On a quiet Tuesday morning in late June, you crack open the kitchen window at Gårdsvägen 2 and catch the faint salt smell rolling in off the Kattegat. The robotic mower is already doing its rounds across the grass. You've got nowhere to be until you feel like it. That's the whole point. Skummeslövsstrand sits on the Halland coast of southwestern Sweden, roughly halfway between Halmstad and Båstad — two towns that between them cover every practical need you'll ever have, from IKEA runs to Michelin-starred dinners. But the strand itself is a different pace entirely. A tight-knit summer community that swells with Swedish families every July, then exhales into a quieter, genuinely peaceful neighbourhood the rest of the year. The kind of place where you recognise faces at the local pizzeria on Strandvägen before the end of your first week. The house on Gårdsvägen dates to 1957 and carries just enough of that era — the compact, considered proportions of post-war Swedish construction — without feeling dated. It's been properly updated: new bathroom, fresh interior surfaces throughout, and a modern heat pump installed that handles both heating and cooling efficiently. This isn't a project property. You can arrive with luggage and start living. The winterisation work done here means the house holds warmth through a February coastal storm without fuss, which matters if you're thinking about long weekends in the off-season or using it as a genuine second home across all four seasons. Sixty square metres sounds modest on paper, and it is — but the layout earns every centimetre. The living area and kitchen work as a single open space, and the two bedrooms sit quietly toward the back. Large windows pull in the Swedish summer light ... click here to read more

Imagine waking up on a Saturday morning in September, the smell of pine drifting in through the bedroom window, the surface of Bullaresjön completely still. You pull on a sweater, put coffee on, and stand at the kitchen window watching the mist lift off the water. That's not a fantasy—that's a Tuesday here at Klageröd 5, in one of Bohuslän's quieter, less tourist-trampled corners. Bullaren sits in Tanums kommun, about 20 kilometers inland from the dramatic granite coastline of the Swedish west coast. If you know the area, you already know why people keep coming back. If you don't, here's the short version: it's the kind of place where your phone starts feeling irrelevant by mid-afternoon. The house itself is a single-story 78-square-meter property in solid condition—renovated, clean, and genuinely move-in ready. Two bedrooms, one well-fitted bathroom with a proper shower, and an open-plan living and dining area built around a wood-burning fireplace. That fireplace isn't decorative. Come November, when the temperature drops and the lake turns gunmetal grey, it's the center of the whole house. Evenings are spent there. Long weekends are organized around it. There's a reason Swedish interior culture puts such stock in the concept of eldstad—a real fire changes the character of a room entirely. The kitchen has been updated without losing the practical, unfussy character that Swedish country homes do so well. Enough counter space to actually cook a proper meal—and you will, because the local food culture here is built around doing exactly that. The village store in nearby Östad stocks local honey, smoked meats, and seasonal produce. In summer, the roadside stands along Route 163 sell strawberries and new potatoes by the ki ... click here to read more

