Back to Reality..

Oooops there goes gravity!! Hope you all are well:) We're back from two wonderful weeks of sun and fun on the beautiful island of Crete! Still in a haze after coming home early this morning and sleeping in all weird and uncomfortable positions on the airplane. Also our flight were one hour delayed, in a very tiny airport full of unpatient tourists.

We had an amazing time, met lots of lovely people, made new friends and saw some old, enjoyed the sea and sun, travelled and discovered. But honestly it feels ok to be home again. I'm not sure if I'd survive an other week of partying, heavy greek restaurant food, raki greek moonshine, made of the vaste from the wine making that they serve at the end of every meal lol.

Like they say; The best part about traveling is coming home. It just feels so true right now.. Though I'm sure I'll miss it all in a couple of days;)

I'll be posting some photos from our trip, as soon as I've got them sorted! How's your summer so far?

Ps: Shocker; I even got a bit tanned in the end..

Sun & Fun!!

Me and my love will be leaving the cold north, for two weeks of wonderful sun and fun on Crete!! The next two weeks you'll find me relaxing on a sunbed in the shade, or touring the island with my man. We'll be staying at the exact same place where I spent 5 whole years living the greek life, with my greek ex!

Seems like a whole lifetime since and in many ways it is.. But I still remember the language, which usually comes in handy. I'm still pretty much in love with the island, but hate how it slowly gets destroyed by tourism.. I know it's a big part of their livelyhood, but I can't help feeling that they should keep some of the old charm! After all, part from Knossos and ancient cities, that's one of the reasons why people wanted to travel there in the first place..

We made a trip down there last year, but wasn't able to rent a car since my love was still waiting for his norwegian drivers license. Something we'll definitely be doing this year. I'm so looking forward to show him some more of the beautiful island and culture! I'm planning to take him a bit off the beaten tourist track and show him some of the authentic island life;)

The last couple of weeks has been quite rainy, on and off here in Oslo. Where at times it feels like someone has cut a rain cloud open, right over our heads. Poring all of the water out! Longing for some sand between my toes and beer on the beach, in the sunset!!
