Welcome to Marie´s travel diary and blog. I love to travel and to write about smultronställen (Swedish for hidden gems). It´s nice and cool places, fab shops, interesting museums, luxury hotels and the best restaurants. I haven´t been everywhere yet, but it is on my list. This blog is my hobby, and is not written by a company.