Picture a Saturday morning in late June. The Swedish sun has been up since four, and by the time you pull on your jacket and step onto the wrap-around terrace with a mug of coffee, the birch forest at the edge of the garden is already doing that thing it does in Södermanland summers — throwing long gold light through the leaves while the air smells faintly of pine resin and damp earth. Lake Långhalsen is a four-minute walk down the path. Nobody else is awake yet. This is Utterspåret 11. It's a compact, honest house — 57 square meters built in 1979, maintained with genuine care, and set on a 1,620 square meter plot that gives you the kind of breathing room that's increasingly hard to find at this price point in Sweden. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen that works, and a living room anchored by a wood-burning stove that you'll use far more than you expect once October settles over Nyköping and the lake mist starts rolling in each morning. The stove isn't decorative. Come winter, it's the heart of the house. The terrace wraps the exterior and has both open and covered sections — a deliberate design that Swedes know well. You want sun in May when the temperature is still erratic. You want shade in July when it isn't. You want cover in August when the afternoon rain passes through. The terrace handles all of it, and it's large enough for a proper outdoor table, a couple of sun loungers, and whatever outdoor project you get absorbed in over a long weekend. The plot itself borders forest on one side, with no immediate neighbours on that flank. The garden is flat, open, and generous — room for a vegetable patch, a trampoline, a fire pit, a hammock between the birches. The side building currently runs as a small workshop a ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Saturday morning in late September, the birch trees along Kantarellvägen have gone full gold, and you're sitting on a wide timber terrace with a mug of coffee watching mist lift off Nedingen lake. No traffic noise. Just the faint knock of a rowboat against a dock somewhere down the hill, and the occasional rustle of something moving through the undergrowth at the edge of your 1,958-square-meter garden. This is the rhythm of life at Fornbo Kantarellvägen 58 — and it's about 100 kilometers from Stockholm's Centralen station. The house sits on a peninsula that juts into Nedingen, one of the cleaner and quieter lakes in Södermanland, within the well-established Fornbo recreational community. It was built in 1980 and has been kept in genuinely good condition — this isn't a project property requiring gut renovation before you can enjoy a single weekend. The structure is solid, the winterization means you can use it from January ice to December snow, and municipal water and sewage connections spare you the headaches that come with private wells and septic systems on older Swedish holiday properties. Move in, turn the key, light the fire. That fireplace deserves a moment. The living room has large windows that face toward the water, and on evenings when the temperature drops, the fireplace does real work — not decorative work, but actual warmth-producing work that makes the room feel like somewhere you'd genuinely want to spend three hours after a day of hiking. The living area flows naturally, 65 square meters used efficiently without feeling cramped, and the kitchen is practical and well-equipped for the kind of cooking that happens at a lake house: big pots of elk stew, fresh-caught perch fried in butte ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the smell of warm pine resin. Not the synthetic kind you find in a candle — the real thing, rising from the forest floor as the sun climbs over the eastern gable of this 1969 house in Havängs Sommarby. The birds are already going. Somewhere down the lane, a bicycle bell rings once and fades. This is what summer sounds like in Österlen. Havängsvägen 6 sits on a freehold plot of 1,289 square meters in one of the genuinely rare corners of Swedish coastal property — Havängs Sommarby, a small community tucked between Kivik and Brösarp on the Skåne coast. Freehold plots in this particular village are uncommon. Most of the surrounding vacation properties sit on leasehold land, which makes this one a different proposition entirely for buyers who want clean, uncomplicated ownership. The same family held it for over fifty years. That kind of tenure tells you something about a place. The house runs to 79 square meters across one and a half floors, sensibly arranged with two bedrooms on the ground level, both catching morning light through south- and east-facing windows. The open living room pulls you in with original wooden floors and a proper fireplace — the kind that makes an October weekend here feel genuinely cosy rather than just possible. There's something quietly satisfying about a house that still has its original bones intact. The spiral staircase leads up to a third bedroom tucked into the eastern gable, and beyond that, an attic space with real potential for conversion if the family grows or the guest list expands. The kitchen is compact but works well — room for a small table, good light, the kind of setup where breakfast happens unhurriedly and nobody ... click here to read more

Early morning in Dalsland, the mist still sitting on Östebosjön, and you're already down at the private jetty with a coffee in hand. The rowboat knocks gently against the wood. A heron lifts off from the reeds across the water. This is what you came for — and at Ryr Stommen 6, it's yours every single day you choose to be here. Köpmannebro sits in the heart of Dalsland, a corner of western Sweden that serious nature lovers have known about for decades but that somehow stays off the radar of the crowds. The Dalsland Canal — one of Scandinavia's most celebrated inland waterways, stretching more than 250 kilometres through a chain of interconnected lakes — runs right through this landscape. Östebosjön is part of that system. From the garden at Ryr Stommen 6, you look directly out over it. The house itself was built in 1970 and sits on 1,480 square metres of land in the hamlet of Ryr, just outside the small town of Köpmannebro in Mellerud Municipality. Fifty-nine square metres of living space, two bedrooms, one shower room. Nothing excessive. But there's a layout logic here that works — the kind of thing you only appreciate once you've actually lived in a place. The living room anchors everything, with its wood-burning stove pushing out heat on grey November afternoons while the large windows frame the lake outside. You're never really indoors here, even when you are. The kitchen is practical and light, with a dedicated dining corner that doubles as the best seat in the house on weekday mornings when the sun hits the water at an angle and turns the whole lake silver. A staircase descends from the property directly to the lakeside and the private jetty. In summer, that staircase gets used a lot. Swedes take cold-water swimm ... click here to read more

