest of the weekend and spend time with my mom before I go back to Stockholm on Monday morning!

Girls Night In

Thursday night Sofia came in from Brussels and Myrto flew in from Greece so we all met at Eleonora’s house for a girls night in. We didn’t feel like going out so we opened five bottles of champagne and just had fun. I haven’t seen Myrto in about 3 years so it was great seeing her again. My God, reading my own blog posts from this week it seems I don’t see my best friends at all ?! haha

The next day Eleonora went back to Athens :(

Catching up with dear friends

Wednesday Yannis invited me for dinner at his place, Yannis is one of my best friends here in Lux and we haven’t seen each other in many years. Every time I was in Lux he was out travelling etc. We had a delicious dinner and a few drinks then we went to check out his new bar he has opened, the name of the place is Epic and I was so proud of him when I saw it! Wow.

Eleonora met us at Epic, we had a few drinks and then went home. Thursday Eleonora and I had lunch in town, did some shopping, had our new favourite ice tea at Downtown and just hung out. I’ve missed her so much, it’s been so great seeing her again, Sagapao verikokaki mou!

Tuesday I met Eleonora and Giorgos in town, we went for a drink at Chris’ new place Downtown and then we went back to Ele’s house where we played Monopoly and catched up. I spent the entire summer last year with Eleonora in Greece and that was the best summer ever. So since July last year we haven’t seen each other so we had a lot of catching up to do. I was so happy to see her again, I miss her! That’s the downside with having your home in two different countries: you get to see your best friends once a year:/

The last supper

Tuesday night, the night before my departure from D.C, our last supper. Haha. We went to a really interesting restaurant, they had this drink which tasted like a mix between sangria, ice tea and beer! That’s what we’re drinking on the photos below, it was all about how far away from your mouth you could keep it.

This is the day I got sick so I was feeling very under the weather but we had a nice time, then straight home to bed after dinner :)

Hi everyone! I’m at home in Luxembourg now. Haven’t been home in almost a year and a half so now my mother had enough and booked me a ticket to come see her. I took a plane this morning and it is SO GOOD TO BE BACK! I love Luxembourg, it’s so peaceful and beautiful here. Mom and I have been talking non stop since I arrived this morning, so much catching up to do. We went grocery shopping, had lunch and now we’re comparing our tech skills on our computers haha. I realize now how much I’ve missed her, we love spending time together.

Eleonora flew in from Athens as well, I haven’t seen her since last summer when we spent the whole summer in Greece together. I’m super excited to see her!

So now I’m sitting in the sofa, blogging and eating chocolate. In a little bit mom and I will open a bottle of champagne and celebrate me being back.

Recently I’ve had so much going on and I haven’t replied to any of your comments in a while now, this week I’ll just take it easy, get back to normal with my blogging and hand out with my friends!

Tuesday before I went back the girls and I had a little roadtrip out to one of our friend’s office..or massive building is more like it. He showed us his building and then we went for lunch. He had a meeting so us girls went shopping together, had Pinkberry for dessert etc. I wore a simple but colourful t-shirt and Acne jeans – so not what I usually wear but I like it, chilled.

Monday before I left to go back to Sweden we hosted a dinner party at Rick’s house. Elina and Cindy just got back from Miami and Vegas and it was so nice seeing them again, my girls. We had such an amazing evening, food was amazing, Godiva chocolates for dessert – Rick sure knows what women love. A nice evening with great friends and new friends, what could be better.

Sunday Brunch in D.C

Brunch must be my favourite meal/event of the week. It’s so nice meeting up a few friends for bloody mary’s, mimosas and good food. The perfect ending to a week if you ask me:)

My last Sunday in D.C Justin invited us over for a Sunday brunch. He made very spicy Bloody Mary’s and a fantastic omelette!

When I have a family I’ll force brunch upon them as a solid tradition, at least once a month! Cosy.
