It was so nice to meet you this weekend, I hope you had a safe journey back! Thank you very much for linking to my blog!
Now to start packing for Bakåt:Framåt, huh? No rest for the wicked!
It was great to meet you as well. Sounds like you’re doing exactly like us…unpacking…looking to see what to take…and repacking. See you at Bakåt:Framåt!
It was lovely to meet you, Gina!
Would it be at all possible for you to email me the original version of the photo of you, me and Ina? Would love to post it on my blog. Thanks.

And I was so thrilled to finally meet you as well. I really love your blog & individual style! I was just sorry we didn’t get to talk longer. Perhaps when I come back for Tampere Vintage there will be time.
I love the last photo of you three!
