Last day in California - Last day of Sweetliving tour

Hi all!

The day has come. 3 months of travelling has come to an end and it's time for me to return home to Sweden for a while. I have very mixed feelings about his.  One part of me is very sad to leave this side of the world. I had the best time in every country I've been to, seen some awsome places and met some amazing people and gained many new friends. And the other side of me is very happy to return home again, to see my family and friends and to continue working with Sweetliving.

Right now I'm at Venice beach again, spending my last hours here before Willo is taking me to the airport, again :-) So I'm just gonna go down on the boardwalk now, have some breakfast by the beach, take a walk and just relax a bit before my long flight home.

And now I just want to thank all of our readers for following me on this trip. It's been a pleasure. And it's amazing that almost 1000 new readers has joined our Sweetliving blog just in the last 7 weeks. That is so    cool and it's so much more than I ever could have hoped for. So thank you all again for reading and hope you've satisfied with everything. If you have anything to say about anything just send me an e-mail.

And and just have to say that just because the tour is over doesn't mean that I will stop writing. We have a lot of plans and projects this year so we'll keep you updated, I promise, so stay with us!

BIG UP & TRUE LOVE TO ALL OF YOU !!

Willos 100th Skydive @ Skydive Perris ---------> RASTA SKY NINJAS

This Monday I went to Skydive Perris to jump with my good friend and ninja Willo on his 100th jump!

We got together 7 of his skydiving friends and put together a fun jump for him. Headdown exit followed by gathered headup in sit, focused on Willo as base. We had a great time even if we didn´t make the entired jump as planned, but that didn´t matter, Willo was satisfied, that was the important thing!

With him on this jump was Me, Danny, Nick, Lindsey, AgentLead & Paul

CONGRATULATIONS WILLO, ON YOUR 100 TH !!

Another day in Venice Beach

So before I went back to Skydive Elsinore again I just had to chill for a bit. So I took "a day off" and spent all day in Venice Beach. Took a morning walk on the boardwalk. Had some breakfast, saw alot of different people, looked in some shops and then I just crashed on the beach for like 4 hours, listening to music and just enjoyed the sun ;-) After that I had a cold beer in a nice bar right next to the pier. Life is sweet sometimes.

Here´s Venice Beach, just before sunset! It´s just beautiful. Just watch and dream away.....

Next to the boardwalk

Alot of really good skaters in Venice

I lost words....

Baywatch headquarters ;-)

Because it´s still winter the beach wasn´t to crowdy which was nice.

There was alot of room to get some peaceful hours in the sun by yourself.

Next time I publish something will be from Elsinore where Hella is waiting for me so we can do some skydiving together. And for those of you who doesn´t know, Hella is my dear friend, co-founder & business partner for Sweetliving Sweden!

Until next time my friends, Dulce Vida ;-)

Life in Bocas continues...

Somedays you just open your eyes and you automatically start smiling. You maybe tired from the long hard days at the beach or the sun following you wherever you go but the paradise smile will never fail you in Bocas.

My days here continues and I really didn´t do much but chillin´. 

The Holy Week or Semana Santa as it´s called here in Latinamerica accured now when I was here. 

 It commemorates the last week of the earthly life of Jesus Christ before his crucifixion on Good Friday and his resurrection on Easter Sunday. It includes the religious holidays of Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday (Holy Thursday) and Good Friday, and lasts from Palm Sunday until but not including Easter Sunday. It was nice to experiance it although if you weren´t Christian or Catholic. The way it affected all the visitors was that all the bars and restaurants stopped selling alcohol during Maundy Thursday until noon Saturday. But we made it through anyway ;-)

One day me and my new friends Jethro and Tim went to Red Frog beach and the Island Bastimentos to try out the surfing there. The waves wasn´t to great but we caught some water anyway, and some sun for that matter and we got to see some red frogs. Reminder, never touch a red frog cause they´re poisonous.

I spent four days here in Bocas. I wish I could stay longer cause here there is no stress, no worries. Only nice people, not so many tourists, some backpackers, nice hostels, great brekfast places, sweet restaurants, one local bar that was the best ever, and much much more.... 

Special thanks to Kathrine and here restaurant Ultimo Refugio for the best food in Central America!

Mira...!!
