I spent last week with some of my close friends in Sandefjord, Norway. We got super lucky with the weather, and got the most out of the days, with good food, dips in the ocean, boating and kayaking. Hope you all enjoy summer, even tho a lot of us are back at work already. This summer went way too fast!

Love these summer days in Oslo, everyone gets so spontaneous and adventurous. Itโs easy to be social and people seem to really enjoy the good weather. My week started off a bit slow with home office work, from Wednesday early am to Thursday late night I worked on a shoot with a big team at a beautiful place just an hour away from Oslo, called Kleivstova. It was really long days, and super hot, especially because we were shooting winter clothes, with heavy boots and warm gear, but we all kept each other motivated and people were in such a good mood. If anyone visits Oslo and wanna see some beautiful landscape, close to the city, I recommend checking out this hotel. The food was great too, and the staff was super friendly. They made sure we had food at all times, even tho the vegan options waseโt the best.
The rest of the week has been packed with meetings and things to catch up on. Been going to the beach and boating after work hours for a swim, taking advantage of being a freelancer, and having the privilege to schedule my own days!
Saturday night I had some friends over for some drinks at my place, before we headed together to one of my old friendโs event at โโTaket paรฅ Steen og Strรธmโโ. Such good music and awesome vibes. So much fun catching up with old friends again, and as everything closes super early we decided to hang out at a friendโs place at Bygdรธy for an after-party. Stayed up all night and some people even went for a midnight swim. Thatโs really the best thing about Scandinavian summer, it never gets dark. Really mindfuck, as your brain never wants to go to sleep.
Wish you all a great week.

Yesterday we organized a baby shower for my best friend, I never had that much of responsibility with a baby shower before and I have to say I really enjoyed organizing it! So much fun to surprise someone who is expecting a baby, and already so emotional! We made it pretty simple, with everyone bringing different small tapas foods. Its that thought that matter, and doeseโt have to be super-duper fancy. Also so much more personal when everyone makes some small stuff. I obviously brought a cake, a chocolate raw food cake! It actually turned out really good! I will share the recipe later on, probably with a new IGTV on my Instagram. - Stay tuned!
She got super overwhelmed and surprised, and I felt like the shower was a great success! The balloon company got us covered with the most beautiful mix of baby blue balloons, even with my girlfriendโโs name on one of them โโ Emilieโs baby showerโโ. We also did this cute little game with everyone bringing baby pictures and Emilie guessing whoโs who. Just a fun idea, if you are planning on organizing a shower anytime soon.
I wish you all a great weekend. Iโm working from home these days in my new apartment and still working on furniture. I love that Oslo is heating up now, just in perfect time before the weekend!

Hoping everyone enjoys the sunny days, here in Oslo the summer has finally arrived. Feels amazing to walk in nature, wear fewer layers of clothes, and feel the sun on the skin again! Right now I am obsessed with denim, and love mixing and matching different denim looks together, feels very timeless, and hard to go wrong with denim in general! Easy to dress up or down, for every day or a chic โโgoing outโโ look.
I am still in between moving into my new apt and stressing with getting settled in, and working from home! The exciting news is that I got a new partner, โโGood for me ASโโ, and just started using their 100% vegan beta carotene gold! It is a supplement to help the skin to develop a deeper and longer-lasting tan. As I have been struggling quite a lot with the skin, with both pigmentation and acne I am excited to see the results this summer. I love that their product is natural and full of vitamin A, which is also helping on strengthening the skin. I always wear SPF 50 in my face, but with this natural way of help, I am sure I will be able to get some good results, even with Scandinavian summer weather! I will keep you posted on the results!
You get 40% off on your first order on www.Betakarotengold.no !
I wish you all a great rest of the week.

Hey everyone.
I hope everyone enjoys the long weekend, here in Norway, โโKristi himmelfartโโ, or Christian Ascension weekend is a typical weekend where people go away to their summer places or winter cabins. I remember this time of year last year in NYC people started going to the Hamptons. This year I am staying in Oslo and going absolutely nowhere, except exploring a bit in the woods. As I have bought a new apt in Oslo, it is a lot to get done these days with interior shopping, measuresing, and moving in general. Even tho it feels a bit exhausting, I am super pumped and overwhelmed about this new project. I feel truly blessed to be in Oslo, Norway. I feel so much safer here, then I did when I was stuck alone in LA. I am sending positive vibes and prayers to everyone who is handling this situation all alone, stay positive, and stay strong!
Right now, the apartment is all a big mess, but I can not wait to invite my friends over and show you guys a little tour as well.