Early morning in Grovstanäs, and the light does something extraordinary. It comes off the water — just 150 meters down the path — and hits the upper floor of the house at an angle that fills the L-shaped living room with the kind of gold you can't manufacture with interior design. By the time the coffee is ready, you're sitting in a bay window with a view of the garden, listening to nothing in particular. That's the rhythm this place sets from day one. Edsviksvägen 32 sits quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac on the Grovstanäs peninsula, one of the lesser-known gems tucked into the Stockholm archipelago north of the city. It's not a secret exactly — locals know it well — but it hasn't been overrun the way some coastal spots closer to Stockholm have. The community here has its own boat harbors, a boules court, a football field, and walking trails that cut through the pine and birch toward the rocky shoreline. It has the feel of a place people have protected on purpose. The main house covers 88 square meters across the entrance level, with an additional 45 square meters of finished basement below — 133 square meters total. The upper floor layout is open and well-proportioned: that generous living room, a proper kitchen with enough counter space to actually cook in, a dining area in the bay window that catches afternoon sun, a large bedroom, and a shower room. It's a floor plan that works for two people or easily absorbs a family for a summer. Nothing about it feels cramped or compromised. Downstairs, the basement opens up the possibilities considerably. There's a large family room down here that, with a partition, becomes two additional sleeping areas — useful if you're hosting more guests than the guest house can handle. ... click here to read more

Stand on the terrace at Hällebäck 642 on a clear September evening and you'll understand immediately why people fall so hard for this particular corner of the Swedish west coast. The Gullmarn fjord catches the last of the light below you, the Stångenäset peninsula stretches out in the middle distance, and the birch forest on the hillside has just started turning gold. It's quiet up here — genuinely quiet — apart from the occasional sound of water and wind moving through the trees. This is a 108-square-metre house on the elevated terrain of Bokenäs, a peninsula jutting out between the fjord and the sea north of Uddevalla. Built in 1953 and carefully updated since, it sits on a 1,382-square-metre plot at a height that gives it uninterrupted westward views — the kind you normally only find on properties that cost three times as much. What makes this particular spot work so well is the way the hill opens up exactly where the house sits. Forest on three sides, open sky to the west. You get privacy and panorama at the same time, which in this part of Bohuslän is genuinely hard to find. The interior has been laid out with real intelligence. The kitchen and living room share an open-plan space at the heart of the house, with large windows pulling that fjord view straight into your daily life. Morning coffee here is accompanied by whatever the water is doing that day — glassy and pale in early spring, dark and restless in November, blindingly bright on a July afternoon. The terrace comes off this main living space and feels, from certain angles, like it's floating above the canopy. Evenings out there with a bottle of something cold and the sun going down over the fjord are the kind of thing you'll describe to friends back home ... click here to read more

Step out onto the back deck on a Saturday morning in July and you'll understand immediately. The smell of pine warming in the sun, the faint splash of someone diving off the rocks at Säbyviken a few minutes' walk down the trail, and nothing — genuinely nothing — competing for your attention. Platåslingan 25 on Ingarö sits at that rare intersection of true Swedish archipelago wilderness and real, year-round livability. It's not a summer cottage you winterize and abandon in October. People actually live here, all year, and you can feel it. The house itself was built in 1972, and it has that honest, no-fuss Scandinavian practicality that holds up remarkably well. At 47 square meters, it doesn't try to be more than it is — compact, well-planned, and genuinely comfortable. The open fireplace in the living room is the anchor of the whole place. Come February, when frost edges the birch trees outside and the archipelago goes quiet and still, that fireplace stops being a feature and starts being the point. You light it after a ski track session out on the frozen inlets, pour something warm, and the room closes around you in the best possible way. Large windows pull in more light than you'd expect for a structure this size. The kitchen sits open to the living area — practical for actual cooking, not just aesthetic — and the two bedrooms are calm, private, and sensibly proportioned. One bathroom with shower. Everything where it should be, nothing extraneous. What makes this property genuinely unusual for its price point is the land and the secondary structure. The plot runs to 2,914 square meters, much of it characterful bedrock and mature Swedish forest — the kind of granite-and-pine combination that defines the Värmdö coastli ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a July morning at Havsörnsstigen 28 is the light. It comes in low and golden through the trees on the east side of the plot before eight o'clock, falls across the wooden decking, and turns the whole garden into something worth waking up early for. You pour coffee. The sea is a three-minute walk down the lane. You can smell it before you see it. This is Södra Rörvik — a quiet residential pocket on the island of Väddö, tucked into the Roslagen archipelago about 100 kilometres north of Stockholm. People who know this stretch of the Swedish coast tend to keep it to themselves. The tourist crowds that flood Norrtälje town in summer somehow never quite reach here with the same intensity. The roads stay calm. The swimming cove stays clean. The neighbours wave but don't intrude. It has the particular Swedish quality of feeling genuinely unhurried in a way that coastal spots twice the price rarely manage. The house itself was built in 1964 — a classic Swedish sommarstuga in character, but extended and maintained into something that functions comfortably as a year-round home. At 69 square metres across four rooms, it's compact without feeling cramped. The living room carries the space confidently, with large windows that frame the garden rather than just letting light in — there's a difference, and here it matters. A wood-burning stove sits in the corner, and by late September when the evenings sharpen and the birch leaves go gold, it earns its place. The kitchen connects directly to the living space in a way that makes cooking feel social rather than isolated. Nothing fancy, but everything you actually need when you're spending summers here with people you like. Three bedrooms sleep the family com ... click here to read more

