My summer in squares
Posted on August 31, 2013
A couple (a lot) of photos from my summer in Norway! It’s been such a nice summer with so many exciting happenings! Right now I’m just enjoying my last days in Norway, packing, voting, spending time with my family and getting everything sorted before going back to Edinburgh. At this moment I’m currently in a fancy hotel in Bergen with Elisabeth to see Kaizers Orchestra for the very last time. It’s sad to know that this will be the last time I get to see them live, never thought a band could mean so much for me. My plan is to enjoy every second of this concert!
Not to long before I’m back in Edinburgh again as well, can’t wait to get settled in the new flat and get started with my new courses!
Lots and lots of blog post are queuing with tons of photos from my summer, so stay tuned!

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 got a few photos with her! She was really nice, and so cheerful. So happy to finally have seen her in real life!
Wandered around for a bit before ending up visiting Edinburgh Castle. One thing I love about this city is how there’s treasures everywhere! Beautiful churches on almost every corner, old buildings with the most amazing details, and so many historical places to visit. Also found out that Scotland’s national animal is a unicorn, which is just hilarious! Wish Norway had something more exciting than an elk…like…Spongebob Squarepants or something! That would have been so cool ~dream~.
Got a new phone now, Samsung galaxy SIII, so some of the photos were taken with the phone camera, since the lighting inside many of the buildings at the castle was rather dark, making it impossible for my Nikon lens to get enough light. Don’t think they turned out to bad either.
My days consist of staying at the library reading for my exams, going home late and then going to bed. All my flat mates are at home, so it’s soooo quiet here. Miss having someone to tell me to do the dishes, haha. It’s gonna be so nice to have them back at the end of the week, the flat feels so incomplete without them.
Oh! Also got my old Nikon D50 now, which my flat mate Ellie will be borrowing, so now I’ll get a photo buddy! Yay! Hopefully that will mean more photos and more activity on the blog.
