  • Earth Day Photo

    Because it’s Earth Day yesterday, I’m sharing one of my favorite nature shots. This shot was taken two weeks ago during one of my hikes with Zorro at Åsane Norway. It’s not our first time in this place, but for me this is an achievement because I reached the place without a guide. The hike…

  • Knock, Knock!

    Knock, Knock!

    My life had been a roller coaster ride during the first two months this year. I felt hopeless, insecure and unsure about my future and career as the unemployment rate increases. However, I did not give up. I searched for jobs and have been an active volunteer near my place. I also talked to my…

  • Coffee, Tea and More!

    As my relationship with tea gets stronger, my interest for tea shops and cafe grow as well. Most of the tea lovers in Bergen that I chatted to, online, suggested that I check out Herskap & Tjenere. I have been here before, but I did not pay attention to the teas because I was not…

  • Bright and Cold

    The snow is back after two weeks of storm and mild weather. I am also grateful that it is getting brighter again. My mood is starting to get better and I am motivated to try something new when it comes to jobs. The economic crisis is not yet over. Yesterday, one of the biggest banks…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • My Happy Place

    In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Happy Place.” Whenever I need to unwind or take a break from work, I always go out in nature. It’s not only good for the mind and body but it’s also free.

  • Into the Woods

    I find forests interesting because whenever I’m in one I can’t help but wonder if there are mystical creatures that could suddenly appear. Like for example a unicorn, a troll or a werewolf. Who knows what the woods are hiding from the mortals. Anyway, this shot was taken on the way to Høgstefjellet, a mountain…

  • Vinteren kommer!

    Winter is coming. We can all feel it. It’s in the air.

  • Nature Photography Cured Me

    Being out in the nature makes me feel free and contented. It makes me forget all the unnecessary things that I crave and it motivates me to be a better person. Before, I used to be dependent on people around me when it comes to hiking (traveling), because I was afraid to get lost and…
