Period Home in Haslemere

Hello, my dear friends! It's so nice to be back with you!

We had a wonderful week in Washington DC. We stayed in Georgetown, which I love with its lovely little houses and antique shops. We did get around quite a bit visiting museums and well, doing what every tourist does. We had planned to go up to New York for a couple of days but that fell through as my husband was tied down with work. I'm sorry I wasn't able to post while I was there, so many things to do, so much to see. I'm sure you understand! And I will be catching up with answering all your e-mails and comments, as well as visiting your blogs as soon as possible!

Today's house was built in 1435 and is located in Haslemere, in Surrey, England. Oliver Cromwell's soldiers stayed here during the English Civil War. In 1912 it was divided into two separate houses but was joined together 50 years later. Now it belongs to Annie and Nicholas Jackson who have transformed it into their dream home.

Tour time once again my friends!

Gustavian Style in Sweden

Good morning, my friends! My husband and I are leaving for the USA tonight. I'll be away until next Sunday. I don't think I'll be able to post during my trip. I promise I will try.

This house in northern Sweden, built 150 years ago had been empty for almost 40 years because 15 cousins could not agree what to do with it. Fortunately they finally sold it and this is what it looks like now.

I will miss you, my friends. I need to know that you will miss me a little bit, too.♥

Restored Home in Sweden

This house is located in Gothenburg, the second largest city in Sweden. It was built in 1926 and was recently renovated. The outside looks like it was taken from a fairy tale. A gingerbread man might hop out in any minute.
