Where the water looks like glass, the air is crisp and snow is normal in June.

Wanderlust

Wanderlust. I don't really need to say more. But I want to. That is what I feel when I see this photo. My beautiful friend Lina took it when she came to visit about two months ago. I love how it captures the wildness of the forest. There's no road and only deeper woods ahead of us. I can feel the power in my walk and the urge too see what comes next. I can feel the fresh clean air deep in my lungs. The sun shining on my face and the smell of trees and spruce leef flowing through my nose. I am enjoying the moment to the fullest and at the same time I am excited to see what comes next. Nature make me feel at peace. I feel at home. And at the same time adventurous. Wanting to explore. To see the view from the highest tree. To walk around the big stones and feel the warmth on the one side, and chill on the other. To run through high grass so fast I think my legs will fall off. To dive into the lake and feel the cold water wash of my sweat, flow through my body and clean my mind and soul. To lie naked and stare out into the blue eternity while the sun dries my skin. To feel one with the solid ground underneeth me and the wind dancing over my arms. Totlally in harmony with myself and my surroundings. To never want to leave and at the same time be curious to open my eyes, take another step and see what's behind the next tree, or stone, or sea. 

And sometimes I think there is beauty in even a grey day, with a "boring" view. 

I hope you can see it too.

3pm

When 3pm looks like this, there is no place I'd rather be.

Bromo, Indonesia

Bluebell, wake me up and let me see.

Hanging upside down. Don't know what I want. Bored out of my mind. Waiting around. Restless. Walked out. Took some photos. Empty eyes. Unedited. Just as they are. Boring. But still a bit beautiful. Cheer me up. Give me some inspiration. Come and visit. Invite me over.

Easter Egg Treasure Hunt

Today I watched the sun rise. Well not really, but I woke up at 4 a.m. and the sun was not up yet. At 5 a.m. I gave up on trying to sleep and went down to the livingroom to watch some Gossip on the computer and the sun rose while I was watching an eating an apple. So I think it kind of counts..After breakfast I went out to look for my Easter egg because today, as you all know, it is Easter Saturday. My younger sister felt too mature for it this year so I put on the clogs to go by myself. Mom was nice to come along, although, I think she just wanted to see how long it took before I found it;) haha

Irma helped me. Well, she ran around the garden at least. I found this feather and took it as a sign. Found an egg. But it was not mine...

After a looong time of searching and mom giving me clues like "it is near a lot of different materials", "you cannot just look for it, you have to peer!" and "follow the signs that the nature is giving you" (and of course a Lot of laughter in between), I foun it! Yeey^^

Hope you get a lovely Easter and that you find your Easter egg faster than me! And that you too are acctually children on the inside and look for your candy filled eggs;) Now I'm off to kick some at the first tennis game this year with my friends! Bye <3
