Colourful Camden


Had a great time with my daughter in London a few days ago.
We went to Camden and its market where we did some vintage shopping.

Other things we did:
see a Christmas decorated Covent Garden
drank mulled wine
had a Italian inspired lunch
strolling Regent and Oxford street
5 o'clock tea 
shopping
see Stomp
fancy dinner

LOVE LONDON MORE AND MORE!

Flying high

I feel literal that I am living in a suitcase these days.
I'm off to London...... and then Norway.
See you next week!


Classic(al) evening

Don't get me wrong, this is not something that happens to me often.
Actually I think it's the first time.
First time in Chateau de Bettembourg
 and first time at a concert with classical music.
Got a nice invitation to this concert with young and promising Norwegian musicians Miriam Helms Ă…lien, violin and Ole Chr. Haagenrund, piano, from the Norwegian General Consulate in Luxembourg.
So there I was, with my beloved and a friend, together with 300 other prominent (☺) guests, among them the Norwegian Ambassador in Benelux.

Can't believe.....


...... that this picture was taken 24th of October!
I was sitting in the sun in my garden, temp well above 20 and read 
a Norwegian Christmas magazine.
Well, autumn in Lux can be pleasant, but nowadays it is more like a proper autumn with heavy wind, rain and dancing leaves. 
Hope it wont last for long, 
I CAN'T STAND THIS KIND OF WEATHER!!!

A hidden riad

On our trip to Marrakech we stayed at a beautiful little riad called Riad Hidden placed in the middle of the Medina about 100m from the famous Djemaa el Fna square. With only 5 rooms it was a quiet place in the bustling old town.
With the most welcoming staff and a absolutely tasty breakfast this is a place I can recommend without a doubt.

For restaurants I can recommend:













Marrakech random

Honestly....
Marrakech is a place which you easily can have a love/hate relation to.
