MERRY X-MAS

Hjemme til jul, ingenting er vel bedre enn det? Det har vært utrolig deilig å la macbooken ligge i fred på sofaen min, mens jeg har kost meg med venner og familie de siste dagene. Juleaften var utrolig fin, med god mat og godt selskap. Jeg hadde på meg en herlig ombre maxi kjole fra Warehouse, som jeg også skal ha på meg på nyttårsaften. Jeg nyter det å være hjemme, men jeg savner og leligheten vår veldig, så jeg gleder meg til å komme tilbake for NYE neste uke! Jeg håper dere alle har noen fine juledager, hvor enn dere er i verden, og at dere får gjort mest mulig ut av den siste uken av 2014 xx

Home for Christmas, what could be better? It has been really good just letting my macbook stay untouched on my couch, while I enjoy the company of friends and family these past few days. Christmas Eve was so nice with my family, good food and good company. I wore a lovely ombre maxi dress from Warehouse, which I am also wearing for New Years Eve. I am enjoying home a lot, but I also miss our apartment, so I am really excited to get back for NYE next week! I hope you all enjoy these days, wherever you are in the world, and make the most out of the last week of 2014 xx

Christmas Dress from Warehouse

HOME

i have been tired and uninspired, in the need of some air. so i went home, and after two days, i found it. the spark that went missing, a breath of fresh air. i never imagined this small town could seem even smaller, but getting back from london it does. the popular places I used to think was   overly crowded, now feels so empty. with my mom and my nephew, the house hosts three generations, and my small family feels bigger than ever. seeing new life grow up, making me not the youngest in the family anymore, is more than i could ever ask for. the innocent smile and laugh of a beautiful little boy, takes all the stress away in a second. a few weeks back home is what i needed now. even though the concept home feels hazy at the moment. the home, that used to be my home, stopped being my home when i first moved, back in 2008. since then, i have had four new homes, in three different countries.

qatar feels like my home, because it is the place that made me realize who i am and what i am capable of. i will forever long back to the pools and palm trees. norway feels like my home, because it has always been my home, and the home of my whole family. my small west-coast home town, where i grew up, will forever be the place i go back home. but then again, london now feels more like my home than any other place. the city with my first ever own apartment, the city that so quickly captured my heart and soul. it will forever be the place i chose, for myself, to move to. right now, it feels like my restless body will never settle down with one home. i like the thought of having three homes, but most of all i like the idea of having one big home - the world itself. i hope i get the chance to travel more, explore more, and learn more about myself on the way.
