Rosie is the language specialist and excursion enthusiast who traded the south coast of England for Jönköping’s lakes, forests and unexpected everyday adventures. Here, she keeps finding new places to fall in love with — from peaceful morning swims at Västersjön to evenings when the girls’ group tries out yet another new restaurant. Join her as she discovers the city with the same curious eyes, every single day.

About me:

I’m a language specialist and travel enthusiast originally from the sunny south coast of England, but I now call Jönköping my home. Even though I recently celebrated seven years as a Jönköping resident, I still find myself pleasantly surprised by life here.

People often say I have something of a black belt in day trips and everyday adventures. Whether it’s my family testing their way through all the swimming spots in the municipality, or the girls’ group trying out the latest restaurant, curiosity is what drives me — and my goal is always to discover Jönköping with fresh eyes.
