About Me

I am Swedish and I live in the Southwest of France. I write about food and other pleasures, places I visit and people I meet. Aquitaine is a special place. Not only because of the local gastronomy or the world-famous wine, but because of its atmosphere... here you enjoy life, with a savoir-vivre that is legendary. Let me take you there. If not in real life, at least in your dreams.
