The Rebel Chic

Live life. Take photos. Drink good tea.

  • Choices (a Haiku)

    Where to go right now? Left or right I can’t decide Life’s choices. Not easy.

  • Girl’s Handball

    Last Sunday, I was invited by my friend to watch a handball match near where I live. By the time I arrived the second match was about to start. I was only there for 15 minutes because I was going to see the Star Wars movie too. I find it fun to watch. I enjoy…

  • TAKE Sushi Bergen

    Moving to a bigger city is tough and so as finding a good sushi restaurant. Luckily, during my visit to Galleriet (a name of a mall in Bergen) last year I found this sushi restaurant by accident. It was not hard to find because it is located near the main entrance of Galleriet. I love…

  • Letter T(ea)

    Drinking tea is a part of my lifestyle and my diet. In fact, I drink at least a pot of tea everyday. My favorite tea is Sencha (green tea from Japan) followed by Genmaicha (green tea with roasted rice) and then Oolong tea  (from China). I love teas because of its health benefits and because…

  • A Monochrome Kind of Day

    Mornings could be a tough time of the day to wake up and stay awake. I admit that I find it hard to be a morning person. Like today, I was dead tired this morning. I could of course have some cup of coffee but that would upset my stomach so I opened the door…

  • New Home

    It is official. I have finally moved to Bergen! New home. New city. New opportunities. However it does not mean that I am saying goodbye to Stavanger for good. My family and friends live there and there are some places that I have never been to but would love to see/visit. The place that I…

  • Happy New Year

    Hello and Happy Twenty Sixteen to all! I am glad that I have survived the obstacles of 2015 and I am also grateful for all the lessons that 2015 has taught me. I am looking forward to the new lessons, challenges and opportunities this brand new year has for me. It is not going to…

  • The Gingerbread Town of Bergen

    One of the coolest things that I’ve ever seen this year is Bergen’s Gingerbread Town. I’ve never thought that this gingerbread town is the biggest in the whole world! I can say that I’m impressed by the different kinds of structures that they built out of gingerbread. These were built by kids, bankers and people…

  • I’ll be watching you

    This is my take on last weekend’s The Daily Post photo challenge, Eye Spy. We’ve all been there. Sometimes we get that feeling that someone is watching us. Sometimes it’s just the mind playing tricks on us. However there are times that it’s the instincts that try to warn us.  

  • A Short Trip to Fløyen

    This weekend, my friends visited me in Bergen. It was their first time to be here so I was really happy to show them what Bergen has to offer. When they arrived here it was already getting dark and it was also raining a lot. So we showed them some of the malls in the…

  • La Sagrada Familia

    This is my take on the Daily Post photo challenge, ornate. This is inside the majestic La Sagrada Familia church which was designed by a Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi. I can say that Gaudi did a very good job. I went here in 2012. I remember waiting to get inside for an hour in the…

  • The Art of Desserts

    I just want to share some pictures of the desserts from a children’s birthday party that I attended three weeks ago. These are only the three of seven desserts. I didn’t have the chance to taste all because I had to leave early.