On a still Saturday morning at Sågbacken 20, you pour coffee in a compact kitchen, crack open the terrace door, and the air that comes in smells like pine resin and lake water. That's the whole point of this place. No traffic noise, no neighbour's TV through the wall — just the occasional woodpecker working away somewhere in the trees behind the garden. It's forty square metres of main house, a separate guest cottage, and 749 square metres of land sitting roughly 300 metres from the edge of Lake Mälaren. Simple on paper. Quietly extraordinary in practice. Bro is one of those Swedish addresses that locals tend to keep to themselves. Sitting in Upplands-Bro municipality, about 40 kilometres northwest of Stockholm, the area hugs the northeastern shore of Lake Mälaren — Sweden's third-largest lake and arguably its most atmospheric, edged with medieval church ruins, small islands, and sailing routes that unfurl for hundreds of kilometres. The E18 motorway puts you at Kungsängen station in under ten minutes, and from there the commuter train runs directly into Stockholm's central station in roughly 35 minutes. You can be eating lunch at Östermalm's food hall and back on the terrace in time for sunset. The house itself was built in 1971 and sits in solid, well-maintained condition. At 40 square metres, the layout is efficient without feeling tight — something Swedish summer house design tends to get right. The bedroom is fitted with built-in wardrobes, keeping clutter off the floor. The living room doubles as a flexible second sleeping space if you need it, with room for a daybed alongside a proper dining setup, and a certified open fireplace anchors the room. On the first cool September evening of the year, when the nights s ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the light. Out here on Yxlan, it hits differently — bouncing off Yxlömaren lake just 350 metres down the track, filtering through the old apple trees at the garden edge, warming the west-facing terrace before most of Stockholm has had its first coffee. That terrace, with its outdoor spa already in place, is where you'll spend a disproportionate amount of your time here. Trust that. Yxlan sits in the northern Stockholm archipelago, part of Norrtälje kommun, and it carries that particular quality of Swedish island life that people from the city spend years trying to find. Not the polished resort version. The real kind — where a country store in Köpmanholm sells pickled herring and the ferry to the mainland runs on a timetable that politely refuses to rush you. The island is connected by road and by Waxholmsbolaget ferry from Yxlövik, a few kilometres from Österviksvägen, plus Bus 632 runs several times daily between the island and the mainland. Practical, quiet, close enough to everything, far enough from the noise. The house at Österviksvägen 44 was built in 1955 and has been brought up to year-round standard — proper insulation, heating systems that handle a Swedish February without complaint. That matters more than people expect when they first start thinking about archipelago property. A summer cabin is one thing. A place you can escape to in November, light a fire, and watch the frost settle on the meadow outside — that's a different category entirely, and this property sits firmly in it. Inside, the layout is compact but genuinely usable. Three rooms plus kitchen spread across 66 square metres: a kitchen with a dedicated dining nook that handles four ... click here to read more

