After the storm – first walk in 2012
turn your back to the world
i think my younger brother harald was responsible for capturing me in this flattering position.. i miss summer, secret spots for berries, mountains and spending time outside the library. it’s either this, or please give me some christmas spirit!
ps: the diary is currently neglected due to my master thesis.
the dark side of summer
Taken the 23.07.2011. A dark day driving from Ålesund to Oslo listening to the news about the terror attack the previous day.
sister winter is still here
hello friends, i’m taking some time off from berlin. i spent the weekend at stranda, my own personal powder snow paradise. next week i’m off to sun (and surf?)
meet my postcard collection – woman riding pig
my favorite souvenirs when i go traveling are kitschy or weird postcards, where the persons or cites just appear to be trying a bit too hard to be authentic. since my friends know that i love this type of cards, i’ve received quite a few funny ones from around the world. so say hello to my postcard collection, where every postcard comes with a story – or just with a laugh. and next time you’re traveling, remember to send me a card!
this beauty comes from when i was working at the tourist information in my hometown. although this photography from 1932 apparently is one of the most popular postcards in norway, i first noticed it in 2007. the norwegian name of the postcard is “seterjentens fridag” and every year around 30 000 copies are sold.
