Dreams Precede Everything
Went out to find good spots for photo sessions, and this medieval fort ruin, called Ragnhildsholmen, was great. https://youtu.be/1syfMvqEklo Ragnhildsholmen belong to Norway around 1250's when it was built. Sweden won over the whole region in 1658 in The Roskilde Peace Treaty negotiations. This fort however, was only in use for about hundred years as its significance ...
Our first child was a summer is a summer solstice child, and our second will be a winter solstice child. One in the peak of the flourishing year and the second to be the reborn light at the darkest time of the year. This time however, one is familiar with the pregnancy and thankfully my ...
The last day of April was the first real good spring day and May has come out mostly sunny so far - not that warm, but sunny and the long Nordic days give you a sense of timelessness. https://youtu.be/rJTHDnL9bPU What's amazing is that the doll theatre, Pozorište Lutaka, from Mostar came to Sweden and Göteborg so we ...
After our travels and time all-three-together I'm now spending much more one-on-one quality time with Florens. Of course I've already been a sort of stay at home dad, while traveling and at home, being a digital nomad I could do it all. Besides the term stay at home parent doesn't imply being stuck in your ...
The last 6 months have been so amazing, yet there's so much more to come and be done. But for the nearest now, and the summer to come, we'll be in the north, in the twilight, the long summer nights and hopefully an even longer road trip to Norway this summer. Split was great, it's ...
In this post I'll show you the various vegetarian and vegan food alternatives you can find in Split. We stayed for three weeks all in all and went to eat at the places at various times, and we also made food in our little kitchen. So I'll show you products too and not only food bars ...
Every morning I take a walk with Florens and we get some fresh stuff back home for breakfast. The morning ocean air, the rays of sun and pleasant warmth together with the surrounding old, older and ancient buildings makes this routine into a stream of beautiful scenes that will get etched forever and caress my ...
A good indication you've been at the right place is that you feel like you're leaving when it's about to get much better. We had a fine winter and early springtime during our stay in Mostar. We also meet and hung out with some nice people. So this is the perfect farewell for this time around, at ...
The winter is gone already, and springtime is already here in Mostar. What else to call the time you already sit on the balcony and walk around in lighter jackets? We are rounding off our travels for this time, even though there's more than a month left there are practical stuff to begin with so ...
There are almost 60 000 tombstones (monoliths) like these in Bosnia & Herzegovina, called stećci. These ones in Radimlja are easy to visit, being just 3 km near Stolac. Otherwise many of them are located on high altitudes and in forests. Less than 10% actually have any inscriptions or reliefs at all and in Bosnia ...
A good time to visit the site of Daorson is in the spring and autumn, because the heat and the vegetation can limit your movement and put you at risk for snakes. The ancient megalithic ruins are located on top of the high hill in Ošanić where it is believed that settlements have existed ever since ...
2016 was full of road trips and adventures, plus many things accomplished for both of us. For 2017 one big thing will be for us to move to a bigger place, as the one room apartment has done for us what it could. We could travel a lot and have a cheap rent for all ...
I visited the former secret military aircraft base near Mostar in Gojnice. It's abandoned and for me the experience was that of an magnificent echo chamber. There are several objects like these in Bosnia, abandoned and remnants of the former Yugoslavian army. Enormously expensive as they were, all are abandoned - like the biggest one called Željava ...
Just shaering some scenes from our December days in Mostar. The weather has been really nice, like early spring, blue skies and sunshine. https://youtu.be/MXBuyR7_XEI https://youtu.be/Aqyo_7r5v50
Since we arrived in Mostar I've been busy getting practical things done. The weather has been really good, a late week in November was sunny with 20 C during the day, which we fully enjoyed. But even after that, the temperature is of a milder winter, the skies are beautiful and the sun shines often. ...
We landed in Zadar and checked into a fine room in the old town. We had planned to spend two nights in Zadar and two nights in Split before getting to Mostar. That would leave us with at least one full day in both of those beautiful Dalmatian old towns. As we left Sweden with ...
It’s soon time for us to leave Öland and head down to south Europe. https://youtu.be/N7jf72oOTPA The forest nymph is not that much of a spectacular person. Trollskogen. When I go grocery shopping everything and everyone goes into the cart. Autumn overload. This robot vacuum cleaner has indeed made out lives easier. Global fussball OK! Penalties: Father 5 Baby 0 The best football anthem ever made! By ...
