WEEK IN MY LIFE – LIVING IN SWEDEN DURING COVID

Hey babes💕 As some of you may know, Sweden has delt with the pandemic in a way that is quite different from most other European countries. After I spent most of 2020 in lockdown in Germany, I had to get used to the life here because it is so “normal” in comparison to what I experienced in Germany over the past months.😷

Luckily, I was able to spend the first few weeks of my internship here in the office and I really hope that it will re-open soon but right now I’m working from home because the office got shut down after some colleagues were tested positive for Covid😷 To get some impressions of my work at the office, you can read my blog post “First Week On The Job” which you can find here 🤩

So, for three weeks now, I’ve been working from home🙈 During my work days, I don’t really do much these days. I’m excited for summer, when the sunset is gonna be at around 11pm so that I still have time to do stuff after I finish work☀️

Staying at home all day and not having any important video conferences, I always try to put on a comfy outfit that still looks put together, so I feel a bit more awake and motivated😊 I either choose some flowy pants and a light blouse or a comfy sweatset as you can see in this picture🙈

When i finish work and the weather is nice, I love to explore Stockholm and spend time outside to get some sunlight☀️ The city has the most beautiful paths right by the water and I’ve been enjoying going for long walks there😍

As I said, Sweden deals with the pandemic in a different way than most other European countries. Here, shopping malls, restaurants, and bars are still open and people really live with this pandemic instead of shutting their doors and staying home. So on the weekends, I like to go have some drinks or nice food with friends to balance my work week with some social time😊

I haven’t been to a restaurant in so long because they’re all closed back in Germany🤭 The other day, I had the best burger I’ve had in a while when I went for lunch with a friend😍 We went to “Crème Stockholm” and it was so delicious🤤

To balance all the days spent at my desk and all the good food I’m having here, I try to workout at least five times a week💪🏼 I got into quite a good routine of working out directly after I finish work, so I can get comfy and cook dinner afterwards😊 Getting into a routine always requires self discipline but once you get used to it, you quickly feel the need of sticking to it because otherwise you feel like you missed some part of your day🙈 So just take it day by day when you try to create a routine for yourself and you’ll see, you’ll get used to it quicker than you might think!👏🏼

So currently, I’m just waiting for the weather to get warmer and the days to be longer but for now, I’m really happy with the routine I’ve created and am excited to see what other parts of Stockholm I can explore and what I’m gonna experience in the next months🙈😍 As always, take care loves, I’ll talk to you soon💕
