The weather forecast was showed sun with only a few clouds and I just had to go to Mount Hananipa.

Yes, I said it right. I'm back and alive. I didn't get myself suicided (such a cool new word) after the final moments of the Spain vs. Germany match last week. Some people actually thought I was going to kill myself which I am actually glad they did because that means that I'm still believable. I f…

When you are away from other people for so long you tend to become crazy. We have obviously began to go crazy and here are some of the results:

After two days in Oslo, it was time for us to hit the road yet again to visit Bergen.  We had been told that after a few days in Oslo, you have basically seen it all as Oslo is a smaller capital.  I don’t necessarily agree, but none the less we wanted to see more of Norway!  We had…

  Imagine yourself, at the helm of the largest three-masted barque or helping to set more than 2000m2 of sail in less than one hour!   We did not need  sailing experience beforehand; professional seamen will trained us  while we were  aboard.The «Stats…

Bergen is Norways second city (and first if it's about rainfall!), situated near the North sea, so blessed with a mild sea climate. It's an old hanseatic city, which is best witnessed by the Bryggen area with the wooden houses. One of them is the unicorn, a restaurant where I had a great dinner. Li…

Finally its my time for going somewhere again! After 5months since my last trip outside of the country i managed to put in two weeks of traveling bliss again.

Erlend, (Euthia) had a birthday on Aug 26th and I looked at his profile photo and thought, I could give him a gift by changing his shot. I downloaded the shot and did a little lighting and color changes.  I hope he is happy with the outcome.  Happy Birthday!!   If this is a photo …

You know how they always talk about California being the 5th or 6th largest economy in the world and you wonder how that can be?  That can be when the second largest city in a country comprises of 200,000 people and a lot of sheep.  I can't get over how tiny everything is here.  In N…
