When I saw the exclusive promo video for Peugeot’s new logo and brand platform yesterday, I realized the four key words can relate to travel as well as any car. Lifestyle. Communicating. Entertaining. Passion. Travel equals different things depending on who you ask. Escape. Relaxation. Happiness. Comfort. Sightseeing. Backpacking. Work. Pleasure. Volunteering. Luxury. Partying. Business. [...]

Why I Love Winter
by Erica Johansson on 07. Jan, 2010 in Thoughts
Since we will get -18 degrees Celsius here in Gothenburg tomorrow (apparently), I need to remind myself of some reasons to love winter. You get to bundle up in warm clothes, mittens, coats, hats and gloves. But skip the real fur please. When you wake up after an unexpected, heavy snowfall. Clementine season. What better [...]
Why Not Break Into Spontaneous Song?
by Erica Johansson on 17. Dec, 2009 in Thoughts, Videos
Wouldn’t life be more fun and interesting if everyone would break into spontaneous song every once in a while? Just imagine, people breaking into one of their personal favorites in the subway, on buses and trains, at the airport, in cafés and restaurants, at work, while waiting in line, and even in grocery stores. The [...]
Writing About Places You’ve Never Visited
by Erica Johansson on 03. Dec, 2009 in Thoughts
I can admit having blogged about places I’d only seen in my imagination when I started out in 2007. I wrote about destinations I wanted to visit, places that inspired me. But when you haven’t seen a city with your own eyes, experienced it, walked through it, absorbed the atmosphere, and met the people who [...]
The Ability to Be At Home Anywhere

My thought on being at home garnered a few responses on Twitter.
Living the Hawaiian Way
by Erica Johansson on 19. Nov, 2009 in Thoughts
Yesterday I came across someone’s thoughts on living the Hawaiian way and wanted to share them with you. “Living the Hawaiian Way” Never judge a day by the weather. The best things in life aren’t things. Tell the truth — there’s less to remember. Talk softly and wear a loud shirt. You can get rich [...]
No Matter Where You Are, Refuse Boredom!
by Erica Johansson on 12. Nov, 2009 in Thoughts
Do you ever get bored when traveling, or when you’re at home? Except for during some classes in school, I can barely remember the last time I felt bored. If I’m not mistaken, it was in 2008 or earlier this year when I updated my Facebook status. (Hence, I haven’t updated my status since then.) [...]
Making Excuses Not To Travel
by Erica Johansson on 05. Nov, 2009 in Thoughts
As most of you know, I have wanted to return to London for a long time. (Since September, 2007 to be exact.) At first I thought “I want to travel, but I can’t because…”, and listed various reasons in my mind, including the ones in my personal check list. “I should pay off my debts [...]
No Matter Your Location and Circumstances, Get Rid of Negative Thoughts
by Erica Johansson on 01. Nov, 2009 in Books & Guides, Thoughts
Of late, my positive, optimistic self gave into a number of negative thoughts and feelings. To pass through this state of limiting beliefs and put myself back on the right track, I read a couple of self-development books. Earlier today I finished reading Notes from a Friend by Anthony Robbins, leader in the science of [...]
Where I Have Lived
by Erica Johansson on 31. Oct, 2009 in Thoughts
The post My Cities / 2007 by Taylor Davidson inspired me to make a list of places where I have lived so far. A few nights in a hotel don’t count, only a consecutive stay of at least one month. Halmstad, Sweden Frösakull, Sweden Stockholm, Sweden Borensberg, Sweden Mayville, MI, USA Montbonnot-Saint-Martin, France Seefeld, Zurich, Switzerland Notting Hill, [...]
