Springtime in Gothenburg!

Today was such a beautiful day! Technicolor blur skies and that crystal clear air that tells you spring is right around the corner, so I went for a walk in the Linné neighbourhood where the flower stands are packed with tulips in all the colors of the rainbow :)

I know its cold but....

...damn it's beautiful too!

Northern Lights in Östersund

The bridge I have to cross to get to my friends in Norway

More Northern Lights in Kiruna

Värmdö close to Stockholm

Still afternoon in Ängelholm down south

On the Road

On the way to spend New Years Eve with my friend in Borås about an hour from Gothenburg I snapped these pictures to show a little bit of winter Sweden.

That light

Today I saw that winterlight for the first time since I arrived. It's a hazy, peachy light that I've never seen in LA and it makes the view almost look surreal.

View from my window right now

Autumn sun and evening moon

Unlike Los Angeles where the sun sets rapidly and leave the evening pitch black, in Sweden, the sun takes it's time, painting the sky orange, pink, purple and finally deep blue. When you see the sun set at the horizon, turn around, and watch the huge yellow moon rise on the other side.

See you next fall!

I'm so used to arrive in Sweden in the middle of the butt cold winter, so to be here and still be able to enjoy the sun warming my face and watching the leaves change from golden to crimson feels amazing!