Hey everyone.
I hope you and your families are safe during these difficult times. Today is my 27th day of self-quarantine. I Have never been isolated from the world for that many days all alone.
I love having my space, and spending time with myself, but itโs different when you are getting forced into isolation for such a long period of time, and especially with everything going on in the world right now. Iโm trying to trick my body to pretend this is not happening, putting on a fake smile and do things that make me feel better; throw on a cute outfit, do some makeup, facetime friends and family, watch funny series and read books. I find it really hard concentrating these days, so my nutrition studies are on hold until I find more of an inner strength back.
If you are alone right now like I am, and in a completely different time zone then most of your friends and family, donโt be too hard on yourself. Treat yourself like your own best friend. Take a hot shower, donโt count calories or feel bad because you ate too much last night, etc. These things dosenโt matter right now, what matters is that you and your family are safe and healthy. I will post some healthy recipes this week too, as cooking healthy easy meals at home is good therapy for me during these times, and I hope you will find some joy the cooking too.
I am avoiding all types of news at the moment, it makes me even more stressed and scared. Since I have not been feeling well and have been in direct contact with a person who tested positive for Covid19, Iโm obviously more concerned due to this situation. I have been sick multiple times away from home and been working with flu etc 100 times, but his time itโs different. It scares me that it is a deadly virus going on. The unknown scares me, the future scares me and beings far from my loved ones scares me. I guess I am not the only one, feeling scared, lonely and experiencing anxiety these days. Especially when you go to bed all alone with your own thoughts. It might sound nice, not to have a roommate to deal with right now, but believe me, you should appreciate that even tho your roommate probably annoys the shit out of you. I donโt think it is healthy being alone for such a long period of time. Without FaceTime, zoom and social media, I wouldeโt know what to do right now.
To everyone living alone during these difficult times, stay strong. You are not alone! Donโt be afraid to reach out to an old friend, no one wants you to go into a depression. The world feels like falling apart, but there is a lot of people out there that want to help and there is a lot of love. After this situation, I believe we will all see things with new eyes, with more gratitude and love than ever before. Maybe this is something a lot of us needed to open our eyes and realize how little we need, how much we actually have, and appreciate the true value of human connection.
We will get through this together. As soon as I feel ready to travel back to Europe, I will get on a flight back home. Stay safe, patient and calm at home everyone.
Be kind to one and other, reach out and spread love. Right now thatโs all we can do.
Best, Eline S.

Hey everyone.
Iโm starting to feel just a little lonely in my own company over here, even tho I am not bored yet. I always find something to do. Studies, FaceTiming friends, series, cooking, and writing. I really miss being social and hug and touch people. Yea, I know that sounds creepy, but Iโm a big cuddler with the people I love.
I have been experiencing syndromes for a while now, and I just got a call from a girlfriend I hang out with 9 days ago, telling me she just got tested for the coronavirus. She was recently in Europe, and hang out with two people who have tested positive, we have a bunch of the same syndromes, so if she gets a positive answer it might be a chance I have it too. I havenโt been feeling really sick, only been having light syndromes, but my breath is a lot heavier, and it scares me a bit since Iโm in Los Angeles by myself. I hope you are all feeling healthy, and that your families are safe.
I havenโt been moving for about a week now, because of the symptoms, I have been trying to stay in as much as possible, to avoid spreading in case I got the virus. I guess I am not the only person who has been emotional and bored eating way much, from just lying still all day.
I used to do this coffee every day a few summers ago for breakfast, and my mom has done it too, saying it was working for her to get to her goals. I donโt want this page to have a focus on weight loss, especially now when these things really donโt matter, when terrible things are happening in the world, even though I thought I might share this tips with you. Health obviously comes first, however, this coffee has great health benefits, so it might be worth a try!
The recipe is super easy, you only need 2, or 3 ingredients for your fat-burning morning coffee, and it literally takes 5 minutes to make it.
Using freshly ground coffee beans, brew 1 cup of coffee, using a French press, or just instant coffee.
Add 1 tablespoon (tbsp) of coconut oil or butter
add a little almond milk, or other milk (for more creaminess)
Many people think coffee is bad for you, but the truth is that drinking coffee in moderation has a range of health benefits and may reduce the risk of death from heart disease and several cancers. Not only is coffee full of antioxidants, but drinking coffee daily may also lower the likelihood of developing conditions, such as liver disease, Parkinsonโs disease, and type 2 diabetes. Coffee in the morning can improve mental focus and help a person to feel more awake and alert. This effect usually lasts for a maximum of a few hours.
The bulletproof coffee is a keto coffee, or in other words high fat low carb. Usually, our bodies convert carbohydrates into energy before using fat. If there are not enough carbohydrates available, then the body uses its fat stores as an alternative source of energy. When the body uses its fat reserves, it produces ketones. Meaning your body goes directly into a fat-burning mood.
However, doctors usually recommend following a low-carbohydrate diet for a short time only.
One of the reasons for drinking bulletproof coffee is to prevent hunger during the morning. Adding butter and oil to coffee may make a person feel less hungry than if they drank coffee alone. Everyone is different, but some people may still feel hungry during the morning if they have not eaten a meal for breakfast. Personally, I think everyone gets used to it after a few days, whenever you develop a new habit, it might be uncomfortable at first, but when your body get used to it, and you start seeing results itโs all worth it. Never hurts to give something a try.

