a quickie to babylon

sometimes I leave the mountain and roll myself down to babylon, just to be reminded of how very different the urban life is.

one time use camera, part 3

we are growing older, inevitably, my friends are becoming parents…

such weird effects with this one time use cameras. I find it somewhat charming and creepy at the same time.

postcards from mexico

she sends me beautiful postcards full of sweetness, and I take a photo of the post, one way or the other. this time hidden behind my vine plant, forgot what it’s called…

one time use camera, part 2.

uppsala. I guess we will almost always have a special feeling about the city we were born in.

one time use camera

part 1.

some funky defects and blurry focus but I still got another one right away.

hip hip hip

hurra! det är din födelsedag!

happy birthday to my niece, from auntie absent who was never present at her birthday.

there’s something

….comforting about fathers doing pony tails. reminds me of childhood.

tools, teddies and lots of beer

you have to drink lots of beer if you are a construction worker.

so many ongoing projects over here. it is quite amazing what you can achieve when you are working together.

sweet potato, a portrait, handprints

getting rusty at posting. but still out there collecting moments.

was just wondering, how do you like to spend your mornings and do you find it easy or difficult to get out of bed?

one white, one rye

sourdough babies. dreaming of opening a bakery sometimes…perhaps my second career?

once upon a time it was summer

and now it isn’t anymore but I still enjoy the last moments of it, sun on my face and short sleeved shirts.

p.s finns det några svenska bloggare därute som frilansar/är egenföretagare som har lust att ge mig lite information om hur det funkar??

groovy girl

luckily still a collection of photos from the summer that I haven’t shared. seems like everything moves too quick for me to catch it, these days…

back from the trip,  with lots of impressions and food for thought in my luggage.

and instead…

whenever there is a free moment

…I miss my camera…

out and about

crazy days, berlin, london, amsterdam, rotterdam in four days. I did not even bring my camera, that is how busy~workworkwork~ it is! love and hugs to you all, fall in europe is lovely.

october, last year

this year the rain started already in september. rain is good…soothing.

embrace october, enjoy the change.

homegrown

more of those little outdoor moments, more: here.

a chestnut pumpkin I have nourished. and hanging out and drinking tea on the grass.

the things I do

those intense days again~ waking up before sunrise, snoozing, drinking blueberry tea, meditation, oh that meditation, and either rushing to pluck figs or milking/herding goats, then building and creating the village kindergarten in two mongolian yurts, and writing a few long emails,trying out new recipes, making some phone calls, boiling some jam, preparing classes, remembering to take those B12 pills, writing receipts, thinking some, and day dreaming, and catching myself getting carried away and bringing myself back to here and now, to whatever that might be again, folding the dough of some rye bread, dancing, mixing mud in the concrete mixer, having a beer to cool down…and time goes by. and each day ends and a new one starts.

like my teacher said, we got to carry and hold ourselves in love. that inspired me….

the nightgown

and snippets of portraits.

trying to get a bigger, holistic picture of myself and my surrounding by withdrawing deeper down inside.

the hike

from one village to the other, through the valley, passing plantations of apricots and figs.

I recommend all of us to spend more time outside, in nature…
