Thoughts on a tram...

Been thinking a lot lately, about life (oh man, this is gonna be deep) in general. Here I am, in Melbourne living the dream. Got the work-placement I wanted, the adventure I so desired for but still (!) it feels like something is missing. I thought, with Jose Gonzales streaming in my headphones, sitting on the tram and looking out the window, that life is like a stew (ok, I'm not crazy even you might think so at this point, please don't judge me just yet :D ). In a stew you put your best ingredients in and all of them is necessary to make the best stew. So, where will I take this. I have the best place and tools to make my stew; Melbourne is fantastic! Sunny and warm, best housemates, beautiful, cool animals, really good wine and so on. So what is missing is some of the very important ingredients, my friends and family! They are, unfortunately, on the other side of the world. I have some very nice tasty 'ingredients' in Melbourne, but I want all of them. Difficult...
Guess, my main reason with this post is that I actually should write a little bit more about what is happening here in Mel, and also what is going on in my head. A bit scary, must admit. Anyway, you should challenge yourself and that is what I'm doing just now, by posting this. Thoughts on a tram...

The Yarra Valley Winetour

Ok, so the day after the Tree Adventures we went to the Yarra Valley Wine-tour, amazing! Amazingly good wine and good company of course!  Here is a pic to show how excited we all were in the morning, hungover. So pepp... not.

Isabell & Christian!

Well, it wasn't the best idea to play cards and have 4 bottles of wine and Gin & Tonic the day before, but it all worked fine in the end, when we had tried aprox. 15-20 different kinds of wine. 

Beautiful Landscape!

Next post will be about the Melbourne ZOO, cool animals! Bye for now!

Tree Adventure!

Already end of January and I have been up to heaps of stuff! Isabell came back to Melbourne again, after being in Sydney, Gold Coast and Tasmania! Loved to have her back in the house... Almost like a small Swedish family as Christian had his holiday here as well, on the other side of the world. Happy times! We went to this tree adventure, which was awesome! So much fun, although my muscles were aching a lot the week (!) after. Didn't know those muscles even existed! Anyway here's some pics!

Me and Isabell!

Skateboard in the air, really hard actually. 

Some well deserved food. 

Isabell and Christian!

Christian :)

The day after we went on a winetour down to Yarra Valley, it was really nice. Not such a good idea to have 4 bottles of wine the day before though, but after the first glasses of wine on the tour it started to be enjoyable again :) More about that in next blogpost! 'Den som väntar på något gott...' Ciao!

Merry Christmas from Down Under!

Happy Christmas everyone! I know that the Swedish Christmas just began and every little one is still waiting for Santa while I only have ten minutes left. It's been a great day with sunshine, Swedish food (thanks IKEA) and Swedish people. Lots of Christmas Carols and some 'Sunes Julkalender'. Now it's time for bed tho, really sleepy. And Thanks a lot everyone for a good night and for making my first Christmas away from home a good one. Here's some pics.

So people, have a really nice Christmas! Good night from a sunny Oz!

Closer to 30 than 20...

It's my birthday! 25 is the age. Feel like 20 tho. Just remembered my 20th birthday when my family got up at 4 o'clock in the morning, drove all the way to Linköping (2.5h drive) just to have breakfast and champange with me in the morning :) So cute! But I do understand Australia is a bit far away so I forgive you for not having breakfast with me this morning, haha. Instead I had two other lovely Swedes singing happy birthday for me:

Isabell & Jonna ;)

Later I had a brilliant lunch with all the lovely girls from Ink & Spindle :) + Isabell

Got a card in the mail from my lovely friend Karin! Thank you darling!

I hope I see you tomorrow at the Christmas Bazaar!

Have to get everything ready for that now... 

Bye bye!

Thunder & Stingo

Thunder & Stingo have been very busy lately with starting up the brand and making screenprinted products. Well, promised some photos and here they are.

One fucking handsome pilot.

Who doesn't want him on a t-shirt.

Printing late in the studio, which is why I look like a mess... 

Finally some finished products! Tea towels!

Work work and work!

Stingo is productive and cute!

Temporary business cards is a must. 

Stingo is posing.

Yep, that's it for today folks... more photos will be on our website that is coming up soon. And so will the thunderandstingo.wordpress.com. Please be patient. 

But one irritating thing is that we were supposed to get our internet sorted out today, the guy came in the morning as schduled just to state that he couldn't do anything because it was raining... 

More photos from the market will be up after the weekend... hope our things will sell. 

Bye for now!

New website under construction

This is what I'm doing atm.

Which is why my blog hasn't been updated for a while... Well, not doing this on my own, get some help from the guys in the studio below us, Lettuce. Especially thanks to Joel, that is beeing patient to show me html and CSS. It is so much fun, I'm such a nerd.
The other thing is that we don't have any internet at the new house yet. 10 business days they said, counting from tomorrow. The house is awesome btw! Photos coming later.

Here's some pics from Halloween (Hällivin) :)

Me as a marionette puppet and some random guys.

Thought this was a really cool custome, a potplant :)

Smoking hot housemate, Heather!

And not to forget, the scariest of them all, Julia Guillard... aka Brad :)

Well, heading home it's 19.30 so been a long day with heaps of chocloate as it is Teegs birthday! Happy birthday Teegs!
