Show a little faith there's magic in the night
We arrived early Sunday morning and Milan greeted us with two things: brutal heat (35°C) and a not-so-warm welcome at the hotel. Our room wouldn’t be ready until 15:00 and the staff gave off such a bad vibe that we decided to carry our backpacks around rather than leave them. To kill time and to... Continue Reading →
After a rest day in Cologne with time for laundry and recovery, I was back with Oliver again and on our way to Gelsenkirchen. Sylvia and her friend Martina were going to drive us there and back, so we wouldn’t have to deal with overcrowded trains. We had some doubts about this one. Many fans... Continue Reading →
🚌 Saying Goodbye & Arriving in San Sebastián As I mentioned in my last post, Oliver had to head back to Cologne and work, but he persuaded me to stay. So, after a bittersweet goodbye, I caught the bus from Bilbao to San Sebastián. It’s only about an hour and twenty minutes and the road... Continue Reading →
After sitting out both Berlin and Prague, I have been nursing a proper case of FOMO. Oliver having been at both, was sending updates and photos while I followed along from a distance, equally happy for him and equally envious. I knew I couldn’t be everywhere, but it still stung a little to watch the... Continue Reading →

This weekend, Oliver and I were back in Brussels at the beautiful venue Forest National, this time to see Michael Kiwanuka. He’s a British singer-songwriter that Oliver first recommended to me back in 2022 when he played at the Way Out West Festival in Gothenburg. His music is often described as ”a blend of folk,...

When Jason Isbell announced his ”An Intimate Evening with Jason Isbell”-tour, I knew this was a show I didn’t want to miss. However, with only five dates in Europe (and none of them in Sweden) it was going to be tricky to find a suitable one. Luckily, a week’s school holiday in February fitted quite... Continue Reading →
The exciting month of November 2024 continues. This time we packed our bags and headed to Copenhagen for the weekend to see Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. I was actually travelling by bus. It takes about 4,5 hours to go by bus from Gothenburg to Copenhagen, cheaper and more practical this time. Last time... Continue Reading →
November 2024 will be an intense month of concerts and travelling. Kicking off with a trip to Brussels, where we will see London Grammar. Next weekend we’ll go to Copenhagen to see Jason Isbell, then Frank Turner is playing in my hometown Gothenburg on Monday November 11. The highlight, however, will be a week’s trip...