Happy Sunday everyone. This weekend I have been helping my friend with some studies, as well as focusing on my own nutrition studies. Yesterday I went for a hike in the sunny weather with an old girlfriend from my agency here in LA and her sister. Excited for a new week and some exciting meetings coming up.

I hope you all had a great Valentineโs day this year. As my bf is in Minnesota, I spent V-day with friends this year. First at Nespresso house on Beverly Drive for an iced coffee with my homie Kenny, then later on dinner and drinks at the rooftop of Edition Hotel in West Hollywood. It was pretty magical sitting there under the stars, with the view over Los Angeles, with one of my best friends. Cheering for love and many more years to come of a great friendship. Iโm truly thankful for having some great friends over here in LA, good friendships mean everything.
My mom just got into town yesterday. Iโm super excited to hang out with her this week! Today Iโm taking her to one of the older, more traditional hotels in Beverly Hills with a girlfriend joining us for lunch.
Wish you all a good, positive week, wherever you are in the world.

Day 1.
The last week has been super busy. I decided to fly in a few days before Mats game to get settled in. I stayed with one of the Swedish wifeโs from Rangers as we become really close when Mats and I lived in NYC. It felt good to be able to spend some quality time with her while visiting NYC.
The first thing I do when landing in the city is to walk against Hudson River, all the way downtown to the battery park. Just to feel the pulse of the city.
The first night we hang out with some of the other girlfriends and wifeโs on rangers, really good seeing the girls again and catch up on all.
Day 2.
I had some shoots set up, as Iโm waiting for my visa to get confirmed I canโt work legally yet, but figured out itโs great with some new material for the book. Not sure how nice the pics will turn out tho, since I couldnโt sleep at all my first night, probably too excited to be back and see everyone. The third day I met up with some Swedish model friends who live in NYC, we did some vintage shopping at the Real Real, strolled around Soho and enjoyed the city. I had a late dinner with Mats family who also got into town to watch the game the next day.
Day 3.
I woke up and decided to go Rumble boxing. This was one of my favorite workouts in NYC and I have missed it. The gym feels more like a club, with neon lighting, loud music and even some pro athletes enjoy this workout. The workout goes on a bag, so you donโt box against anyone. After I had a lunch appointment with some of my American girlfriends at Soho House in the Meatpacking district. They serve the best food and also have a fireplace. So cozy and grateful for my friends to show up on a Monday on such short notice, we were in all 7 girls, and we all ordered the same. The kale salad with salmon.. so good!
After lunch I had to rush home and get ready for game night. I rushed over to my Swedish girlfriendโs place. We always used to go together to games, so she asked me if I wanted to sit with her during the game. It was pretty emotional when they played the video of Mats and all his highlights from his carrier in Rangers, ending with โthank you Zuccโ. I love how hockey brings people together, it truly is an amazing sport. So much love in Madison square garden that night even tho it ended with a loss for Wild. So happy I could be there and support him on a special day.
Day 4
I woke up and the sun was shining super bright. I remember last year in NYC was super cold, so I put on layers of layers with jackets and sweaters. Then I head out to meet with Matโs family. We walked around in Soho and ended up at MarieBelle, which is my favorite cafe in NYC. They are most known for their amazing hot chocolate. I always stock up in chocolate when visit this shop. Yep, I got overweight just from chocolate .. we sat down on the cute little cocoa bar and enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate. When everything else is so busy in this area, MarieBelle is the perfect escape to get some rest in between sightseeing.
At night I was so dead, was supposed to go to the New Jersey game that night, but had a meeting at 5 went to bed already at 8 and passed out. NYC can be pretty overwhelming when you're not grown up there, at least for me. even tho I lived there for almost 2 years I never really got use to it.
Day 5.
My last day in the city I had lunch with Mats family at one of Matโs favorite restaurants, Serafina. Since his mom is part Italiens he loves Italiens food, so we used to go there a lot when we lived in NYC. Its a super casual likable restaurant with classic Italien food. After I did some errands and ofc picked up candy from Matsโ favorite Bon Bon, Swedish candy shop. 1 kg candy, no biggie!. I literally got 2 kg overweight because of the chocolate I bought at Mariebelle and that candy.
Since Thanksgiving was coming up the next day some of my friends there had organized a Friendsgiving at Edition hotel Times Square my last night. The restaurant in the hotel is named โTerraceโ and is a Michelin star restaurant. And I have to say, the food was bomb. I ordered the roasted cauliflower as well as the vegan Bolognese. I am actually celebrating my 3 meat-free weeks and I have to say itโs going pretty well. The meat-free bolognese honestly tasted really good. I asked some of my meat-eating friends to try it out, and they said it tasted bomb too. I really want that recipe.
Day 6.
I woke up, packed my stuff and headed to the airport. Excited to see Mats and celebrate Thanksgiving with one of the families from the Wild and their kiddos. Being meat-free on Thanksgiving can be interesting tho, I hate being that difficult picky person. Letโs see how that goes. Wish me luck!
I hope u all had a great weekend so far and happy late Thanksgiving everyone!
Best, Eline S.

