› 7 Days Until Bulgaria… And I’m Slightly Panicking
One week left, a chaotic brain, and a suitcase full of stress and excitement.
Porch talk ● 7 DAYS TIL I GO TO BULGARIA! Now that’s crazy!
I have been to three countries and I hate flying, every single time BUT honestly, I dislike being “stuck” in one place. I want to explore so unfortunately I have to go by plane 😵💫
The worst part about flying is takeoff and landing. Once I’m in the air, it’s mostly fear.
So I’m feeling stressed. My mind is all over. Packing, documents, medicines, etc. Do I have everything? Do I need to buy anything? Do I have everything? So yeah, my mind is pretty chaotic right now.
Still in this stage – I am excited! I get to explore a whole new country (okey not a whole country but a new location).
So right now, I’m at 70% / 30%
70% stressed and terrified (flights, time to change flight in Vienna etc) and 30% excited!
Honestly, I think the 70%/30% will be 0%/100% when I’m there and don’t need to worry about the flight but enjoy the vacation – just me, my camera going click click click, and a whole lot of memories to capture.But let’s go! I’m gonna panic over my suitcase and the packing now – as usual.

› A girl need a break
Sometimes you just need to have a girls date.. with your bestfriend and cousin.
Today, I felt down. I don’t know why, I just did. After dropping my son off at a friend’s place I met up with my partner in crime.
Went to the new store that has opened in the town – I normally love this store but meh, what a disappointment. Afterwards, we went to another part of the town to check out beds. After that, we went back into the town and had dinner and let me tell you guys, my stomach HATE ME after that.
Talking business plans, ideas, how to grow, and just laugh. I needed this moment. I needed a moment to forget about the reality for a bit.
OH I also went out of my comfort zone again ! I showed my tummy and booooyyyyy let me tell you all the dirty looks and laughs I got from people but hey, Im fat, its hot outside and I don’t give a fk (well I do but I try not to).
Short post but that’s pretty much it. Enjoy few photos I took today!.

› Can We Be Done With This Already?
Are you like me and get tired of stuff? Seeing or hearing the same things over and over again?
Here’s a short list of things I’m tired of.
Make sure to share your opinions and your own list in the comment section.
Not in chronological order:
● How some people still don’t understand how autism works
● Bullying and being nasty — it’s 2026, time to stop the bullying already
● TikTok — I know, it’s great for doomscrolling, but for me? No
● Instagram — is that even popular anymore?
● Influencers — no comments
● Racism
● Trump & Putin — no comments needed
● War — enough is enough

› Enough Adulting for Today
Enough adulting for today.
For the first time ever — in my whole life — I defrosted my freezer. Never needed to before, but now? Oh god, it was time.
Yes, I admit it, I have never done it before except on my chest freezer and due to the heat in Sweden right now, I felt so stressed. No, I’m not ashamed to admit this 😂We have something called “Röt Månad” which basically means that food and drinks go bad really fast.
So imagine me using a metal spatula, boiling hot water, three bath sheets and one hand towel trying to defrost everything as fast as possible.
Honestly, I wish I could say “enough adulting” but sadly I have a lot more to do before it’s time to go to sleep for the night. Fold laundry, clean up, make dinner, pack E’s bags, get him ready for sleep. Shower (again), pack my cabin bag and yeah 😵💫 so much.Wish me luck – I’m gonna need it.

› Bad Hotel Reviews Scared Me — I Changed Hotels Before Bulgaria
——————————————————————————
Thank God I trusted my gut when I was talking with a friend over on a communication app after he sent links on google maps. My gut and voices in my head (one of my demons 😂 lol! Just kidding) told me to google and check out the hotel I was gonna stay at. THANK GOD I DID!
——————————————————————————
——————————————————————————
I read the reviews and.. oh my. I have never been so scared of a location before. The second I read those reviews, my whole body just screamed NOPE!
● “Piss stains on the mattresses”
● Rude owner
● Filthy and piss stains everywhere
● Broken beds, doors that was unable to lock
● Not safe for anyone
Are some of the few reviews i read. I don’t wanna think of how awful it would have been.
I honestly got so scared and terrified I had to message M with screenshots and tell him how scared iam for that place I was gonna stay at for 12 nights. Like…Nope. Absolutely not. No way in hell that I’m staying there. I would rather sleep outside than sleep there when I am in Bulgaria.
Luckily he managed to fix a new hotel for me. I am so happy. I feel relieved.
I don’t have to be scared and worried about catching any diseases anymore – trust me… the photos people have taken on the other hotel i was supposed to stay at was .. no I cant even find the right words to describe it.
After he managed to fix the new hotel, I am excited again about the trip. I thought he wasnt able to cancel the booking of that terrifying hotel but he fixed it! 🙌🏼——————————————————————————
Me and my elephant — basically how I felt after reading those reviews.