Late afternoon on a July Saturday, the southwest sun pours through the glass-enclosed patio and turns the pine floorboards a deep amber. You've just come back from Björknäs's little beach — kids still sandy, everyone hungry — and the kitchen smells of whatever went into the cast-iron pan twenty minutes ago. That's the rhythm this house runs on. Easy, unhurried, genuinely Swedish. Björknäs sits inside Roslagen, the long, ragged stretch of coastline northeast of Stockholm that locals have been quietly escaping to for generations. It's not the flashy archipelago of postcards — it's better. Unpretentious timber cottages tucked between birch stands, narrow lanes that end at sheltered coves, the smell of pine resin on a warm afternoon. The community here is tight enough to feel like a village but relaxed enough that nobody bothers you. The kind of place where your neighbours wave from their garden and then leave you alone. The house itself was built in 1972 and sits on a 1,765 square metre plot — a genuinely generous footprint for this part of Roslagen. There's a real sense of privacy here. The garden mixes mown lawn with wilder natural patches that attract butterflies and the occasional hedgehog, and sunlight tracks across it for most of the day given the open southwest aspect. In June, when the Swedish light goes on until 10pm, evenings out here take on a quality that's hard to describe to anyone who hasn't sat in Scandinavian summer dusk with a cold drink and nowhere to be. Inside, 48 square metres sounds compact on paper. In practice, the layout uses every centimetre thoughtfully. The kitchen was completely gutted and rebuilt in 2019 — new cabinets, new surfaces, proper appliances — and it connects directly to that glas ... click here to read more

The coffee tastes better on this terrace. Something about the birch trees filtering the early morning light, the faint smell of salt air drifting up from Herräng's rocky shore just around the corner, the silence that isn't really silence at all — it's wood pigeons, rustling leaves, the occasional distant outboard motor. You're 350 meters from the sea. It feels like another world entirely. Råvikskroken 1 sits on a generous 2,156-square-meter plot in one of the most quietly coveted pockets of the Stockholm Archipelago. Herräng is not one of those over-photographed Swedish villages that ends up on every travel blog. It's known among those who know — jazz musicians, archipelago regulars, Stockholm families who discovered it decades ago and have been coming back every June since. The Herräng Dance Camp, one of the world's most famous swing jazz festivals, has called this village home for over 40 years. In summer, the sound of live brass carries on the wind and the village takes on a warm, international energy before settling back into its natural quiet. If you want the untouched archipelago without the weekend crowds of Vaxholm or Grisslehamn, Herräng is exactly where you end up. The house itself was built in 1978 and has been kept in good condition — this isn't a renovation project, it's a property you can start enjoying immediately. At 78 square meters across two bedrooms and one bathroom, the layout is compact but genuinely livable, the kind of floor plan that feels right rather than just adequate. The living and dining area opens up around a fireplace that earns its keep every single autumn weekend, when the evenings drop fast and the archipelago turns copper and rust. Large windows pull in the garden and the surroundin ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a summer evening at Hysängsvägen 36 is the light. It comes low and golden off the Furusundsleden strait, cuts through the pine trees, and lands across the west-facing deck in a way that makes you want to pour something cold and simply sit. That's the rhythm of life on Yxlan — unhurried, quiet in the best possible sense, and astonishingly close to Stockholm. Yxlan is one of the outermost accessible islands in the Norrtälje archipelago, connected to the mainland by a free car ferry that runs year-round. It's not the kind of place that ends up on tourist lists. Swedes who know the archipelago well tend to keep it to themselves. The island sits where the inner skerries give way to open Baltic water, and on clear mornings you can smell the sea before you even step outside. The property on Hysängsvägen sits in the Hysängen area, a pocket of the island where the plots are generous and the neighbors are close enough to wave to but far enough that you can't hear their conversations. The main house is 72 square meters — not large, but used well. The open-plan living room and kitchen share a single bright space with big windows on the western side, which means afternoon light fills the room naturally without any effort on your part. Direct from the living room, a large wooden deck stretches out to meet the garden. The deck is where you'll spend most of your time in June, July, and August — eating, reading, watching the light change. It faces west, which in the Swedish archipelago summer means you're outside until ten at night without a jacket. Two bedrooms in the main house keep things practical. They're quiet rooms, good for sleeping deeply after a day on the water or a long hike through the island ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a July morning at Mistralvägen 4 is the light. It comes sideways through the pines, catches the wooden floors, and lands on the kitchen table in a way that makes you want to sit down and stay forever. Then the smell hits — salt air and warm timber and something faintly floral from the plot outside. You haven't even made coffee yet. This 1958 holiday home in Gotlands Tofta is one of those rare finds: a proper old Swedish sommarhus on a genuine plot of 2,449 square meters, priced honestly, and sitting within easy reach of Tofta Beach — one of the longest and most loved stretches of sand on the entire island of Gotland. It's 61 square meters of authentic character distributed over one and a half floors, and every square meter earns its keep. Step inside and the living room does what good rooms do — it draws you in. Exposed ceiling beams, wide wooden floorboards, a fireplace insert that crackles to life in late September when the tourists have gone and the island belongs to you. The large windows look out toward the sea — not a full panorama, but a real, honest glimpse that reminds you exactly where you are. On clear evenings, the light off the water turns everything amber. The kitchen sits next to the living room, functional and unhurried, with enough bench space to put together a proper meal. Gotland is serious about its food: local lamb from the heathland, saffron pancakes from the Saturday market in Visby, chanterelles picked from the woods just down the road in August. A kitchen like this — practical, with room for a dining table — is where those ingredients come to life. A walkthrough room with built-in wardrobes handles the coats and kayak gear and everything else that accumulates duri ... click here to read more

