1½ week ago me and a friend of mine, we booked a trip to Lisboa! wihoooo. it was very spontanout out of the moment kinda thing. m friend asked me on a monday and the wensday evening at 11pm the flight plus hotel was booked! we actually surprised ourselves by how fast it all went...so we re leaving for lisboa this monday! and we ll be gone for 4 days. and the best thing is that we arrive early just before noon which means we ll have the whole monday too. and then we take the afternoon flight home on thursday. so we have 4 days there and neither of us have been there before so we re super excited!!!! ive never been to portugal before. but ive heard its beautiful and that the ppl are really nice. i had a girl from lisboa in my first photography class. shes was really really open and sweet. so i hope we meet open and nice people there which i think will be quite easy. but one thing taht will be kinda strange, atleast for me is flying over spain and NOT land in spain...will be so strange. 

and one more thing that im soooo looking forward to except the sun and laying on the beach and all that is the Atlantic ocean=) the atlantic waves are just AMAZING. they are soo big and powerful and mesmerizing=) they are magical. thats atleast what i remember from tarifa that i btw miss sooo much. so im looking forward to see those beautful and big atlantic waves again. wihooooo. yyyeeeeeees!

oh im sooo gonna dream about lisboa tonite...i cant wait!

today me and my mum and my sister went to cph for the day. copenhagen is such a nice city. its totally dfferent from the swedish cities, it kinda reminds me of paris with its architecture and cph has really cool cafés and restaurants that are modern but with a touch of the older days and a bit elegant style mixed with odd things. they have really good shopping there becus danish ppl are not afraid of what other ppl think of them when they buy expensive designers clothes. its unfortunately the opposite here in sweden. and since i love glamour and glotter and really cool clothes that stand out a bit cph is perfect for me. i should move there....hmmm...maybe i should look for a job there? jeje, we ll see... maybe in the future. 

anyway we spent a great afternoon in cph. we just went straight for lunch at this adorable restaurant that we ve been to once before last year. this one is totally mixed with different styles. a bit french, a bit elegant, a bit odd art...we love that restaurant! and then we looked through some shops and we did some shopping=) wihoooo. im ready for the fall now=) and then we or atleast was craving for a biiig cappuccino so we went to one of our favorite restaurants/cafés , café norden. its a big place at a big square so we just sat there looking at all the ppl walkig by..apparently there was a guy doing some tricks that ppl kept looking at in a circle..it was quite fun looking at all the ppl who were looking at this guy=)

hope u all had a great saturday. im gonna go to sleep now.

as i said earlier its the annual festval here in malmö so while i was was killing some time to wait for for my friend i spent the hour taking pictures of ppl at the festival. it was alot of fun! i havent done it such a long time now so i had almost forgotten the feeling i get when i take pictures of ppl=) it puts me in such a good mood and it makes me very happy. i should do it more often..

Yday i went to the the timbuktu concert so i spent the night in malmö so this morning (afterr going to bed with a big smile on my face) i went for a un in pildamnsparken ( a big and beautiful parc in the center of malmö). Its a really beautiful parc that i unfortunately rarely spend any time going to. Its quite big with a lake with fountains in the middle of it that get lit up by night. So by night its even more beautiful. I should go there more often.. Anyway, it has different parts, one that is around the lake and one that has a smaller forest and one part with a temple and flowers. Its great for runners since its quite big.
And now im having breakfast close to my sisters place. I really like this square where this cafe is at becus its small but theres always ppl here becus there are lots of cafes and restaurants and stores here so theres always something going on at this square.

Yday the concert was quite ok. Not the best one ive been to hes still really good. What stuns me the mst is his genuin attitude. Hes honest but just soo nice. And hes good-looking. And i can tell that he realy really really loves what hes doing. He loves it with all of his heart. And ppl who do their work, whatever they do, with their heart, they are happy and they bring ppl closer together. And their work is nothing but "perfection" just becus when u do something that u truly love, u want to make the most of it and u do ur best. It doesnt matter what u do, whether u are a vetrinarian, a golf player, an author, lawyer, a gardener...as long as u do it with love.

