Vasa-Sven

Stockholm, Sweden: Distance Travelled = 20,618 miles

Morning all!
As you can see I'm back on this side of the world again. I've gone to Stockholm and I had to go to the Vasa Museum. The Vasa is a ship that was built by a king a long time ago. It had everything you could possibly want on it, including the kitchen sink and so of course it sank! Not funny really, but it meant that the ship was preserved and I could go and see it, which is awesome. I loved the biig canons, brilliant! I hope I see more cannons on my travels!
More adventures very soon.
lots of love

Athenian-Sven

Athens, Greece: Distance Travelled = 22,115 miles

Hello!
ah, the warmth of Athens after Sweden. It's great here, warm, wonderful, wicked. I'm here with Sven, you can see the resemblance I think. I'm not sure I approve of our choice of lunch, coming all the way over to Greece and then eating fast food, but needs must sometimes! McDonalds first came to Greece in 1991 and this was the very first restaurant in Syntagma square. Ah the culture of Greece, love it! hmmm. Oh well, onwards to my next destination.....
lots of love

Sportlov-Sven

Posted 12th April 2009 - Journey: 2003
Åre, Sweden: Distance Travelled = 23,928 miles

Hello everyone,
In Sweden (where I'm from) everyone gets a "half-term" holiday, called Sportlov. This is where whole families go up into the mountains to go skiing. The ski season lasts until April though, so although this is kind of sportlov it's also Påsklov, Easter holiday. You can see me here on some of the more difficult runs in the largest ski resort in Sweden - Åre. I do love to go skiing, makes me feel all fit and healthy!
Another adventure very very soon!
Hugs to all.

Leaning Tower of Sven

Pisa, Italy: Distance Travelled = 25,294 miles

Hello!
Back on the road again heading north from Canberra and I saw this Banana. I know that I'm small, which is why I'm called Mini-Sven, but this banana is absolutely huuuuge, I mean massive. I felt quite insignificant next to it. Wow, that's all I can say! Another update soon!
lots of love

Sweltering in Thailand

Posted 23rd April 2009 - Journey: 2003
Sattahip, Thailand: Distance Travelled = 30,940 miles

Hello everyone,
I've made it to Thailand and it is really really hot. This time of year it's above 30 degrees. I'm used to colder places and this is definitely not cold! I enjoyed riding on the elephant, but I'm not sure the lion liked me very much! Ah well, I'll be on way again soon. A shame really, there is the most fantastic beach here I've ever seen! Maybe I'll find somewhere nice back home with a nice beach somewhere!
More adventures soon.
lots of love
