While living in Sweden, I haven't had the opportunity to make many Thai friends, but Meaow stands out as one of the finest ones, always reliable and supportive. It feels great to be back in town meeting all familiar faces, even if only for a short period before moving to Spain.
Shoutout to @kaffeverket for the excellent coffee and cinnamon roll that made my day even better!
Att bo här i Sverige har jag inte så många thailändska vänner. Meaow, hon är en av de finaste jag vet och jag kan alltid lita på henne. Känns bra att vara tillbaka i stan för att se alla mina bekanta ansikten trots att det är bara en kort stund innan jag flyttar till Spanien nästa månad.
Jag lärde känna Pang och hennes bf, Leif, för ett par år sedan när jag var i Hat Yai, Thailand. Det hände bara att de var i Stockholm bara idag innan de resar till Visby. Det var trevligt att träffa er även om jag inte har haft mycket tid att verkligen visa dem runt Stockholm. Hoppas i alla fall att ni två har det fantastiskt i Visby (såklart ...)
A couple of years ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Pang and her boyfriend, Leif, during my visit to Hat Yai, Thailand. Today, luck was on our side as they happened to be in Stockholm before heading to Visby. Although I didn't have much time to give them a proper tour, it was truly wonderful to see them again. I'm sure you both will have an amazing time in Visby (of course you will...). Enjoy your adventures!

A big thanks to my bestie, Jantima Anantaworapot, for treating me to a lovely lunch in Trang. Hopefully, we'll have the chance to meet up in Sweden soon, babe! The food was fantastic, and I couldn't get enough of the "Koong Krob" – the Thai-Chinese style deep-fried shrimp was simply delightful.
The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and kind. Without a doubt, I'll be returning next time I find myself in Trang.

English Version
Swedes celebrate their National Day on 6 June in honour of two historical events: Gustav Vasa being elected king (6th June 1523) and the adoption of a new constitution (6th June 1809).
The history of Sweden’s National Day, all the way back to the 1500s. On June 6th 1523, Gustav Vasa was crowned king and subsequently liberated Sweden from the Kalmar Union, which at that time was comprised of Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. A few hundred years later on the 6th of June 1809, Sweden adopted a new constitution restoring political power to the parliament.
The idea of the national celebration came first from Artur Hazelius, who founded Skansen, the oldest open-air museum in Sweden. Artur first started celebrating on the 6th of June during the 90s.
It wasn’t until the dissolution of the union between Norway and Sweden in 1905, Sweden started to create their own flag as a result, that Swedes started calling the 6th of June the “Swedish Flag Day” in 1916.
Till this day, Skansen is the go-to for many Stockholmers and the Swedish Royal Family to celebrate June 6th. However it would take approximately 100 years for the Swedish parliament to recognise the day as an official holiday. In 2004, the parliament finally voted on the 6th of June to become the Swedish National holiday.
รู้ว่าการตัดเย็บไม่ใช่สิ่งที่เราชำนาญ เพราะแบรนด์แฟชั่นของแอน ANNE PK มีช่างตัดเย็บอยู่แล้ว ส่วนใหญ่เราจะทำแทบทุกอย่างในแบรนด์รวมไปถึงการทำงานด้าน designing และ pattern making ด้วย ยกเว้นการตัดเย็บ ANNE PK ยังเป็นแบรนด์เล็กๆ handmade ไม่ใช่ mass production
During my visit to Thailand, I took up the challenge of learning how to sew clothes, and to my dear friends' surprise, I offered to craft a suit and bridesmaid dresses for them. Although sewing isn't exactly my expertise, I couldn't resist trying my hand at it. My true passion lies in my own fashion brand, ANNE PK, where I specialise in designing and pattern making. In my role for ANNE PK, I handle everything except sewing, leaving that task to other skilled hands.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my friend Keng Suwanchartree for graciously wearing the outfit I made. I am also immensely thankful to my dear friend DearDear Promsawat. for appreciating the gift. As simple as it may seem, sometimes a heartfelt "Thank you" holds more value than any money. Your appreciation means the world to me.
It was a humbling experience that made me realize how fortunate I am to have a skilled tailor working for my own brand. Looking ahead, I aspire to master the art of tailoring myself in the near future.
By the way, get ready for something truly exciting with my new collection! Stay tuned for updates! 😊
Nä jag besökte Thailand började jag lära mig att sy kläder och jag hade erbjudit två av mina kära vänner att sy en kostym och brudtärna klänningar. Sömnad är inte riktigt my cup of tea. Jag har jobbat hård för mitt eget modemärke, ANNE PK, är jag specialiserad på design och mönstertillverkning. Mitt ansvar för ANNE PK är för det mesta utom att sy.
Jag skulle vilja tacka min vän Keng Suwanchartree för wearing the outfit. Not to mention, DearDear Promsawat.. Tackar ni två som uppskattar mina presenten till er. Enkelt some det låter, ibland betyder ordet "Tack" mer än pengar.
Det fick mig också att inse hur lycklig jag är som har en bra skräddare som jobbar för mig. Förhoppningsvis i en nära framtid skulle jag kunna behärska skräddardelen - sömnad. Något spännande med min nya kollektion kommer förresten snart! Håll utkik!!!!!
I guess I ended my day with this lovely Fox. I hope this year I will have whole summer just for sailing. It's such an amazing feeling to be out to the sea. Getting an amazingly tan. Plus I have the best instructor. Love it 👌❤️!!!!
