…history will be made! Metallica’s one of my absolute favourite rock bands and they’re coming to town for a concert – apparently first time they visit Beijing!Last time I saw them live was at Stockholm Stadium in 1993..! (Yes, do please start your age guessing game… 😉) Ooh, Lars Ulrich.. I had such a crush on him in the 90’s. Him and Slash. What can I say, must have had a thing for men who can handle an instrument like they can..? 😂Or maybe it was the bad boy hair..? I don’t know.

Anyway, clock is ticking & time is truly flying. We are closing up our first 6-months in Beijing. Crazy! And our first Christmas.. And since my daughter has seen that the Mothership (IKEA) has started selling Christmas stuff, that’s where she wants to spend her day off school at. I’ve completely ruined her I think… no 7-year old should have IKEA as their dream outing. Although I have a sneaking feeling she’s after the ice-cream at the end of the line… and the food shop just before exiting. Mom however.. well that’s another story. 😉

So yes, my half day off work will be spent with the family at IKEA. I am Swedish after all. 

Love from Beijing ❤️
