Update 2019-11-17: By accident really, I stumbled upon a photo of the Clay Cliffs of Omarama on South Island in New Zealand, while researching for my New Zealand trip. And as I do like my out-of-the-way places, this instantly intriged me. And although out of the way, it wasn't difficult to fit it into my itinerary, as it didn't require such a long detour to 'squeeze' in a visit to here. And the detour was so worth it! During this early morning, the sunlight is shining into the amphitheatre of the Clay Cliffs, lighting up its walls. Fog flaring around the rugged peaks; the walls of the cliffs shining up in hues of orange and golden. It is such a mesmerizing sight to see!

Update 2019-11-10:Strängnäs is a quiet little town in the beautiful lake area of the Mälaren, west of Stockholm. It's not really a tourist destination, but some parts of the city are nice to visit. The history of Strängnäs dates back to the Viking era. Strängnäs is actually one of Sweden's oldest towns and has played an important role as a church administrative centre in the middle Ages.

Update 2019-10-26: At White House, in the Vermilion Cliffs, Utah, USA, I was literally living in between the most amazing rock formations! Rocks flowing and curving in bands of colours ranging from pink, to yellow, to orange, to red. The flow of the colourful stripes over the huge rocks is so breathtaking and unreal. Weather, wind and water have shaped these rock to a smooth surface, in shapes and colours that are beyond belief, and impossible to describe with words. And as sometimes photos speak louder than words, I will in this blog mainly let the photos do the talking. Although I did manage to squeeze in some words ;-)

Update 2019-10-10:Museum of Ethnography, Stockholm. Although sometimes a bit chaotic in their displays, with not that many descriptions with each item, they have some wonderful objects in their exhibitions. This is especially the case if you like masks and statues like I do. On this page you will find a photo impression taken during some of my visits to the Etnografiska museum. It never bores me to go here though, as there is always something that captures my attention and fascination!

Update 2019-09-29: I write a lot about my travels, but I guess, never so much about the place where I live! So today I’ve changed that, with an impression in mainly photos, in and around Sundbyholm, my home. A visual story of my hometown throughout the seasons. There is not much to do here, and then again, there is in a way. There is the Sundbyholm Castle, and the famous Sigurdsristningen. The little harbour, and a beach on the lake side. And we have Europe’s northernmost beech forests, a place which I especially love during spring and autumn.

Update 2019-08-10: Some of my favourite memories of visiting National Parks are from Glacier National Park. And on this day we did the Hike to Grinnell Lake, Glacier NP, USA. A gorgeous short day hike with a 'bear surprise', a not-so-shy deer passing by, and wonderful views over turquoise-coloured waters of the glacial lakes.

Update 2019-08-04: It was breathtaking and very surrealistic to see this intricate full-sized sandcastle-like structure: the Ksar of Ait Ben Haddou, Morocco

Update 2019-07-27: Recollecting memories of my trip to the SouthWest of the US in 2010: to be specific, a visit to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Here is where a dream came true to see the sunrise over the Grand Canyon. And how lucky I was with the weather that day to be able to see the perfect sunrise. Magical!

Update 2019-07-25: I love the very north of Sweden. This is the mountain area called "Fjällen" and home to some of Swedens most amazing National Parks. This is our 8th trip to the Fjällen and this time we aimed for the very very north, right at the border with Norway, in a place called Katterjåkk, Sweden
