Proud to be here - represented by Alejandra and

"La Augustina":

"Galerías Maldà is most convenient for shopping, whether your interest is in designer and ready-to-wear shops like Adolfo Dominguez, Zara and Mango, or in the many antique shops, print shops, art galleries and curiosity shops.

Calle Portaferrissa is a favourite shopping street named for an iron gate in the Medieval city walls. Between this street and Plaza del Pi are over a hundred small shops in Galerias Malda, Barcelona's oldest shopping gallery. While built in the 1940's, incorporating part of a 17th century palace, the gallery reflects a turn-of-the-century Art Nouveau styling typical of old Barcelona. Here you will find shops dedicated to gloves, glassware, thimbles, handbags, rattan goods, baby clothes, lingerieand this is only one of three shopping galleries in this area. ". I will be in Barcelona next week and look very much forward to visit "La Augustina" and Alejandra. And go dragonhunting...

s o r r y m u m meets the people - Piri from Aitu, Cook Islands - the bread changed everything

Piri on Rarotonga. "You can only appreciate so many mountains and beautiful lakes, sunsets and turquoise lagoons - then you have to meet the people ", a friend once said. And he was right. When travelling over time, as I did a year, your surroundings start to not give any meaning. You stop seeing and appreciating nature. Nature fatigue . Very interesting phenomena that can even make you sad and depressed. Pointing out the reason helped. I knew I had to meet the people, so I changed my focus. On Rarotonga, an island in the Cook Islands, I met Piri. In 2002. First at his coconut-tree-climbing show where we als where taught how to make a fire with sticks and to cook with hot stones in the ground. We all had to work together and it gave meaning. It took us half a day to cook the meal. Piri making a fire. The stones were heated by the fire we made. Piri worked hard with dry moss and two sticks and we all gave shelter from the wind so he could nurture the fire. Piri work...

s o r r y m u m på 60-tallet - melkespann, komper og laksedød - hva gjorde mormor?

1963 En vakker sommerdag på 60-tallet. Ikke alle kvinner stod på barrikadene og ikke hele tiden. Skulle vel ikke slutte å være kvinne? Skulle det ikke bare være greit å strikke ? Greit å melke ? Greit å slumre i sola i fluktstolen? I hagen med bena i nesten nyklippet gress. Grave tærne ned i gresset og kjenne kjøligheten fra svart muld. Snu seg og titte rundt stolryggen for å se hvem som kjører lastebil forbi. Kanskje er det storebror? Støver litt fra grusveien som er sommertørr, men det gjør ikke noe for det er sikkert to timer til neste bil kjører forbi. Lure på når bonden Isak inne i garden skal komme og hente de tomme melkespannene . Kanskje onkel rir forbi på hesten som ingen forstod hvorfor han kjøpte, men kanskje han bare elsket hester, Onkel Kåre. Kanskje er det tidlig ettermiddag og knaskje har de hvite syrinene nettopp avblomstret. De skal melke snart, skal de ikke? Kanskje de har ekstra melkespann i fjøset . Kanskje de bytter de tomme med med fulle spann av varm ...
