I started this blog when I first went on an exchange to Brisbane, Australia. During that experience, I discovered my love for culture, travelling and adventures. This blog has followed me since and been my forum for pictures and stories from Tanzania, South Africa, Ireland, Fiji, Malaysia, Singapore, Europe etc.

Squirrel Portrait, Banff

Publicerad 2012-04-26 12:51:15 i Allmänt,



Photographer's description:

"My husband and I were exploring Lake Minnewanka in Banff National Park-Canada when we stopped for a timed picture of the two of us. We had our camera set up on some rocks and were getting ready to take the picture when this curious little ground squirrel appeared, became intriqued with the sound of the focusing camera and popped right into our shot! A once in a lifetime moment! We were laughing about this little guy for days!!"

Just got to love it!

7 OUT OF 21 DONE

Publicerad 2012-04-15 12:58:13 i Allmänt,

I am still alive. But I don't know for how much longer. Have just finished my 7th day out of 21 (fulltime) in a row. It requires a few coffees to manage to do that. My rats are behaving. But on the wrong days. They always manage to get pregnant so their 20th day of pregnancy (when we....how do I say this in a nice way....put them down to collect their fetuses) falls on a weekend. My success rate for E20 PM's on a weekend is greater than 80%. Weird. But it has to be done. If April would have had 31 days, my May weekends would have been a lot better than they are now as well. I guess I will have 1-3 days off before Sweden holidays in June.

Cooper and I cleaned the house when I got home. Most of what had to be cleaned away was his hair. But he didn't help much. Puppy attacked the vacuum cleaner frequently until I was done. Then he fell asleep in his froglet position outside my room. 
It is hard not to love anyone as cute as this <3

WATERHOLES

Publicerad 2012-04-09 12:43:09 i Allmänt,

Waterhole weekend. First out on Friday. Cedar creek in Mt Tambourine. Can one swim there?
YES one can! This has been on my to-do list for a while, finally got around to do it!

Cedar creek was wonderful. Def going back as often as I can to this little hidden paradise.

As a matter of fact. Couldn't get enough of waterholes so Ross and I made another trip today to Mt Barney. Not with the intention to find a waterhole but to do a long hike. However, I can't say I got very dissapointed when we ended up here:
Sort of had to dive into the very refreshing water once again. However, as we didn't plan for a swim, not appropriate enough for photos. Instead, I'll show you this very cool tree that was growing on the cliffs next to it:
Easter weekend is over. I am exhausted but feel like I really used my last 4 days off as good as I possibly could. Now it is work at least 14 days non stop (possibly 21 depending on rats behaviour). Looking back on those memories. I think I can managed.
Happy easter to everyone at home. I hope you painted as many eggs as I did!

CALOUNDRA

Had a relaxing day on Caloundra beach with Ross and a book yesterday. Last day of easter break today. We have a mountain to climb!

COOPER'S FIRST BEACH DAY

Publicerad 2012-04-07 12:18:57 i Allmänt,

Cooper's first beach trip went to Bribie Island red beach where dogs are allowed. He instantly loved the ocean, although he was a bit scared of the waves at first. 
Nice day. Can't describe how happy I am that Karen is covering for me this Easter weekend so that I can get some time off to relax and enjoy nature. Coming (at least) three weekends will be work work work!!
Took a 30min barefoot run on the beach. Basically no other people around as I reached the southern stretch of red beach. So nice!
Someone was pretty exhausted on the way back. Sleeping in the car all the way home!
Good times!

COOPER THE LAB PUP

Yep, there he is, my new love and awesome housemate. Already ate one of my indoor slippers, but just as I was about to get angry with him, he gave me the puppy eyes...<3
Isn't he adorable??
