Stina Wollter, in honor of International Woman's Day

Stina Wollter, a Swedish Artist, Singer, Textwriter, Body Activist and Radio Personality is one of the women I want to honor this

International Woman's Day

I love to end my weekend listen to her 2hr Sunday night radio show. She shows so much love and respect to all the intresting people she´s bringing to the show.

I also follow her fun and thoughtful Instagram account.

This saturday I wen't to her artshow in Uppsala at Galleri 1. Amazing art, sculptures and photography, and to top it off, she was there herself. She held a long talk about her road to this exhibit, about her life, love, struggle, happiness and art. She touched the jam packed galleri and people smiled, laught and cried a little bit.

It was one of the best spent afternoons I have had lately!

So here are some of my photos from the exhibit, she told the stories about them in such a way I'm not able to tell:

Thank You Stina, and all other women on this day, and all other days!

Per!

My favorite photo of hers:

Stockholm-Uppsala winter wonderland

This week I worked in Stockholm for 3 days. Hectic and fun days with a lot of work during the days at the Jewellery company Engelbert Stockholm, specially to handing out jewellery for the Fashion celebrities at ELLE galan 2016.

I did not have much time to enjoy the exceptional winter weather, more thatn on the way to and from work. And here we go:

STOCKHOLM:

Nybroviken/Strandvägen

 Stockholm Ström

 The little house I'm staying at when in Stockholm is from the end of 1600's

The view from the house over Stockholms Ström and the Old Town, here with the cruise ship from Birka Cruises.

On sunday it was time to go home to Lövstabruk in Norduppland, but I took a long walk to the train station in the splendid weather:

Stockholms Ström, the island Skeppsholmen with the ship hostel "af Chapman"

 s/s Riddarholmen

 Facade of the Royal Palace

 The House of Knights

 Stockholms ström with the City Hall and Stockholm Waterfront hotel

UPPSALA:

Due to problem with a connecting train in Uppsala where I stranded there for 2 hours, but the weather was great there as well and I was properly dressed to wander along the Fyris River:

The Uppsala Museum are situated in a old mill along the river

On the way back to the train station did I pass by the newly re-built department store Åhléns with it's exhiting facade reminding of a 20's cruiseship

Next stop on the long way home was the little town of Tierp where the sun was going down at the train station

With that I will leave you for this time, now I will enjoy a couple of great winter days at home!

Hope You do the same, Per!

Colourful October promenade in Uppsala

The other day I decided to take a promenade in my region capitol Uppsala and enjoy the beautiful fall. The sun wasn't shining, but it was still colourful.

I walked along the Fyris River and the forests and parks around the castle.

Västgöta Student nation from 1666

Uppsala Cathedral inagurated year 1435

 One of the castle towers. The building of the castle started year 1549.

 All in all it was a nice walk and I enjoyed the fresh and crispy ait.

Hope You enjoyed the scenery as well, Per!
