oslo

location, location, location...
of the cities i know, only Vancouver has a similar kind of perfection when it comes to location.

even rainbows live in oslo:
...differing kinds of rainbows...
yes, pink hair and the famous blue rain coat...
but what is hardly visible on this picture is that the ribbon in her hair was a rainbow.


i actually used to think this city was the dullest place on earth.

but now! apart from perfect location, a flowering music scene and people starting to dress up as if they live in a big city, there's also a lot of interesting new galleries. like this fancy one where i was sent to check out how the street art is moving into the money world in this city too.
liked this guy (think it was Anders Gjennestad) a lot for his ever changing but extremely inventive choices of 'canvas' - old doors and other pieces that could have been ripped right out of the city itself or scavenged at any dump.
a last great thing about oslo for today (more will follow - lots more) is that you only have to transport yourself for a very short time in order to be in a place like this:
or this:
however, even out there, in what seems to be close to the wild, there are those Scandinavian rules....
