As my boyfriend and my cousin reacted “Again?”. But now I’m serious this time. Alexandra, a good friend of mine and Icelandic, will probably… Read More 2012: a to do list
December. The darkest days of the year. Stormy weather, snow, mist … Leaving when it’s dark, getting back when it’s dark, entering a nice, cosy, warm living room while your boyfriend is cooking … The scent of his pumpkin soup filling the house. Huddling together in the couch with a nice cup of tea from… Read More December love
