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:

Winter in Funchals Jardim Muncipal, Madeira

A rainy day in the end of November did I visit the Island of Madeira and the capital Funchal.
As usual did I head for my favorite spot for coffee, the Jardim Municipal, also called Donna Amélia Garden.
It's only one block big in the middle of the city, a small, but still a magic oasis, well worth visiting.

Enjoy the garden in a winter dress:





















This garden is forever changing during the year, but always worth seeing, if not for a cup of coffee at the café.
Next up is photos from Funchal Market, see You then, Per!

Bardini Hillside Gardens in Florence!

Bardini Gardens, next to Medici's Boboli garden, can be seen with the same entrance ticket!
The gardens climbing up a hill with many terraces, and are famous for the extra ordinaire blooming seasons through out the year, except now, off course :( Just have to come back!

This is the seasons, just check it out: Roses, Dahlias, Peones, Wisteria, Hydrangea, Camelias, Azaleas, Irises and much much more!
You have to use Your imagination when looking on these photos, Enjoy!

Some flowers where there after all
The Gardens climbing up the hill, and nothing for people with walking difficulties
The view from the top of the gardens over Florence and the surrounding landscapes are amazing and there is a café where You can sit and just enjoy it all
Would not be a Italian garden if there wasn't scupltures, and this one there is also many modern ones
 Beatuiful Terracotta waiting for next season
Imagine this Wisteria & Hydrangea pergola in the spring, mmmmh

We are saying good bye to Bardini garden with a vista from the Garden Café.
Thank You for joining me, Per!
