Beach.

Today my boyfriend and I were at the beach, the weather was wonderful and I had a little dip in the sea as well. Last time I swam in the ocean was nearly two years ago, so it felt really nice, especially with the waves.

Tomorrow night I'm leaving to go home to northern Norway - something I feel very sad about. I'll have to leave my boyfriend again, and go back to winter weather (after enjoying spring in Sweden and summer here in Israel). However, it will be very nice to see my dog again who I miss quite dearly.

Yellow flower crown.

Today I went for a walk in an area with lots of meadows of pretty flowers - perfect for making a flower crown to put on my head.

After walking a while we came across an amfi theatre in the middle of the woods.

Trip.

I've just come back from a two day trip to northern Israel with my boyfriend. It was so lovely, and the landscape absolutely breathtaking. We wandered around in the nature, visited several cities, stayed at a romantic hotel, and just had a great time together.

I thought I'd share some pictures with you!

a little lizard. I had never seen one with my own eyes ever, so it was quite special for me to see one!

in Israel.

Hello,

I've been with my boyfriend in Israel for two days now, and I am really having the best time. It's so lovely to be with him again, see his family again and enjoy the pretty summer-like weather.
Here are some pictures from today:

Fall asleep in the grass.

It's been so beautiful outside the last few days - sunny, blue skies and quite warm for this time of the year. The kind of weather, which especially in the spring, makes you instantly happy. I feel a bit sad to leave Sweden now when it's so lovely, but hopefully it will be as nice in Israel.

I also bough an extremely cute anchor bracelet from Quietland.

I also bought a really pretty necklace from there, and a sweet hair bow. I'll show you those later...
For now, all I wish I could do is fall asleep lying in soft grass.

The contents of my bag.

I thought I'd show you what I usually keep in the bag I mostly use (a small one that's very convenient for small errands and such).



Usually I also keep my camera in there, but, as some of you might know, it's been lost... However, today I got it back again - Hurrah!

Polka dotted underwear.

Yesterday I bought this really darling underwear set with polka dots on it from Tiger of Sweden. I thought it was just so delicate and charming with the dots and the bows and lace that I had to get it.

Taking photos using photobooth isn't very easy (at least not from that angle), sorry about that.

Also, thank you for the suggestions on what I could post about while I don't have a camera. Some of those ideas were really good, and I'll try to use them sometime later on. I don't think I'll have the time to post a lot this week since I'm quite busy correcting tests, preparing lessons and moving away from Helsingborg in southern Sweden where I've been for two months now. I'm going to Israel for a little holiday in five days (where I'll also be able to use my boyfriend's camera!) so I hope to post more then.

The painted veil.

The painted veil 01

The Painted Veil is probably one of my favourite films (my list of those is long!) mainly because the scenery and atmosphere in it is so spectacular.

It makes me long to go to the Chinese countryside and to wear beautiful dresses from the 1920s.

Naomi Watts plays Kitty, a young woman who didn't get married to her husband, Walter, played by Edward Norton, because she loved him, but because she wanted to get away from her family. She has an affair, and Walter finds out. Kitty doesn't want to be divorced for adultery so she stays with Walter. She is forced to come with him into a remote area of China where he is to fight cholera, and hates it there. Walter tries to make life miserable for Kitty, and they barely speak with each other, but slowly they begin to have feelings for each other again.

On another note, my camera has been sent in to be repaired - and was apparently sent back to me, but it seems to have gone missing with the post. So extremely frustrating. That's why I haven't been posting much lately, but also because I've been quite busy.
Therefore I want to ask you, do you have anything you want to see in this blog? Really, anything? A few ideas, wishes and suggestions would be good so that I have something to post about until I get my camera back!
