Burnout to Bliss | Cycling in Swedish countryside 🇸🇬🇸🇪 | Slow travel

Feeling burnt out ah? Come follow me, a Singaporean living in Sweden for 27 years, as I take you on a soul-recharging e-bike ride from Skelleftehamn to Skellefteå and back. We cycled 6 hours through forests, fjords, and fika spots – all from the doorstep of our Airbnb!

Cyckling can changed the way we travel, helped us deal with burnout, and now we want you to experience this kind of slow, soulful journey too.

💡 If you’re planning a slow adventure in #Skellefteå Sweden or just need a break from city stress, our Airbnb’s nearby cycling trail might be the perfect therapy.

📍Route: Skelleftehamn → Ursviken → Tuvan → Älvsbacka → Nordanå → Medlefors → Bonnstan → Dinner → Bergsbyn → Northvolt → Skelleftehamn

slow adventure in sweden or just need a break from the city stress our airbnb nearby cycling trail might be a perfect therapy for you you notice the moment you cycle into the forest something change did you notice the air suddenly turns sweet like it has been filtered by the pine tree themselves as you cycle through the forest it feels like something out of the fairy story book right the calm and clean air no sound of the traffic or pedestrian just freedom the air is so clean until i feel like my lung just got baptized every paddle forwards feels like sharings of weights of stress along the coast you notice some people swimming even fishing or just standing there quietly enjoying the breeze it’s a kind of quiet companionship you don’t get that in orchard road as we are cycling towards the city you will pass by this place called tuan cafe this cafe is run by the church the fica and the food which is quite simple just salad and maybe some pie they are delicious and easily affordable make sure you stop by for a coffee break [Music] when we arrive in the city there were kids running around in the playground and the parent is relaxing and you notice nobody is rushing i don’t know if you have noticed you notice there is not so much people on the street even it is in the evening where there’s lots of event going around in the city the young people usually come out in the late evenings in terms of safety as you can see the cycling tracks is very safe you just need to watch where you are cycling and slow down if you see people just to show some respect but please don’t go and say hi or talk to somebody because sweet they are not used to this [Music] usually there’s a lot of happening here during the summer sometimes you can see free concert or some competition or small events new dano which is here is a historical park where people likes to come here hang out cycle chitchat or maybe have a fica there’s also a historical restaurant here where they serve traditional swedish food this is a cozy cafe where i like to come here for just coffee and some cakes initially our plan was to patronize a historical cafe which is located on an island but then we realized they are not open yet for the season this cafe is popular with waffles on certain days and they have quite reasonable fica too so no choice have to continue with our path as as we cycle we come across this bridge with a beautiful waterfall even though it is an man-made waterfall i still feel like it looks really pretty don’t you think this place reminds me of singapore botanical garden except there is not many filipino picnicking on sunday here wow this is bone stance these old wooden houses are over 300 years old can you believe it and it’s still standing strong and this place during the autumns they have this uh saturday market where the local farmer can sell vegetables and their own produce if you like local produce organic food this is a place to be sometimes they have flea market too so if you are looking for vintage design items this is the place after all that emotional ride of course now it’s time for makan we went to eat dinner at this chinese restaurant run by a few china guy if you are not in for chinese food there are a lots of swedish restaurant in the city no choice even though i’m in the swedish air i still have an asian tummy still want to go for the asian dough after dinner it’s time to go home i felt the air was getting a little bit chilly so remember to bring on a little coat if you are going cycling for such a long hours because the evening can be a bit chilly while riding our way back through bearpin and north i got a little bit emotional this battery factory has recently got bankrupt we have lost a tremendous income by this bad news maybe this happened for a reasons and i will forever be grateful for those opportunities anyway our business has recently start to pick up again now i’m signing off as a singapore auntie in sweden ready to welcome you
