Moments from Punta del Este (Uruguay).

I have had the most amazing weekend in Punta del Este. A more scenic and not to mention fun place is hard to find.

Back from Brazil!

Yupp, been back a week today, but have been busy trying to get life started again here in the wonderful city of Buenos Aires. I missed it! We have started working at an orphanage, and next week school starts.

We are off to Brazil for two-three weeks, as long as the wind wants to carry us.

Todays tune: Randy Crawford - Street life

Favorite hangout: bar Isabel in Palermo.

I have never seen cooler interior in a club. The bathroom is mirrors in mirrors. Whoa!

Ring bling from last night. Parilla (Argentinean bbq) with friends.

Last week a group of strangers gathered at a woman named Katherine's house.

Its a long story behind this dinner, but Kathrine is a woman who is from Norway, but has lived 35 years in Buenos Aires, owning restaurants and her own brand name in food. I did not understand how big she was before I heard that whenever a norwegian politician or business man is in Argentina - they are always invited for dinner at her house. Kristine and I had the pleasure as well.

The house is designed by herself with a essence of norwegian minimalism.

Lazy Saturday in Tigre (Buenos Aires version of The Hamptons) on a bike. Best way to get over an hangover.

The game Argentina - Spain. What a view.

Housing in Palermo.

Todays tune: Tøyen - India Pindia

Cool stairway in a menswear store in Palermo. Spent our Saturday walking around the area we live and have come to the conclusion that we are living in paradise. No kidding.

Amore.

Todays tune: Elton John - Tiny Dancer

Note to self; buy these shoes when money. Vintage shopping.

Morning in Palermo.

Great to come into a routine. School starts every day at 9 and ends at 1. This way, we get to experience a bit of everyday life in Buenos Aires. Going to school, grocery shopping and laundry. It gets romantic when its all new.

So yeah, did a gig for OFW earlier this month. Here is one video. Damn I hate seeing myself on TV.

And, last but not least, got to borrow clothes from Nova and Steen og Strøm. What a dream it was to just pick clothes and get them! Here is my opening party outfit, a dream of a dress from Stine Goya.

Some thoughts sent back home; RAFF week 2010 is on, Bergen's design and fashion week. The creation is from Kristian Aadnevik, a critically acclaimed designer that is from Bergen, shown in the window at NOVA.

The sub (or Subte, as they call it here) is a cool characteristic of a big city. All kinds of different people watching each other, beggars or street musicians trying to make a buck, graffiti on the walls, the smell of gas and lights flashing because the bulb is fuzed. Sitting there you feel a sense of collectivism; we are different but still going the same way. Its nice.

Right before I left for Argentina, I had a new photo session with my pal Eilert. The top is from American Apparel, and the hipsters from BikBok.

Today I fell in love with Buenos Aires. In the Sunday marked in San Telmo.

The person who caught my eye, was him. I forgot to ask for his name, but he gave me so much emotions on this picture - its enough.

The new Alexa in plum is my newest purchase. Candy.

Saturday in Recoletta.

We were so intrigued by the park and parklife surrounding the cemetery (which was our primary goal for the day), that we just sat there in awe; watching people pass by and listening to kids drum at a outdoor drumschool.

I miss a decent park life in Norway, just sitting with your friends doing nothing. I got to thinking that we tend to rush all the time, but the moments we cherish the most is the ones where time stands still.

Morning i Buenos Aires. This is the view from our apartment in Palermo. 8th floor. Pretty sweet.

Decided to continue on this blog. So, a bit more travel and a bit less fashion.

On to the matter at hand: this is my beautiful travel buddy Kristine. The blond bombshell that she is Im going to be busy shooing boys away from her (only the not goodlooking ones that is).

So.. hello blog. Its been a while. Ive been busy. But tomorrow Im moving to Buenos Aires for three months. I cant wait! My summer has been spent in Oslo, working for Tiger of Sweden, snapping for Oslonights and working as an reporter for Oslo Fashion week. Apart from that Ive been partying and meeting new and exciting people.

But back to the subject, Ill start blogging from Buenos Aires. Dont know if Ill do it here, or make a new blog. Ill keep you posted.

Love
