A taste of summer

| | | | | | | | I guess global warming decided that 32* Celsius and a endless blue sky was something I deserved after my crazy revision time in Edinburgh, and served Norway with some amazing weather. I feel like a new person after my little trip home to Norway, where I’ve been fed, slept in my incredible soft bed and spent…

April summed up in small squares

I didn’t have time to take a lot of photos with my camera in April, since I spent almost every day at the library, but I did get a new phone and took a bunch of photos with that one! If you’d like to follow me on Instagram, click here or search for marie_viking!

London and Kaizers Orchestra

| | | | | | | | |   | | | | | These guys were amazing! The King’s Parade. | | | So long since last time! I have been incredibly busy with all my exams, and the last month’s been a non stop revision month where I’ve literally spent 14 hours at the library, and only been home to sleep and…

The King and All of His Men

| Passed 300 followers now! Hooray!

6 925 piercings and one unicorn later

| | | | | | | | | | | Look at the unicorns! Actually Scotland’s national animal, no joke. | | | As part of my “go out and take pictures once a week”-plan, this Saturday was spent walking around in Edinburgh in the sunny (but windy!) weather. Met a woman I’ve been hoping to meet since I moved here, Elaine Davidson, and…

Dublin, last bunch of photos

| | | | | | | | | | | | The last photos from our trip to Dublin! Even though it was freezing and not the best weather, it was still a really nice trip! I would probably recommend people that want to travel to Dublin to do so in the summer months, especially if you are like me and would like…

Confessions of a uni student

This is probably going to be one of the most personal posts on this blog. I need to put “pen to paper” and get this off my chest. Had a rather sad experience a couple of days ago when I was cleaning my room which made me realize that I have to make an extra effort not to lose myself and my interest completely in this…

St James Distillery, Edinburgh

| | | | | | || | | | It’s been forever since I posted anything here, and for that I’m sorry. There’s been too much to do, and too little time for me to finish it all!  Some thing had to be more of a priority than others, which leaves the blog to be one of the less important tasks since it’s…

St. James’s Gate Brewery (Guinness Brewery)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Guinness brewery was such a cool experience, even for someone like me who doesn’t even  like beer. Since the weather kept being rather cold and grey, a day in the brewery was just perfect! I would totally…

Dublin -Part I

| | | | | | | | ‘ | | | | First post with pictures from the trip to Dublin! We arrived so early on Friday morning that the first thing we did was to eat a full Irish breakfast (which tasted like cardboard), before going full tourist-mode for the rest of the day. Dublin was rather cold and gray, much like Edinburgh,…
