Today I am in Gothenburg in Sweden.
So I am here in Gothenburg.
I was thinking that we could go shopping.
Let's go.
The first place we are going to visit is a secondhand clothing store.
I need to check the name.
Hang on.
It is called Humana second hand and this is where we are going first.
It is right in the center of town and it's about 14 minutes walk away.
I love walking around Gothenburg because it is so beautiful, it is so peaceful and the architecture is really interesting.
So Look at these buildings, for example.
How gorgeous.
It's like green, like a proper, really ornate building.
It has lots of detail.
I'm not really shopping for something in particular.
Like sometimes you go shopping and you know that you want to buy jeans or you want to buy a new shirt, for example.
I have nothing in particular I want to buy.
I'm just browsing like I'm just going to to look.
We also call this in english uh, hang on, i need to cross the road okay um, if you go shopping just to to look, We call this window shopping.
You're shopping by just looking in the windows of the shops.
So yeah, that's my plan for this afternoon, for this Friday afternoon.
Thank you very much.
On the way to the vintage shop, I got sidetracked.
So sidetracked basically just means distracted.
I got distracted by this amazing shop that was so fashionable and so trendy, but it was full of designer, designer items which i don't have the budget for today.
It's too expensive today.
But we're off to the vintage place now.
It's just around the corner.
I'm just leaving humanas.
It was cute um, nothing really like that was nothing my style, if you know what i mean.
It was very colorful, y2k like 2000s kind of kind of style which i think nowadays i'm wearing more black black, white and brown.
I'm gonna try another shop.
There is another one next door, So the first thing I'm trying on is this like little red top.
I think it's super cute.
And I also have these like, wait, I also have these baggy jean shorts.
I have these baggy jean shorts which I'm gonna try on as well.
I think the shorts are cool but not for me.
It's not for me.
Thank you.
We just went to this super cute like English bookstore and they had blind dates with a book.
So a blind date is where you go on a date without knowing who you are going to meet.
You get like set up, we'd say you get set up. by your friends.
Basically, this book was wrapped up and I don't really know what it's about, except for some kind of description on the wrapping.
I'm not going to open it yet because there are still some things I want to do.
But I think the plan now is to get some boba tea.
So let's go and grab some boba tea.
Cute.
We could do like, wait. we are now sat by the river and we've bought some boba tea so i got a brown sugar milk and my boyfriend who my boyfriend came to meet me in in town he met me at the bookshop but he got a taro a taro la boba tea oh he got a taro latte which is purple it's quite cool so we we are going to try those now i've mixed it it's time for first sip Oh my god, it's really good.
We are out for dinner.
We went for a drink and now we are in Actually, the same Thai restaurant that we visited last time in my last video exploring I think it was the Swedish archipelago.
The food here is amazing.
It's called Moon Thai in Gothenburg.
Plan is now have some dinner and the day will continue tomorrow.
I'm so ready to get roasted.
You know, the first time i saw chopsticks.
I don't think i feel like this is less hot than last time.
Good morning.
I have my coffee, my iced coffee.
Yesterday, I did not film too much when we were getting the boba tea.
There was lots of music, lots of music on the bank and lots of people around.
It was a very sunny friday evening, so i think lots of people were enjoying enjoying being by the river.
I need to get ready.
I need to.
I actually i have just woken up, so i need to brush my hair, i need to brush my teeth, I need to drink my coffee.
Like there is so much that needs to happen.
I wanted to do a haul for you.
So a haul is basically where I show you everything that I bought yesterday.
I'm going to drink as well.
I have an elderflower squash, I think.
This is like an elderflower pressay, which in the UK, a pressay we often call a squash.
So I have a squash.
I ended up buying a few more things off camera yesterday.
We ended up going to Sephora, which is a really, really popular makeup shop.
I think it's an American brand.
I have three things here and I want to give you the haul, starting with the first thing that I bought, which is The book.
This was the blind date with a book and this is from a secondhand bookstore.
All of these books have been owned by somebody else and then resold.
And this is my blind date with a book.
The only thing I know about this is that One Day changes everything.
It's about post-World War One society and class.
And it's a coming of age story.
Coming of age stories are about people who are growing up.
And that is the only thing that I know.
I paid 75 crowns for this, which In British pounds, it's like a fiver.
It's like five quid or something.
Let's open it and see what book it is.
Ooh.
Okay, I can't show you the whole cover, but this is the book.
Oh, wow.
It's called Mothering Sunday.
It's a romance by Graham Smith. who is a winner of the Booker Prize.
The Booker Prize is a really, really popular, well, it's a really prestigious award.
A really prestigious award means like a very, very important, well-respected award.
It's also, it's quite a slim book.
It's not very thick.
It's quite slim.
So only 149 pages.
And the font, the size of the letters is quite big.
It has quite big font.
So exciting.
So the next thing I bought was from Sephora.
If anybody here has watched my makeup routine video, my makeup routine is quite simple.
I don't do very much, but I love makeup and I love watching people who are good at makeup do makeup.
I wanted to try some new products and kind of change my makeup routine.
So I wanted to buy a new foundation.
And my sister is a makeup artist and she recommended the brand Charlotte Tilbury to me, which is quite an expensive brand.
But if she thinks it's good, I'm going to get it.
She is an expert after all.
And I ended up buying this.
This is the Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint Hydrating Foundation Stick in the shade 15, which is literally the palest one that they have.
This is the foundation that I bought.
It comes in this tube like this.
It's like a stick like this, and if I put some on my hand you can see it blends in really well.
The guy who helped me choose this product he was so nice um, and we were chatting, and when i bought this he gave me a freebie, which maybe he does that for for everyone, but He gave me a little lipstick sample.
And what is this?
This is the Matte Revolution long-lasting lipstick.
I don't know what the color.
Ay, fuck.
Okay, of this teeny little lipstick.
It's so cute.
The final thing that I bought was from Weekday.
Now, I know this bag is absolutely massive.
I did not buy loads of things from weekday.
So I was shopping with my boyfriend and he bought clothes.
I only bought one thing, but he bought clothes, which is why they gave us the big bag.
But what I did buy were these earrings.
I bought these silver earrings. love jewellery.
So I love earrings.
I love necklaces.
I love rings, but I lose them.
I lose them all the time.
So I really wanted another pair of earrings and these ones.
I love them.
So I bought these as well.
How do I show you this lady?
Okay, so this is everything that I bought today.
Hopefully that was an interesting video for you.
I know it was a little bit chaotic, but hopefully, hopefully you enjoyed.
Yeah, but now I need to pack my suitcase because i go back to the uk tomorrow.
I'm gonna go and do and do that, but hopefully you enjoyed this video today.
Thank you so so much for watching and i will see you in the next one bye.
