I’m keeping myself updated with news from back home in Sweden. There have been extreme amounts of snow in the country; several roofs have been crushed because of the weather. SvD, one of the major and respected Swedish newspapers, urges house owners to take care:
Ett problem är dock att många fastighetsägare reagerar för sent [...]

When the Frenchmen had left, I went for a photographic tour around the country. In four days I wanted to visit as many of the 26 cantons as possible, finally exploring Switzerland on my own. I’m a sunset junkie, just because the light during that “golden hour” just before and “blue hour” just after the [...]

Ok, the post title isn’t that fair, Li does actually live in Lausanne (which is in Switzerland). But she does speak French!
Anyway, last week I had my final exams for this exam period, and I had the sudden freedom of having a week-long holiday. As it turned out, some of my currently-studying-in-french-speaking-contries classmates from LiU [...]

And here the autumn semester ends. I’m sitting here in Zürich Airport, waiting for the flight to Arlanda.
Normally, access to WiFi hotspots like the one I am on right now costs money, but once again I realize how good it is to be a student at the ETH. Without having to pay anything I have [...]

This semester passed by at enormous speed and in just two days it’s time to fly back to Sweden for the holidays. I plan on meeting many friends and catch up with the latest news from Sweden.
Two of the people I’ll meet are Daniel and Marc, of whom I took this photo this summer. They [...]

Yesterday I sat in my study, working with photos and schoolwork when I got a telephone call. Robin gave me a heads up about a demonstration going on in downtown Zürich, he knows that I like new photography challenges. Without a hesitation I grabbed my camera gear and took the first tram towards the city. [...]

Felsenegg is a great place, and I’ll definitely return later for some more nice sunset photos. This next one was taken over the Lake of Zürich (Zürichsee) about 45 minutes after sunset. I just love the contrast between the still blue sky, the blue lake, the orange streetlights and the green fields.
