Mediterranean Style

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;" class="teaser_image">Hello, dear friends. It's funny how I don't even move now when there is a tremor in Peru. When we first got here I used to rush outside until it was over. There was a tremor about 5 minutes ago, but I've got so used to them, I just go on with whatever I was doing (preparing this post in this case) while counting how long it lasts - 17 seconds this time. I've been told I have to have a backpack ready in case there is a major earthquake. Sounds scary. Hope I don't have to use it.<br /><br />Ok, so we are off to Spain today to visit a rustic home on the island of Majorca, overlooking the fields below and The Mediterranean Sea in the horizon. Not many photographs of the interiors, I'm afraid. These will have to do.<br /><div class="teaser_image"><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <a

The Guest Wing in Denmark

<div style="text-align: center;">A beautiful grey Sunday, here in Peru. Hope you are enjoying your Sunday too. And we are off to the North of Copenhagen to visit this former royal summer palace. A couple live in the guest wing now, and have preserved its original features.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/15.jpg" /><br />This bench is from the 1800s and was designed by German-Austrian Michael Thonet. The Danish Empire style table dates from the 1700s.<br /><span style="background-color: rgb(230, 236, 249);"><span class="image-zoom-wrapper" style="width: 440px;"><span class="imageCaption"></span></span></span><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/16.jpg" /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/17.jpg" /><br />The antique tea cups are used every day.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/27.jpg" /><br />On this window shade there is an image of the palace's main building as it was in the 1700s.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/8.jpg" /><br />Original 1700s pine floors.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.skonahem.com/Global/Skonahem/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/slottsliv_1/1.jpg" /><br />An antique shaving mirror stands on a small table in one of the halls.<br />A beautiful Sunday to you, my friends!<br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;"><a href="http://www.skonahem.com/inspiration/Inspirerandehem/slottsliv_1">Source</a></span><br /></div>

Short and Sweet

<div style="text-align: center;">Are you kidding me?? Where are the rest?! That's what I thought when I saw these three photographs.
