25.01.2022 We're proud to announce the winner of our photo competition - @davidjames__photography! Scroll to see the beautiful images he captured of our #XC40 on the road. Congratulations, David. And thanks again to everyone who entered. #MyVolvo #VolvoCarAustralia

25.01.2022 That feeling when you beat everyone else to the beach. Happy holidays and stay safe. #P1800 #VolvoCarAustralia

25.01.2022 It’s pretty hard not to look up to the Volvo S60 especially at this great angle! Thanks @blacked_s60_revotee #S60 #VolvoCarAustralia

25.01.2022 We challenge you to find a better view. Though Narooma isn’t bad either. @willtres explored NSW in his Volvo down the south coast recently, to support the locals there rebuilding after a difficult year. This is his take on a Recovery Roadtrip. What’s yours? Share your trips with us using #RecoveryRoadtrip for a chance to be featured. Whether you drive a Volvo or not, we can all do our part to help Australia get back on track. #VolvoCarsAu #VolvoCars

25.01.2022 Have you ever bitten into an apple plucked straight from the tree? This is what it feels like. @tashsefton headed to the famous apple region of Bilpin with her family to support the local growers and businesses in the area. Many of the fruit orchards there were burned in the bushfires earlier this year, and are now sprouting new shoots. But there’s still a lot we can all do to help the people of Bilpin rebuild. Head up for the day like Tash did. Buy local. And even share a story. It’s only an hour’s drive, but you can make a day of it. Share your road trips with us at #RecoveryRoadtrip

25.01.2022 Follow the call of the Blue Mountains for expanses of the calming green-blue views this area is renowned for. While you’re on this Recovery Roadtrip, drop in and support local businesses like @sorensensglasshouse and @tourn.ament in Medlow Bath (formerly known as Synonymous). Both offer delicious, heartwarming dishes that go down a treat. And when it’s time to head home, the friendly family that run @bilpinfruitbowl can help you load your car with fresh fruit for the return trip. Help Australia get back on track today. #RecoveryRoadtrip #omtanke

24.01.2022 Omtanke is a Swedish word for care. It’s a philosophy that’s framed our approach to sustainability and is what informed the Living Seawall. To discover how the project helped revitalise Sydney Harbour’s shoreline, join us at Ocean Lovers Festival 17 - 22nd March #iseachange

24.01.2022 Climate change is the #UltimateSafetyTest

24.01.2022 We consider every person, no matter how small. Our integrated booster cushions have two settings, so even when your kids grow they can still feel comfortable on the road. It’s just one of the ways we think differently about design. We call it Omtanke and we welcome you to try it #VolvoCars #XC90 #XC60 #Omtanke

24.01.2022 The Hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) element Ambience is all about creating a calming atmosphere. And what better way to do that than through music. Our playlist has been curated to amplify the calm in your home. Let your mind drift to these calming chords in a cosy armchair with a steaming cup of tea. Or let the music infuse with the notes of the next cake you bake. Click link to start listening https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2vpJDwjzDpM16GxrsjwU1X

23.01.2022 The Hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) practice of Delight gives us permission to worry less about eating healthy, instead shifting our attention to the benefits of filling our home with the sweet, uplifting, comforting smells of baking. And nothing smells more warming than homemade Swedish cinnamon buns. See recipe below. Ingredients For buns: 3 cups all-purpose flour... 1/4 cup white sugar 1 tsp freshly ground cardamom 2 1/4 tsp instant yeast 1 cup lukewarm milk 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted & slightly cooled 1/2 tsp salt For filling: 1/3 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature 1/3 cup white sugar 1 tbsp ground cinnamon To finish buns: 1 beaten egg, for egg wash Decorating sugar*, chopped almonds, or white sugar, to sprinkle on top, optional Instructions 1: Place flour, sugar, cardamom, & yeast in the bowl of a standing mixer. Mix until combined. Attach dough hook to mixer. Add milk & melted butter to flour mixture and mix on low speed until dough comes together, 2-3 mins. Add salt and continue mixing for another 8 mins on low-medium speed until dough is soft and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. 2: Place dough in a large bowl brushed with oil and toss to coat. Cover and let sit in a warm place for 1-2hrs, or until doubled in size. (Rising will be slower in cold weather.) 3: To make filling: In a small bowl, combine soft butter, sugar, and cinnamon until it’s a smooth paste. 4: Shaping the dough: On a lightly floured surface roll dough out into 35x35cm square. Spread butter-sugar mixture onto entire surface, making a very thin layer. Fold dough into thirds like a business letter, then roll again into a rough 35x20cm rectangle. 5: Facing the long edge, cut dough into roughly 2cm wide and 20cm long strips. Twist each strip several times, slightly stretching it as you go. Grab one end of the twisted strip and coil the dough around your hand twice, then over the top. Coil dough again and tuck the loose end in at the bottom. 6: Arrange buns on a baking tra keeping as much space between them as possible. Cover and rest for 45-60 minutes or until doubled in size. Meanwhile, set the oven rack to the middle position & preheat oven to 180C. 7: Brush buns with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, & bake for 15-20 mins until golden brown. Allow buns to cool for 5 mins & transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. 8: Serve warm or at room temperature. Credit: Pretty Simple Sweet
