On that journey that you dream of
“…But…to sing, to dream, to smile, to walk, to be alone, be free, with a voice that stirs and an eye that still can see! To cock your hat to one side, when you please at a yes, a no, to fight, or- make poetry! To work without a thought…

En längtan
En längtan följer mig vart än jag går. Den säger: “kom till mig, för här du finner en kraft långt bortom allt som du förstår.” Så massivt och så fast som berget står, så flyktigt och så lätt som vattnet rinner, en längtan följer mig vart än jag går. Så…

Det mytologiska Prag
Åh vad jag trivs bra i Prag. Hela staden luktar pannkakor och mytologi. Det är nästan som om det fanns en legend om varenda gatsten. Här spankulerar jag runt tillsammans med mina skrivarklasskamrater. Vi har hälsat på Franz Kafka, Tycho Brahe och Antonín Dvořák, för att nämna några beundransvärda personer.…

Midnight sun and snowy peaks

Till Fjälls!
Off towards adventures! I have these mountains to investigate. Who knows what they look like underneath the snow? And under the midnight sun, nonetheless! Looking forward to a week of wilderness, and then another week of LARPing. Later, Reality! The mountains are calling And I must go Expect me when…

Winter adventure
So winter came at last, and with it a desire for communion with the frozen wilderness. So a hike was ventured, and in great company too. Through woods of naked trees, over hills and past streams and a lake. Even up onto an ancient volcano. All under a shining winter…

Ireland
Fuck you, 2015. I won’t even bother to recap this year. There has been happiness, but the year in its entirety was tainted by a deep sorrow. I’d rather be looking forwards now. 2016 got off to a good start at least. Being sick and tired of the Christmas and new…
