Down by the water

Bright evenings, after long days in the sun, swimming in the ocean and eating fresh seafood.
Life is pretty good these days. I enjoy this year’s summer vacation with family and working in between. In a few days I am heading to meet some of my best friends for a little mini-vacay in another beautiful part of Norway, not too close from here., called Sandefjord When I finally start settling in, it’s kinda hard for me to move. Finally, I’m getting into a real vacay mood and even started reading a new book, Wich I feel like I never make time for!




Norwegian summers are not fully like the French Rivera, with glam, heels, and glitter. Even tho I like to dress up sometimes, In Norway, it is much more chill. Warm sweaters for he evenings and even jackets are a must. Denim shorts is another must for Scandinavian summers. And as its usually pretty windy, a lot of the times, I love to braid my hair. I have done that since I was a little girl every summer, as my family used to sail for a month straight. My mom figured it was easier for her just braiding me and my sister, so the hair didn’t get too messy every single day. My mom teached me how to braid cornrows on my sister from a young age, and I’m completely obsessed about braiding still. I really love that this trend comes back every other summer. Small details like braids, or plain off-white bra under a basic linen shirt, are little things that make the outfit pop a little more. Uggs or boots are also great options for windy summer nights.




Enjoy the rest of July month everyone. <3

Corona birthday & coming home

Hey everyone!



Coming home to Norway has been the best decision I could have made. It’s another world back home in Norway. I have never felt so grateful for having a Norwegian passport before. The way Norway has been handling this situation compared to the US is another level. Dealing with being sick and alone was challenging and scary, but I made it and now I am home and actually happier and more thankful than ever before. I tried to lower my expectations for my birthday this year, because of the situation.




However, I guess I will always be a bit childish with birthdays. My family and some friends knows me too well and surprised me with balloons and flowers. Obviously with a good amount of distance. My brother took me biking in our old neighborhood, pretty challenging and even more challenging on the way down as I insisted on doing the harder route, with part of me regretted later on.




Sports defiantly have that effect on me, that it makes me confident when I reach the goal. The goal for this specific bike ride was to reach the top of Wyllerløypa. My brother asked me multiple times if we should turn and go back or do an easier way, but we made it! I will probably be in pain for another week from now. Everyone who has been in Norway, and knows ‘‘Wyllerløypa’’, knows it’s pretty brutal. It was probably the best birthday gift I could have got this year.
Being stuck inside a small apartment in LA and then coming back to Norway and being able to get fresh air in the Norwegian landscape, almost feels like getting drunk for the very first time again!
High on life and endorphins are poppin’!




Even tho this was not a real birthday, I decided to dress up. I was not gonna let Corona ruin my birthday this year. I am wishing all my Taurus sisters and brothers a happy birthday and encourage everyone to live life as normal as possible, do not get too engaged with the negative news, and dress up, even when it’s just for yourself or a facetime/ zoom call.




I hope everyone had a good weekend, due to the circumstances and that you are able to make the best out of this situation. Stay creative, keep yourself busy and reach out to old friends by facetime, etc.
Stay safe and have a good week.

Stay home with Pretty little thing

How are you all holding on? I am staying busy with work from home and experimenting in the kitchen almost every day. Heading back to Norway very soon, and can’t wait! Feeling pretty isolated here in LA, and will be another life back in Norway where I will be able to use the nature every single day. Even tho the rules are pretty strict in Norway as well, the trails are still open, and people are allowed to go out for walks in the woods, as long as they keep the distance.
I’m trying to put on some makeup and something else then joggers every other day, but have to admit I’m mostly in my robe and slippers.


Stay safe everyone!
I can’t wait to share a project I am working on with you very soon.