Picture this: a midsummer Saturday, and you're sitting on a wide southwest-facing wooden deck with a cup of coffee that's gone slightly cold because you kept getting distracted by the light. It does something particular here in Strömstad — bounces off the open landscape behind the house, turns everything amber by late afternoon, and just refuses to let you go inside. That's the daily reality of owning this 1930s house at Stora Ytten Karlslund, and it's the kind of thing you can't fully appreciate until you've experienced it yourself. Built in the 1930s and kept in genuinely good condition, this is a two-bedroom wooden house with 90 square meters of living space sitting on a 975-square-meter plot. Not a renovation project. Not a compromise. A proper Swedish house with original wooden floors, period architectural details, and the kind of proportions that newer builds just don't replicate — rooms that feel considered rather than squeezed. The large windows weren't put there for the listing photos. They're there because someone who built this place understood that Scandinavian light is precious, and you catch every last beam of it when you can. The layout is practical without being rigid. Two bedrooms handle the sleeping comfortably, and the third room flexes well — home office one weekend, guest room the next, quiet reading corner the one after that. The kitchen opens directly onto the garden deck, which matters more than you'd think. Breakfast outside in August, herb pots on the railing, someone grilling something that smells good from next door — that's the rhythm of this place in summer. The bathroom has been updated with modern fixtures while the rest of the house keeps its older bones intact, which is exactly the bal ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and garden

Step outside on a Saturday morning in October, the air sharp with the smell of pine resin and leaf smoke drifting from a neighbor's garden two fields over. The Lagan River catches the low autumn light about a ten-minute walk from your front door. You're at the end of a road — there is literally no through traffic — and the only sound is the occasional creak of the old apple trees along the garden edge. This is what 200 square meters of well-kept Swedish countryside living actually feels like at Grönö 3551. Built in the 1930s when Swedish rural construction was about permanence rather than speed, the house has the kind of bones that later decades couldn't replicate — solid framing, generous room proportions, and a relationship with natural light that feels genuinely considered. The large windows don't just let daylight in; they frame views of open countryside that change week by week through the seasons. Snowfall turns the 2,401-square-meter plot into something from a Carl Larsson painting in January. By June it's all long grass, wild strawberries along the fence line, and evenings that don't get properly dark until almost midnight. The owners have made the practical investments that really count. A modern air-to-water heat pump handles the heavy lifting on heating, backed by solar panels with battery storage that meaningfully cut running costs year-round. Two fireplaces — one in the main living area, one elsewhere in the house — mean you're never dependent on a single heat source, and they bring a particular kind of warmth that thermostats simply can't replicate on a February evening when the temperature outside drops to minus ten. The roof is recently replaced, which matters enormously in a Swedish climate where freez ... click here to read more
