I had a taste of winter in Taranto, and when I came back it felt so much warmer in the same clothes, even if the thermometer was twenty degrees lower...

Scandinavian winter, Mediterranean spring, that would the way to live.

hmm... Autumn in a country where it drops below zero at night and has a lot of leaved forest "blad skog".
Autumn will be beautiful with all the coulours of the leaves.
Summer. Well Swedish summer is amazing if it doesn't rain. And if it does rain, I sould spend my summer in the Australian rain forest. Summer is winter there so it will be about +25 and nice tropical rains with thunder and lightning in the middle of the day.
Beautiful! xxx
