i´ve got film photos of reykjavík to share :)

a general tendency towards greater simplicity

something i read about in a book.

and there's been music

yes, luckily, lots of it. first at the réttir festival. for this one, me and my friend malin decided to volunteer. we worked one evening selling tickets and in exchange we got a bracelet for the entire festival, for free! here we are at sódóma, a concert venue, on the night we had to work. it was fun, although we almost freeze, we kept the coats on even though we were inside.

we got to see:



ólafur arnalds



pascal pignon



rökkurró



retro stefson and fm belfast



these last two were specially fun.

then it was time for the long awaited iceland airwaves. among many, many, we saw:



alaska in winter

and one of the highlights were kings of convenience playing at frikirkjan, a very nice church by the pond:



erlend, the preacher. and a balloon.



michachu and the shapes at this place called karamba, with elo and óttar.



hjaltalín



the tiny

once again we went to see the lovely ólafur arnalds, and also retro stefson and fm belfast playing together, but no pictures this time -just dance, dance, dance.



and of course, there’s always time for a fika in between. here we are at tíu dropar, one of the nicest fika places, with the best chai.

Llegó el día en que...

on october 24th, 2009 i finally got to see with my very own eyes the aurora borealis.

i called my mom from my mobile phone because i know she´d be happy.

i will never forget this moment.
