Trekking in Nepal - a traveler's guide
Hiring a porter, Stephen Bezruchka says in his book, is the best way to get a real insight into the Nepali culture, language and way of living. We'll see what happens along the way but hopefully being only two girls trekking we have a greater opportunity to get close to the Nepali way than a larger party would.

Hooked on knitting?
I don't often knit. I knitted a really long scarf this autumn but I haven't worn it much. A pitty, really. I'll make a mental note of wearing it more often! This animated clip here is very cute and I'm sure it'll appeal to those with a hobby knitting!
Great colours!

Nepal
I've been writing about saving up for a trip and I guess now it's about time revealing where to: Nepal! Tickets have been booked for Kathmandu in May, and I'm going with a Swedish friend of mine. We're so excited about the trip and have already started planning lots. We're quite lucky to have contacts who can hook us up with the right people in Nepal since we're going by ourselves. Saturday we met in a travel shop called Nomaden (a very good shop too) and bought maps and guide books. From what I've read so far I'm fascinated about the people and the places and not only by the majestic mountains. I'll keep you updated!

Transition into spring
Human Tetris
Very, very funny clip from a Japanese TV Show showing the Human Tetris Game. I watched a few clips from Japanese Game Shows last night and it's so different! Costumes, punishment and a lot about looking stupid in some way. Some of it is really funny, though. Like the clip above. It's fascinating to get an insight into such a different culture.

Swedish Comedian with the truth
UnderbaraClara posted this youtube video on her wonderful blog. It's in Swedish and about equality between the sexes and how we're raised. Magnus Betnèr has a very good point here!

Missy Higgins
Missy Higgins isn't very known here in Norway yet, but a good friend in Australia once sent me her first album "The sound of White". I'm sure we'll hear from her soon!
It's snowing!

A New Year Has Begun!
Is there a better way to end a year than by a couple of days of ski mountaineering?
Prince Charming and I went to Hemsedal, a famous ski resort in Norway on Saturday to visit a friend that lives there. Another friend of us was already there, so that made four of us for the weekend.
Unfortunately I've only got photos from the first of our two skiing days. The battery of my camera went dead. The sun was shining but it was quite windy on Sunday. Monday was Easter-like with the sun actually warming and no wind at all. A friend took some photos on that second trip, so I'll try and post one when I get them. All the photos here are from the windy Sunday.
Prince Charming in the wind at the summit. I was standing behind the cairn which is a big pile of stones common on summits. It is to mark the summit and in earlier times it was a way to see what summits had been ascended. I was out of the wind since the cairn was so big so I just look rediculous with the big goggles and my neck gaiter pulled up high.
