a few days in London...

It was really great to get away from everything in life and just go away for a few days just me and my sister. We've been to London a few times before, done different things, and this time we had a little more time than previous visits. I finally got time to go to the museum to see Sutton Hoo... we didnt have time to see all the things there cuz we arrived late, but i saw Sutton Hoo.. i really like those helmets! We also visited Barbican and walked around it. It looked a bit out of place, and a bit strange haha, but it was cool, and it felt heavy.
We were pretty stoked to see Battersea power station, the fact that it was a construction site at the time we were there wasnt fun but still, its a cool building. We walked a lot all over town, and only took the subway when we had to. That underground is a bit claustrophobic with no oxygen...and why i try to avoid it. Overall, big city air is not good for the skin! I really did miss the fresh scandinavian air! I did bring 135 film and will post the photos when i have found a place here in Norway to develop them.. *updated.

HANSON HANSON HANSON!



After 7 years of waiting to see them again(!), on tuesday we queued for 10 hours on their Shout It Out world tour. THAT'S how we got taylor just a few meters right in front of us at the concert. camp sweden.

They played lots of songs from each albums and i kind of died when they did the songs from middle of nowhere, which is my favorite... mmmbop, where's the love and a minute without you, it was such a surreal feeling, hearing those songs, feeling 11 years old again but seeing them older singing. i'm so grateful! stardust was all around! it was amazing. the fans we hung out with that day were awesome too. can't wait for more concerts now! 

we love hanson.

london. part 1.

{M}y sister and i hurried over to London for a few days this week to catch a Hanson concert. I rather wanted to see them in Amsterdam, but it was Stina's call so London it was. Apart from precious hanson, we lived in greenwich, and we had only a few hours here and there to do and see as much as possible. we planned those hours in the city down to the minute and ran around like crazy chickens. luckily most of the things we BOTH wanted to explore was all in Soho! i barely got to catch moments to photograph anything because we were always on the move. i'm fascinated by huge cities. i like all the white stone buildings in london city and statues., but huge cities also intimidate me a little. i see that my pictures above all point up, london is just filled with nice buildings.