But to go back to the concert, whether a concert is good or bad or just ok, what i love about them is the atmosphere. Becus everyones happy and cheerful and everyone gets excited and happy just by being there listening to the artist/s. And theres of curse something about summer concerts. Theres something magical in the air. Everyones happy and free, specially we ppl who live in the northern part of the world:P, who dont get to see the sun that much. And everyones jumping up and down screaming. I love that feeling when everyones there becus they love the artist. And going to summer concerts gives u so much positive ( sprudlande) energy, thats one reason why i went to bed with a smile on my face. And doing these sort of stuff is important. U should do as much stuff as possible that gives u positive energy, whether its going to the gym, or galleries or to bars to see ur friends or walks along the beach or whatever it is. Simply becus it makes u feel good and then u have more energy to do the normal stuff. And then kst by thinking of that memory makes u happy and then the spiral is on...

In a post that ive written before, im a huuuge fan of the photographer, the sartorialist. Hes my favorite, big time. the way he takes photos of people. The way it the photos look so natural yet still glamorous and elegant.the way they look so...kind. Not arsh at all like the fashion world normally is. Althou this is street photography, i guess thats very different from the fashion shows.
Im so jelous of all the fashionable people he gets to shoot ( pictures lf, not with a gun:P). And of all the beautiful cities he gets to go to and shoot all pf these beautiful and cool ppl. He always go to new york ( thats where hes from), milan, florence, paris, london, stockholm and sometimed copenhagen. I should feel honored since he, once in a while wågoes to my capital city haha. I would looove to work for him, imagine going to all of those beautiful and amazing cities, for work! And he probably gets access to all the big shows...i would be surprised if he didnt get access since hes so famous. Althou he doesnt shoot famous people, he shoots regular ppl. Thats what street photography is all about. But still...i would loooove to go milan and florence again and i wouldnt mind going to the other cities either...my dream would be going to new york def! Becus its so far away. London is a great city for cool ppl and paris is...paris but ive lived in paris so ging to paris isnt that exciting for. Id rather go to new york! Aaaaaaah... Im just gonna keep on dreaming.

Right now my city has the big summer festivalen, malmö festivalen. Its for one week which is quite long. Before i didnt like the festival becus i found it too noisy but its getting better. Well its still noisy, i guess thats the thing about festivals... But there are usually quitemany artists that are really good that come to the festival. Most of the artists are swedish ones of course but they do invite some international stars " stars" as in new for the year. This year it was ed sheeran, the english guy ( or if he comes from scotland or irland i dont know, but hes from the uk, thats for sure!) , who sigs " the A team" i like that song alot! I downloaded his album also, thats a gppd album! I like it alot. Tonite they have a big artist ( from Lund, a town close to malmö) having his concert here, Timbuktu. Hes a hip hap rapper so to speak. Hes good! In swedish i would say, han e jäkligt skön. His attitude is just so nice and open. And whats cute about him, besides that hes from Skåne ( my region) is thats hes kinda short. And when i say short, i dont mean just a bit small, but hes actually SMALL. Hes from, well actually i dont know where hes from, somewhere in middle east or iran or something like that, but i thibk hes born and raised in Lund. Ad he has the coolest accent. Well its not so different from mine i guess, but for the other swedish ppl who are not from Skåne, i think (and i mean think, im not sure) they really like his accent becus its so different from theirs.

Anyway, festivals are not really my thing becus i prefer having a lot of space around me and thats not the case with festivals and its dirty and stuff but from a social point of view its great! Becus it allows us cold swedish ppl (:P) to , well, to be more social that we normally are. We usually dont meet people for a beer that much, sounds boring i know, but we have other ways of socialising. But when we have festivals we are more social, we go to different kind of tents were they serve food and play different kind of music, in some tents they play jazz or blues or i dont know, all kinds of music. And they have activities, like bike riding and lots of different stuff. Its just a great way to socialise. So for a week week we get to feel alive and feel as if we were like the rest of the europeans..
