The shortcut to a five-star Samuraj summer
Midsummer has passed and we are almost in July. Holiday peak season. Already???? How could spring run by so quickly? The one we filled with Easter celebrations, web projects, launch campaigns, ski trips, film shoots and lunches in the sun. No wonder it went by so quickly when we've had so much fun. Before we leave for vacation, we have taken the summer temp at the office. Please enjoy. And happy holidays to you. See you in August!


Miranda
Holidays mean plenty of time to chew through the pile of books on the bedside table, which one do you set your sights on first?
– This summer I continue with Lars Kepler and next up is Lazarus.
What does the perfect holiday breakfast consist of??
– Fresh strawberries and a hotel breakfast sandwich with extra everything.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Hela huset – Håkan Hellström & Veronica Maggio

Johanna
Where are we most likely to bump into you this summer?
– In the Luleå archipelago. Just discovered that it is the very finest thing we have.
What is incredibly good to put on the grill?
– Pointed cabbage with browned butter always goes home!

I samma bil – Bo Kaspers Orkester
Anneli
A heatwave is said to be sweeping across the country this summer. What's your best trick for keeping cool in hot moments?
– Take a swim and cool off with a cold beer or two. If that's not enough, I'll have to sleep in the basement among the mice.
If you could invite a celebrity to this summer's crayfish party, who would you invite?
– I invite two, the Surret duo Hanna and Nea, they seem like fun at a party. And then Hanna can teach me how to get a good schvuuung on the bangs. I try and try but never succeed.

Master Blaster (Jammin’) – Stevie Wonder

Rakel
What is the most overrated summer activity?
– Kubb (a Swedish game). You make enemies for life, everybody plays by different rules, and you get eaten by mosquitoes.
The summer drink of 2023 is….
– I'm a basic bitch and a sucker for Aperol Spritz. But! Replace the sparkling water with Sprite and it will be super sweet and delicious. And no, it will never go out of style.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Sunnanvind – Mares

Filip
Our resident fashion lion! Is it okay to wear shorts to a restaurant?
– It depends, are you sitting on an outdoor terrace, yes. If you are sitting inside, long trousers are required. We are not at a breakfast buffet at an all inclusive hotel.
Your three best holiday tips in Luleå?
1. The archipelago. Jump on the tour boat and go past Klubbviken, then jump off at whatever island catches your fancy.
2. Cycle and swim around all the bridges. Fill the bike basket with snacks, beer and sunscreen. Take at least three dips before returning home.
3. Taverna Gusto's outdoor seating. It’s like a small cauldron, completely windless and Luleå's best sunny location.

Summer Reign – Larry June & The Alchemist
Andreas
The forecast whispers of a sunny summer. Can you get sunburns in Sweden or does it just feel that way?
– Oh my god, let me tell you about how much sunburn you can get. I don't walk a single step without SPF 50.
Invite us to your best summer evening!!
– Pack a bunch of blankets, some poetry books and a glass of wine. Gather some friends and settle down on a jetty, or maybe a cliff. After that, you spend an entire evening reading poetry aloud and drinking wine. Actually much more fun than it sounds. And it already sounds pretty fun.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Dermot (see yourself in my eyes) – Fred again.., Dermot Kennedy

Ulf
If you are going to an event this summer, where do you go?
– Then you are going to Tornet on July 21! Hagalund's water tower (Stockholm). An event my friends and I arrange. Come, it's going to be fun, we call it an anti-party!
What kind of animal are you most likely to make friends with this summer?
– I'm already friends with the mice. It would be fun to add a deer companion or maybe a fox. But fingers crossed for the deer, they are so nice and already live everywhere around my house.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Sunshine – Atmosphere

Josefin
At which outdoor restaurant can you be found this summer?
– Agree with Filip, Taverna gusto is a summer favourite, but good old Bryggan is a classic. Check out one of the two and you'll find me for sure.
What is the summeriest thing you know?
– Summer for me is chafing from various sandals, strawberries and mosquito repellent. Mmm classic summer scent.

En vän med en bil – Håkan Hellström

Emma
You have just moved into your house. What is your big summer project?
– The house needs to be painted. Fingers crossed for reasonably sunny weather and zero rain so we'll be done at some point.
What's the worst thing you can put on an ice cream?
– Liquorice. Gross.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Waitin' On A Sunny Day - Bruce Springsteen

Emil
What game are you going to pick up after the family dinner to be sure to make some enemies?
– Monopoly, of course. I fool the hell out of them with my incredible sense of good business. The rest of the family doesn't stand a chance.
Our crossfit fan! Let’s say you’ve been ported from the gym, where are you staying then?
– Maybe on Ormberget if I get a feeling. But most likely I'll take a leave from the workouts and go to the summer cottage to build birdhouses.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Mera mål – Markoolio
Markus
What is your big summer project?
– My biggest project is preparing the bike for my cycling holiday on Gotland. Have some things to solve, like, where should the tent sit? And how do I know it's attached properly? Luckily I have all summer to figure it out.
The most unexpected good thing to top the ice cream with?
- Bacon, and it should be caramelized. It's really really cool.
Your summeriest song. Which it is?
Rytmen av ett regn – Millas Mirakel

Julia
You have to eat an ice cream every day all summer, which one do you choose?
– That’s super simple, obviously a mini-twister. Could eat it every day all year round.
Luleå's best beach spot is without a doubt…
– Niporna! Gets deep right away and you can take a break at Kolarens Café. Maybe they'll sell mini twisters this summer?
