F 24 ONE SIX THREE ONLY
I was 24, I was on my own, I wanted to see the pink city.
A drive to the essence of Sweden
I was driving through Malmö the other day, and decided to make my way to the essence of Sweden.
Unplanned soundtrack as heard from CD player:
Lykke Li – Dance Dance Dance
Little Dragon – Shuffle a dream
M83 – Year one, one UFO
My mother listens to the CD’s I burn for her for years. :)
Made in Yugoslavia
Yesterday I made sure to catch up with some people I really wanted to meet before taking off again in a couple of days.
I ran errands, drove around, had lunch and went shopping with Becky, who originally is half Bosnian and half Croatian. Later I hung out with a friend who originally is Serbian and we watched some clips from the Swedish movie “Made in Yugoslavia” about the life of Yugoslavian immigrants to Sweden in the early 90’s – a nice conclusion to my Balkan day.
Today I will be taking care of computer-bound errands, such as signing up for the Emirates award program, updating my CV, backing up data and connecting my NAS to the network again.

Please define yourself
First of all, a big kudos to this online visa application system.
We have been out shopping all day, my mother and I, and it has been a rather interesting experience.
“Wait wait, are you sure these shoes will go with my new backpack?”
I’m taking my mother on a real trip for the first time ever. Passion for fashion and perfect structure thrown into the most random, hot and humid of places. There will be quotes.
Black goes with everything. And works well on trains and dusty buses. I’m more into “whatever” mode on the fashion part – but super excited about this trip. If I get my visa on time, that is.
Hey with Mami
Going to pick up my new passport – we’re going for a little trip. :)
I’ve got Sunshine
One thing I certainly have got is yet another set of beautiful and random memories. Like this one, when Den was telling me the story about a funny self proclaimed magician in the New York Subway. It’s just a detail, but it demonstrates perfectly how easy it was to spend time with this fantastic girl – pure sunshine.
Good night!
Friday (a Saturday in Malmö)

Now or never
One thing I’ve learnt is that if I don’t unpack immediately when coming home, I kind of never do.
So now the big process has begun again; sorting and washing every single thing that accompanied me on this trip, trying to find a place for my new treasures – and rediscovering my old wardrobe, my room, and all the things I have forgotten that I own.
That, and seeing family and friends, of course. It’s Saturday and I’m not THAT tired, so see you later Malmö!
All done, honey!
I’ve had two hectic but wonderful last days in New York, spending time with the two funniest and sweetest of friends, running for important meetings, visiting a friend in the UN building, walking around, and taking care of all that was left to take care of before my take-off – back to where I will be able to drop off these 23+15kg bags and think about what will be coming up next.
Girls, thank you so much! You gave me a wonderful ending to these six months of both pleasant and unpleasant experiences. You welcomed me to your world, life and magnificent city as if I had always lived here – you made me feel at home – and very eager to come back!
I will miss you dearly!

So I just had really nice chicken with asparagus, mushrooms and white wine sauce here in the airport. As I was done, the beautiful waitress passed by, asking “are you done, honey?” – another thing I will certainly miss about NY is the excellent service – I have never tipped this much in my entire life.
