Hi again,

I just wanted to share another picutre with you. Here I am bird watching with Emelie and her Mamyvie (grandma :o). 

Cheers,

Tristan

This is Emelie and I. She took me for a ride on her ride-on. It was soooo much fun!!!

Hi everyone,

I have finally arrived, safe and sound, on the Gold Coast in Australia at the Stephens family. It was a bumpy, but very exciting ride and I'm still suffering from jet-lag.

I have already had a wonderful time cuddling with Emelie and I have been able to meet all her teddy friends: Miss Emu, Dino, Puppe Kanin, Hund, Nalle Puh, Kitty, Miss Piggy...and the list goes on.

I am going to stay for a little while in the land down-under, with my new friends. I will keep you posted about my little adventures on the Gold Coast.

Big hugs to you all,

Tristan

Hi everyone,

I have finally made it safe and sound to family Stephens on the Gold Coast, Australia. It was a bumpy, but very exciting ride and I'm still suffering from jet-lag.

I've already had some wonderful cuddles with Emelie and met a lot of her teddy friends - Miss Emu, Puppe Kanin, Teddy, Miss Piggy, Kitty, Hund...and the list goes on.

I will be staying a little while to enjoy the land down-under. I'll keep you posted on my adventures around Gold Goast.

Sending you lots of love,

Tristan

Hi all,

I've been staying in Nagu, in the Finnish archipelago, since June. Sorry I haven't kept in touch better. I've made three new best friends here, Junia 5y, Alfred 2y8m and Gustav 8m. Together we've done a lot of fun things. I've been playing, travelling by car and by boat in southern Finland, swimming in the sea (well, watching the children swim), visiting real horses,pigs and cows, riding bikes etc. with my friends.

However, it's now time for me to say 'goodbye' and continue my journey.

Love, Tristan

Tristan really liked Portland, Oregon. He liked it so much that he decided to stay for a whole month, but now he's leaving. Before he left he told us that he is very exicted about being on the road again. Bye bye Tristan, we really enoyed having you here, little 8 weeks old Stella will miss you!

 Tristan has also become great friends with our cats. Both Lipton and Tazo. Here you can see him snuggle together with Tazo.

Soon he will have to say goodbye though, since he will be going. His journey has to continue and he thinks he is ready now. We are all very happy to have had the opportunity to get to know Tristan. Ella will miss him, but she understands he has to move on and that he belongs to baby Isolde. Will be lots of fun to follow him on his future trip!

Tristan has made some new friends here. Our American bears have enjoyed the exotic company of Tristan. They have also showed him some American and New Yorky ways of having fun. Cheering for NY Rangers and then having a Starbucks moment. They were a little confused that Tristan called it "fika" but soon they did embrace the Swedish expression as well.

 One lovely spring day Tristan was tagging along with us on a walk to The Park - Central Park. Here he and Ella are on the Great Lawn.

 In the mornings Tristan has mostly spent time with Ella. Hanging out with her in the sofa and then Ella prepared breakfast. Apparently Tristan likes eggs and bacon!

 Dear Isolde,

Here is another picture from Tristans visit in Scranton. This is from one of our strolls in Nay Aug Park.

It was a little chilly that day so Erik and Tristan cuddled up in the stroller bassinet. And they fell a sleep!

I think Tristan felt a little like home then since we have the same kind of stroller as you do.

all the best,

Anki, Eriks mom

 Dear Isolde!

In March Tristan visited us in Scranton, PA. He was the first one to visit Erik after he came home from the hospital where he was born. We enjoyed having Tristan here, and many thanks for the cute romper he brought with him. We love the pattern of rainbows and it's so soft and nice!

We had some fun and cosy days together when Tristan was here. We went for walks in the neighbourhood. There is a really nice park close to where we live. It is called Nay Aug Park and it has a big tree house where you can look down on a waterfall. We also did some everyday stuff like going to the big grocery store Wegmans, and of course cuddled at home.  

It was fun having Tristan here. We're happy he wanted to come and visit with us. We really hope we get to meet each other in person some day too. Now Tristan has left us to continue his journey. We'll make sure we follow him online and hope that he has safe travels. He will have a lot of wonderful things to tell you when he comes back home to you!

hugs and kisses, and all the best to you and your parents,

Erik, Anki and Jonas

Isolde waved goodbye to Tristan and hoped she would see him again some day after he had travelled the world.
