The post Swedish Student Left Everything Behind to Live Like Her Ancestors appeared first on PlayJunkie.
]]>She left her apartment, quit school and moved to Grundtjärn, a tiny village with only ten inhabitants, 100 miles away from her hometown, She wanted to get in touch with nature, and live a simpler life.
It wasn’t simple at first. Her house was old, the village was far away from anything. She had to figure out how to live without all the modern comforts the city had to offer. The long cold winters, the isolation and the maintenance of the house made the entire experience much less enchanting than she had imagined it.
But with time, she got used to the different pace of her new life, and finally found in nature what she was missing in the city – inspiration. She started making art and sharing her life with others on social media. Finally, she found her calling.
Today, Jonna is still living in the same remote village and spending her time making art and living a more traditional life. She shares her experiences with over 1 million subscribers on YouTube, and finally feels connected – to nature, and to others.

]]>First of all, the store is located in the city, unlike their typical stores that are built further away. This is done in an attempt to attract customers to go to the store without a car, so it doesn’t even have parking spaces. Instead, it focuses on using public transport and bikes, as well as walking. How do you get the goods you purchase then? You can simply get them delivered.
IKEA Westbahnhof will set new standards for furniture and home decor shopping. You will be able to see their complete offer across the seven floors, and there’s even going to be a room for inspiration and chilling. The building will come with green facades decorated with plants and it will have a roof terrace open to the public.
We really love the innovative design the Swedish company is applying here. The vision for the store is that it’s more of a meeting place where you can enjoy beautiful interiors with friends and take a break at the cafe, with an opportunity to see the products you like in person, which you can’t do online.

Champagne is white, sparkling wine produced in the Champagne region of France, made under very strict second fermentation wine rules.
A strong brandy made out of plumps, grapes or herbs, this is a must-have when visiting any country in Eastern Europe. As it’s very strong, you should drink it with caution, and accompanied by some local delicacy.
