Creators Inn around the globe

 
We have always believed that Creators Inn is a great idea, but we didn’t expect all the publicity we’ve been getting from around the globe. Besides Korea Creators Inn by Elvine has been featured in Japan, The Netherlands, Russia, Israel, Lithuania, Germany, Canada, Hungary, Italy, Australia and Brasil – just to name a few of many.   

We are humble to the fact that so many people seem to like what we do. Thanks for all the support and keep contacting us. We love to hear from you!

Happy Holidays!

Vacation ideas #3. It’s a bit cheesy, but isn’t that what Christmas is all about post-Coke-Santa? Christmas at amusement park Liseberg has become one of Gothenburg’s prime tourist attractions. But then again, who can resist the beauty of over 2 million lights covering trees and buildings?

With this December vacation idea we also want to wish everyone Happy Holidays!
Creators Inn by Elvine will return in 2009.

Copenhagen based lesbian ghetto-funk, pop-slamming MC/DJ duo Fagget Fairys met on the dance floor while DJ Sensimilla was spinning records and Ena stagedived hoping to get Sensimillas attention! She got just that, along with 20 stitches in her knee. Not long after that, they started dating, moved in together, got engaged and started making music together.

Fagget Fairys stayed at Creators Inn by Elvine while in Gothenburg to play at club Cheesy Not Cheesy.