Fancy brunch - God save the food
This if one of the fancier and more pricy brunch places in Milan. They have 3 different locations around in Milan and I do recommend the book your brunch table in advance as this place usually is full. The food was great, and the portions were in a good size too. I would love to go back here in the future for sure.
The big question is where to eat healthy in Milano, the city of pizza and pasta. A few friends have asked me for healthy recommendations. Personally, I donโt come to Italy to be healthy or on a diet, but there are a few healthy spots I can recommend that have really healthy options for those who prefer that.
Wegamama - More like a sushi place with tons of healthy options and good bowls.
Juice bar cafe (Duomo) - colorful bowls, juices etc, vegans options too.
Temakinho - One of Milan's new hotspots. This is a super fancy sushi place with amazing bowls, as well as rolls. The interior inside is pink and tropic. Cool spot to check out, very close to Corso Como/ Garibaldi.
California Bakery - They are located with multiple locations around Milan. They serve breakfast, brunch, and lunch with a Californian inspiration.
Rosa & Co
Are you a fan of poke bowls, you better check out this cute spot. The interior from the doorstep to the ceiling is all pink and they serve great drinks too.
\They are located in Corso Giuseppe, Garibaldi.
Starbucks Reserve - Great coffee
For the coffee lovers, I do recommend checking out one of the Starbucks reserve cafes in Milan. Starbucks Reserve is an upscale version of the normal Starbucks. They recently opened one in NYC too, in the Meatpacking district, right next to our old place. Its always packed there, probably since its the only one in NYC.
Their coffee is great and their pastries too. Perfect to enjoy a little coffee in-between sightseeing. We went back 3 times during our stay, much better than normal Starbucks coffee.
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II
Reklame. Wearing Revolve - Top - LPA - Boots - Stuart Weitzmann - Skirt - Zara - Hair chips - Accessorize
Italyโs oldest active shopping mall. The galleria is always packed with tourists. For fewer people, I suggest to go earlier in the morning and not at the weekend.
The galleria also has restaurants, so for those who just want to people-watch and have a snack that is also an option. We found a cute ice cream place on one of the corners inside and just walked around for a little.
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II
Porta Genova
Porta Genova is like Brooklyn in NYC or Grunerlokka in Oslo. The area has become super popular in the last 5 years, a lot of students, artists etc live here.
The famous Navigli canal is located in the heart of porta Genova surrounded by cafes and restaurants. No matter what time of year, there is always a great vibe in this area, especially around aperitivo hours, when the Italiens get together after work to have their daily glass of wine.
Navigli canal
Tenoha Milano
A lot of people would probably think its weird to eat Asian fusion in the city of pasta and pizza. But after several days with a full carb diet, we felt like eating a lighter meal. Tenoha is a newer Asian fusion restaurant located in Porta Genova, really close to the subway station. We combined the restaurant visit with sightseeing and shopping in Porta Genova. Both food and service were good. We had warm bowls with seafood and noodles, delish!

