Orange

 Midnattsloppet was crazy fun, though the rain was pouring down and that I waited almost half an hour in the rain before I got to start. Somehow during my run, my mom got inspired, so she's going to join me next year!! So happy! I highly recommend you all to participate.

Inspire To Be

"Before you act, listen.
Before you react, think.
Before you spend, earn.
Before you criticize, wait.
Before you pray, forgive.
Before you quit, try."
                           -Ernest Hemmingway-

Some people talk and talk
And never say a thing.

Some people look at you
And birds begin to sing.

Some people laugh and laugh
And yet you want to cry.

Some people touch your hand
And music fills the sky.
                -Charlotte Zolotow-

"Expectation is the root of all heartache."
                    -William Shakespeare-

It's not the goodbye that hurts,
but the flashbacks that follow.

Every end is a new beginning.

Fruit Cocktail

 Best lychees ever!
 Fresh lotus seed heads
Fresh lotus seeds
Love coconut water.
 Guess what I was looking for...
 DURIAN!!! Also known as the "King of Fruits".
There were these kind of fruit stalls everywhere in Cambodia and Vietnam.
 Langsat, definitely one of my new favorite fruits. So tasty!
 Humongous avocado!
I don't know the name of this red currant like fruit. This little thing tasted so funny, in a good way though. It's like a shot of Sweet Soup (Tong Sui 糖水) explodes in your mouth.
One of my favorites, Coco de Mer (sea coconut).
Rambutan

...and mangoes, longans, pomelos, guavas, jackfruits, mangosteens, rose apples (chompoos), sugar apples, lamuts (sapodilla), dragon fruits, papayas, all kind of melons, pineapples... Everything was so tasty! But there was one fruit, salak (snake-fruit!!), that I didn't like at all! 

This is one of the things I miss the most from my Asia trip, all these fruits!

One Thought Fills Immensity


To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
                        -William Blake-

Finding the Blues


Today I went to the woods and picked blueberries. I was out there for almost three hours and got home with only 1L of berries. I really should do this more often. Nature helps one to forget about the stress.

Stockholm in My Heart





Stockholm has a special place in my heart. 

Dongxing, China

Waiting for our food.
 
 I just love all these fruit stalls in Asia.
 Food stalls.
 A meal for three, cost below 15 SEK!
Noodle Soup for lunch, only 8 SEK!
Home cooked dinner. That's luxury!
 Spending time with the kids.
Noodle Soup with Beef Chuck and Pig's Feet. So tasty!

I had a great three days' visit in Dongxing. Everyone was so nice to us and everything was so cheap! And the lychees, Oh My God, the lychees were so good! I ate so much that my tongue started to sore.
