Göteborg












Visited Göteborg in Sweden for a few days. It felt a lot like Helsinki and I kept thinking I will to bump into friends all the time. Definitely worth visiting. There was a film festival and a lot of good events in the city this time of the year. Cool cafés, alleys, people, everything, also.

École








From the yard of the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux Arts de Paris, where I studies for a semester in 2010-2011. Old buildings, statues and fountains hide the ateliers and paint on walls. They have the most beautiful library and hall so if you ever walk near the Louvre take another look on the other side of the river.

Lavender forest





Here in France spring seems to be invading the places. Snow is far away from here. It has been raining for two days, maybe it will get more frosty, but I can feel the light coming more vivid. Here's the neighbour's lavender that I've been following with some lavender wands in my mind. This one doesn't seem to feel any winter. It reminds me of fur trees and pines of Finland. I can think this lavender has needles and feel more cozy. Waiting for the flowers and the scent.

New





Happy New Year to everyone. Finland was dark, a bit too dark to take a lot of photos, but I had some lucky days too. Like this one. Golden sun and fresh new snow. We went to see ice-swimmers and smoke saunas. I walked around this lake and after I remembered how the frost in my toes feels like and how snow sounds under my feet.
