home

this morning i left tromsø to go back to krabbesholm. the trip took 12 hours. i left at 6am and arrived at 6pm. flying itself didn't take more than 4 hours all together (three flights), it was the waiting that took most of the time.
when i got up at 4.30am i looked out the window and this was what i saw:



behind that wall of late-april snow, i can usually look over to the other island, straight at the airport. luckily tromsø airport is used to snow at odd times (including june) so it didn't delay us more than half an hour.

but now i'm back at krabbesholm with a massive headache and completely exhausted. it's nice though, and here everything is fresh green, instead of white. i was told that for the rest of this week i have architecture instead of photography, which will be interesting since i know nothing about it.


yesterday before going out to eat pizza with my friends.

kittens

for easter i've been home in tromsø. it's strange to be back home, because i realize my life is so much different now than it was when i lived here. though it is nice to finally relax a little at home, sleeping in and slopping in front of the tv, eating chocolate. i've really missed being home and it's been nice to see my mom and cat and friends again.

if your monday is as grey and rainy as mine, i suggest a cup of tea and a good book. i've just started reading "the book thief" by markus zusak. it seems to be a pretty good book, anyone who's read it? did you like it?

our neighbors cat, who also is our cat findus' best friend, has had kittens while i was away. now they are small balls of fur who don't stand still for a second.

three days in copenhagen

from monday to wednesday, my photography class had a field trip to copenhagen to set up our exhibition and visit galleries.

the first day was spent on setting up the exhibition. it took from 1pm to 9pm to organize the photos and hang them up. it was a long and exhausting day, also because i had spent the entire morning traveling from the school to copenhagen, a 5 and a half hour train ride.


(the two photos i exhibited)

the second day we walked around copenhagen all day, visiting galleries and parks and small cozy cafés.



the third and final day was the opening of the exhibition. before that we wandered around copenhagen, visiting shops and more galleries. the opening went really well, and friends i hadn't seen in years stopped by, which was really nice. the exhibition is at toves galleri on vesterbrogade in copenhagen, and is open till the 27th, if you want to see it.