Papilla
Last but not least: Papilla just opened in Porta Genova, and recently got rated to Milanโs new nr one pizza. The spot is super cute and created by an italien family. Everything is brand new inside. Those who know me well, know I donโt eat pizza really often. This time it was defiantly worth it. Super thin, crispy crust with soft mozzarella cheese and salty ham. Yep, Italiens know how to make their pizza right!
Hope you all had a great week and got inspired to try something new if you are planning on visiting Milan. You can find the guide part 1 under Travel.
All best, Eline S.
My last days in Oslo have been pretty hectic. I always feel like I have things under control until I realize I am leaving in less than 24 hours. I completely forgot I had to reply for the Esta, since I had an American visa the last 3 years I didnโt really think about it. I replied for my Esta less than 24 hours ago, and it normally takes 72 hours to get it confirmed. Hopefully I get it in time before my flight, which takes off in an hour. Fingers crossed!
As we speak I'm sitting in the lounge with a huge cup of coffee, waiting to board on my flight to Minnesota!
I only slept for a few hours tonight, as I was packing and trying different outfits to figure out what to wear for tomorrow's, or actually today team dinner (with the time difference). I will probably go straight from the airport to the dinner, so hopefully, I will get some rest on the plane.
I'm super excited to see Mats again and explore a new city with new people! Always sad to leave Norway, but since I am waiting for my next O1 visa, I have to go back to Norway soon for the interview at the American embassy. I will try to update from Minnesota, but will probably be super busy first few weeks with settling in and getting to know a new city and how everything works over there. ts time to get pushed out of the comfort zone again. Its all so new, and I feel nervous and excited at the same time!
Wish you all a great and lazy Sunday. I hope you sleep long and get some rest before kicking off a new week tomorrow.

Falling in love with the Countryside of Norway, after my little exploring in Sรธrkedalen in Oslo last weekend I had to go back. I used to spend so much time there as a kid with my family, we used to go horseback riding and watch the animals, it all brings back great memories in me.
The old farm ยจBogstad Gรฅrdยจ has this amazing cute cafe inside the house, as well as a museum where you can see how they used to live more than 200 years ago. Perfect for an old soul like me, haha. The big farm is facing a huge garden and a lake. I recommend visiting this beautiful place if you want to see and explore something different in Oslo, perfect for families with kids too.
Tomorrow it is Friday already!
I have been having a hectic week so canโt wait for the weekend to start and spend some time with my friends tomorrow.

I hope you all had a great weekend. I spent my weekend catching up with some friends and visited a cute old farm with my mom called Bogstad Gรฅrd. That's the beauty of Oslo, It is city life, but you are also close to both the sea and the countryside. On Bogstad gรฅrd they have cows, pigs, etc. So a lot of families visit this place over the weekend.
Today (Sunday) I had a small sale at home with some friends. I realized I have way too much stuff that I never get to use. I had a great time organizing my stuff and helping my friends with sizes. I got so much good feedback on what a good thing it is to buy and sell second hand, feel free to go follow me on @tise (Eline Syrdalen) where I will keep updating with new pieces.

We have been exploring South Norway and Lyngรธr Island this weekend. Kinda sad that Norwegian summer is coming to an end already. We had a morning dip this morning and the ocean is already getting cooler.
Lyngรธr Island is one of my favorite islands. The island used to be a stop for the sailors, and the old sail maker house is now a restaurant. They are serving pizzas, and fresh Norwegian sea food! Really recommend to visit this place next summer. Its season based, so the restaurant is only open during the summer months.
For those who are interested in exploring Lyngรธr in Norway, I already wrote a mini guide under ยจTravel.
Hope you all had an amazing weekend!

I can't get enough of Norway this summer. It feels like I appreciate Norway another way after living in a noisy city like NYC, It is a huge difference.
Some of my Norwegian friends living in NYC visiting Norway gets bored after a few days. They think it is too quiet and boring. I truly enjoy the quietness, waking up to the sound of the waves and not waking up by cars and ambulances feels relaxing. I really feel grateful for all my traveling, but there is no place like home.
My American friends say that I should be an ambassador for Norway, maybe cause I brag a bit too much about how amazing nature is here. Anyway, it seems like my bragging made many people I know curious, this summer a bunch of my friends from Florida visited Norway and went hiking in Lofoten! They had an amazing time. A few of them texted me after that they wanna move here!
Thats probably one of the good things about social media, people get to share amazing nature experiences there. Norway got so many hidden pearls and places people wouldn't know of without that one Instagram account they follow from Norway that makes them wanna go there and explore.
I hope you all have a good week. I am super excited to spend the weekend with my two girlfriends in Kragerรธ. I really donโt want this summer to end!

Most people would probably not believe me at first, but I love spending time alone, in nature, getting dirty and sweaty. Preferably not shower in a few days and just swim in the ocean. This makes me feel connected, alive and back to my roots. I appreciate home more then I have ever done before. Maybe gratitude comes with age, or just the fact that being able to miss things you might take for granted, make you more grateful in general. For me spending time in nature is the best way to connect and charge up my batteries.
I am feeling energized after spending some time in South Norway again.
Hope you all have a lovely summer and take some time to do the things you love!
All best, Eline S.
