Bullerbyn

We just got back from a lovely trip to Sweden. This time we visited Småland and it's definitely my favorite part of Sweden, but I said that before. It really is such a magical part of Sweden I can't describe it. Even in winter with everything covered in snow, it's magical. Maybe it's because Astrid Lindgren lived here and left trails of things that were so important in my childhood such as Bullerbyn getting alive or actually touching Pipi's lemonade tree. For the first time I set foot in Lönneberga and although it's not the place Emil i Lönneberga was actual filmed, it felt like it.

Astrid Lindgrens Värld

The highlight of this trip was definitely Astrid Lindgrens Värld in Vimmerby and not just because everything is "too cute" but also because we were the only visitors in the park! We felt like two crazy kids running around because we were having everything for our own not knowing where to start.

Lotta's House

The Lovely girl who worked there even had to push the button to the new Seacrow Island ride for us alone. It was mental but so much fun. I think I never giggled and ooh-ed and aa ah-ed that much about something so childishly silly. I loved it!!

Lotta's Room Left

Lotta's room inspired me so much and I almost felt a little at home when I entered the room they created in the yellow house Lotta lived in.

Lotta's Room Right

Makes me really want to paint something blue in my house.

I can recommend Småland in winter because there are zero tourists, well just two crazy people without proper winter clothes from The Netherlands.
