Why does every apartment, store, etc. look like it came straight out of a catalog? I love the Swedish aesthetic. Every space is so simple, chic, natural, and minimalistic. Gosh, I absolutely it!

I love long summer days. This year I’ve started getting up at 6am instead of my usual 7am and I enjoy my morning coffee looking out to my garden. Where I live in the UK Sun is rising about 5am and setting 9.20pm. I love the feeling of extra time in the evenings and feel sad our days are already shortening

I love watching how people live in other countries. Love learning how we’re similar and how we differ. Where I live in 🇨🇦, sunrise is currently at 5:30am and sunset is at 10:30 but doesn’t get fully dark until midnight. We have blackout curtains in our bedroom so that it’s dark enough to sleep. I love the long days but if I’m not paying attention I’ll stay up way too late!
I envy the time you get to spend outdoors in summer. I wake up at 5:00AM so that I can walk my dog and get my workout in before the heat of the day which as of late has been 101 degrees by 8:00AM here in Phoenix, AZ. Much of our time is spent indoors in the air-conditioning which was never a problem before, but with being inside for so long during the Pandemic, the last thing I want to do is be inside! I wouldn't mind the long days in Sweden, however, it may be a challenge getting used to sunlight at 10:00PM. Thanks for the share, Benita, always a pleasure.

Hello Benita 😀 Long summers days ~ I am an early riser - but also can be a night owl, this could be challenging! ❤ Mini and Bonus ~ I love how you are with them, we just got a new Kitty - her name is Nellie😻 - already the has claimed her domain💓💞💓 Your days are so relaxing - I've watched this video already twice already. When I take public transit I go directly to the back to find a seat (I always think I will see more outside from the back ~ don't know why). Walking around, window shopping, going to look at apartments (gorgeous apartments), and stopping for a glass of wine or lunch is such a lovely way to spend the day. Thank you for sharing - I think I will watch this video again! 😍 Hope your mom is feeling well.🌻🌷🌻

Thank you Benita for the lovely relaxing summer visit. Your method of filming during travel is very interesting. I noticed how clean and new your sidewalks are and your buses. Bright cheerful seats but the floor was super clean, no dust and grime in corners at all. I super enjoy seeing your organized and minimal apartment. I have grown into this vibe in past couple of years following retirement. I ran a child daycare out of my home for 40+ years and furnished my home to accommodate the children’s environment. That meant a lot of organizing places for children’s toys and needs. It also meant there were very little decor items that were not very child friendly. My decor items were often limited to plastic items or stones and driftwood and natural items. Now I enjoy much cleaner surfaces and spaces without markers and many childhood creations and a much less hectic lifestyle. Have a lovely day today, everyone.🇨🇦
