The Old Town
A day before our departure back to Norway, we went to see Alcudia’s old town. I love old and ancient architecture plus the history behind it. We went there around 12 noon so it was hot and there were already lots of people. However, it didn’t stop us from admiring the place. The city walls…

Mallorca in my Mind
This year’s summer destination is Mallorca. We booked this trip just earlier this year. It’s not practical because it’s more expensive than booking a trip for at least 6 months in advance. However, I have no regrets despite the price because Mallorca is a very beautiful place and besides we needed a refill of sunshine…

Is it winter, mom?
That was my daughter’s question when we got out of our plane in Bergen from our flight from Mallorca. I answered no it’s still summer but the temperature difference is big so it felt colder. The temperature in Mallorca was around 33 degrees when we left and in Bergen was around 15, so yes the…

The Cancer Patient
Today I met her again. Though with a shaved head, I recognized her. Despite the fact that she was diagnosed with breast cancer six weeks ago, she radiates with positivity. She’s back for more tests and supplementary mammograms. While she constantly smiles and said that she’s fine, her eyes told me otherwise. I felt sad…

Wow! That was Fast!
I’m actually quite surprised that the process of sowing and planting cucumbers go fast. I thought that it would take more than a week to see some sprouts in the little greenhouse. Then repotted them on the 9th day. It already smells cucumber! Cucumber plants cannot stand on their own as they are creeping vines…

It Works!
The treatment for my migrane works and I couldn’t be happier. For some years, I’ve been suffering on and off from the migrane and it had driven me nuts some of times the attack occured. My GP prescribed Candesartan, a blood pressure medicine. Yeah you read that right. Even though I have Sumatriptan for the…

Many holidays this month in Norway. First is the Labor Day, then followed by Ascension day, the 17th of May and lastly, Pentecost. I’m grateful for my job because we get day offs during holidays. It really means so much to me having free days from work and spend time with friends and family. At…
