dreaming
a thousand miles
As you might know by now, my dream is to travel around the world someday. Therefore, I thought I could mention which countries that top my list. Here we go.
♥South Africa - one of the most beautiful countries in the world, from what i've heard. Fortunately, I am going there this winter. Lucky me ay.
♥India - One large country with a completely different culture and nature compared to Sweden. A country I'd enjoy exploring. I reckon there's a lot you can learn and absorb while in India.
♥South America - Chile, for instance. Incredible scenery.
♥Canada - Also, the nature. And the stillness.
♥Roadtrip through the states - The road. People. New places. States. Yes thank you. I lived in North Carolina once. I was young. Can't remember shit really. Though I remember one thing, me and mum sitting in a window eating bread. Yes, it is true. Detailed memory of importance that is.
♥Roadtrip through beloved Australia - I have seen parts of Australia already, and there's nothing negative about this country. (Well, except for the highly deadly creatures living there.) Adelaide is where we lived and where I've spent most of my time when in Australia. The Gold coast is another explored area in Oz. But I'd love to roadtrip along the western coast, from the south to the north, and then make my way to Ayers Rock, Uluru.
♥New Zealand - The country of impeccable nature and mother to the LOTR movies. No more to say.
♥Cuba - This preserved part of the world which I've heard most lovely things about, tops my list.
♥Scottland and Ireland - So close yet so far away. Deep. Nah but would love to embrace the abundance of green fields and sheep in either Scottland or Ireland. Or why not both?
♥Italy and Switzerland - Eat pasta and pizza in Italy, stroll around amongst the beautiful architecture and the medditerranean atmosphere. Also, see the mountains and stillness in Switzerland.
♥Africa and Madagascar - The most down to earth places in our world? Become inspired of the citizens and animals. These places certainly top my list.
♥Iceland - One of our Scandinavian countries, whose nature, with mountains and geysers, seems lovely.

breathing
I've had three major tests in less than one week, and now, I can finally breath. And it feels great. I am longing for this coming autumn-break. But first off, I am longing for a good nights' sleep. Lately, I have been easily woken up in the morning by the slightest noise I hear, which has shortened my beautysleep. Tomorrow however, I have a late start starting at 12:10. I will make the best out of this, and most likely have a good nights' sleep.
This is Cyprus. Yes, of course I miss it.
to have one’s attention completely so that person can’t think of anything else
After a rather long schoolday, I strolled my way to Ebba and helped her with some math. Oh, the Cambridge test is apparently really, really, difficult. If you didn't know already.
Apart from all this, I do miss Cyprus.
C Y P R U S 2013
Allting började på Landvetter. När vi checkat in, taggade som vi var, gick vi in i Loungen tack vare Victorias mamma som fixat VIP in. Vi åt god mat och drack gott i alla fall. Klockan 14:25 lyfte sedan planet mot Cypern!
Vi åkte flygplan dit, då vi inte kände för att cykla eller dylikt. Allting gick prima. Klockan ~19:30 var vi framme.
När vi kommit fram till Marlita Hotel, gick vi direkt till vårat älskade hotelrum. Rummet var uppdelat i två rum + toalett + balcony. Det var superfräscht och vi föll bladask för det.
Vi vaknade tidigt av värmen, men det kändes endå bra. Nu fick vi se hotellet och rummen i sitt ljusare tillstånd, vilket var nästan ännu finare.
Under dagarna gjorde vi mycket samtidigt som vi gjorde absolut ingenting, vilket var lite av det goa med resan. Bland annat gick vi strandpromenaden precis utanför hotellet.
Vi var även fullt aktiva i olika aktiviteter som underhållarna på hotellet höll i. Bland annat pingis, Darts, Volleyboll, Water Polo, vattengymnastik, Quiz, Kongo, Gangnam Style - dans och mycket mer. Och ja, det var sjukt kul.
Några kvällar åkte vi in till partytown Ayia Napa. Där var det verkligen p a r t y. Ungdomar överallt, människor som vill ta folk in till sina klubbar, hög musik, alkohol, dansdansdans. Vi var mestadels på den skandinaviska baren Grabbarna Grus. Musiken där var grym. "Ayia, Ayia, Ayia fuckin' Napa."
En mycket varm dag var vi ute på en båtutflykt. Vi badade i kristallklart vatten, såg spökstaden Famagusta på håll och såg även "Lovers Bridge". Jag och Julia (och ett fåtal andra modiga) vågade på att hoppa från 10 meter höga klippor. Det var...läskigt, speciellt med höjdskräcken. Men jag kände yolo. Ungefär så ja. Värt var det.
Jag och Julia paraglidade en dag. Det var en underbar känsla och vi såg till och med en Havsköldpadda där uppifrån. Så himlans söt.
Lite random bilder från resan. Vi hade en underbar vecka med myckel sol och bad, mat, dricka och fina vyer. Pratade med nytt trevligt folk och skrattade mycket. Ungefär 100 procent av människorna på hotellet var britter, ungefär. But you know, we didn't mind. They were kind to us.
Den här resan kommer jag aldrig glömma, thank you girls, and thank you Cyprus.
Departure - Landvetter 14:25
After happily weighing my suitcase (which weighed approximately 10 kg for those who cares), I am now waiting in my house, for soon we shall set off for new unexplored places in Cyprus.
