This daily desktop calendar contains edited contents from Yucari Osada’s Scandinavian 365 Travel Diary column, one of the Weeksdays online articles.



Similar to the Weeksdays daily desktop calendar, these photographs were all taken with an iPhone. There are images of yummy things, cute things, and beautiful scenery, and they can all appear totally differently based on the perspective in which they’re captured. That’s the great thing about photography!



One of the Weeksdays team members is even going to use both the Weeksdays calendar and the Scandinavian calendar at home. These calendars have totally different feels to them, so having them both in one place sounds quite nice.

I was filled with both delight and surprise when someone on the Weeksdays team asked me if I would turn the Scandinavian 365 Travel Diary into a daily calendar.



I started by excitedly basing the contents on the year-long contents I’d uploaded for the column and rearranging them, but I eventually ended up replacing 2/3 of it with new content so users could experience the gradual changing of the seasons in Scandinavia.



I paid special attention to the color scheme for the calendar. I made the back of it yellow, so you can use the back of each page you pull off as a yellow memo sheet. The dates of Sundays and Japan’s national holidays are also written in yellow. That’s the main color for my website/shop SPOONFUL, and it also goes very well with the photographs of Scandinavia.



I’ve included credits for the locations pictured in the photographs, which include local shops, restaurants, churches, libraries, and more. So if you want to visit any of the places you see, I recommend storing the page in your passport after you pull it off. And speaking of, the pages are passport sized! I’d be delighted if someone keeps storing them in their passport and watches the book thicken.



In addition to photographs of the area, there are also some of local vintage items. You can find information about when, where, and who created it.



I’ve also included information about places I’d like people to visit and foods I’d like them to try once we’re able to travel overseas more normally. If you find favorite entries among these 365 calendar pages, please keep them warm until the day you can travel freely.
