STOCKHOLM IS ALREADY BLOOMING

I was thinking in when I said I can't wait to see this city blooming in spring three months ago, and I perfectly remember the feeling I had then: walking around all the white gardens and getting used to see ice everywhere, but enjoying all this nature anyway, and wondering how it was going to look like once the cold is gone.

These last weeks the city has been waking up little by little, I can really notice how the forest I see from my window is getting greener everyday, and I can also know which flowers are the newest ones. We can have picnic outside, and waking up at 7 a.m just to see Kungsträdgarden uncrowded is totally worth it. I also said the city must be breathtaking, and now I know that there's no other word to describe it.

SATURDAY LUNCH AT THE SWEDISH KITCHEN

I was preparing a strawberry salad for lunch while this song was playing in my room. I felt it was such a nice and calm moment, cutting feta cheese with my fingers, while the spring light was filling the Swedish kitchen and my bare feet were following the rhythm of the song.

LETTER FROM GALICIA #2

I was going up the staircase while thinking about her letter. I knew it was about to arrive, so the first thing I did when I opened the door was to look all around the entrance searching for it. And there it was, over the green chair: a narrow envelope with my name on it. I took it, I putted it inside the pocket of my coat and I runned downstairs to take my bike. I rode to the forest, where I found a wooden table, and I decided to sit there while the sun was setting, enjoying all the little pieces from Galicia, happy to see how our project is growing and how that thread of letters is getting us closer and closer.

This is a project that I'm doing together with Mònica Bedmar.

TEA & CAKE AT KATLEEN'S PLACE IN BERLIN

During that weekend in Germany, I had the pleasure of meeting Katleen and have fika at her apartment in Berlin. She lives in a really nice flat at Kreuzberg, with red wooden floors, high ceilings and big windows. We walked around the friday flea-market next to the river and afterwards she invited us to have tea and home made cake at her place. I absolutely loved her apartment, and she is such a positive and inspiring person... cannot wait to meet her again to celebrate midsommar in Sweden.

HONOLULU CAFÉ AT MICHELBERGER HOTEL, BERLIN

A couple of weeks ago I went to an inspirational trip to Berlin with my colleagues. I fell in love with the city (cannot believe I was about to move there!), I think is truly genuine and inspiring. It was a great weekend: nice weather, good food and excellent company. While walking around the East Side Gallery with Sara, we found this very nice café that my friend Marta recommended me some months ago. Loved the coincidence, so we stayed for a coffee... planning to be back soon to that creative city that left us, somehow, a feeling of freedom.
