This past week I haven't been posting on instagram as much as previous weeks, but it has still been a great week. Days spent with family and friends. I came across a video on youtube this week that kind of stopped me in my tracks, because while it was aimed at americans going to Norway, talking about what Norway and norwegians are like, the video gave me a new perspective on my own country and fellow people. It said that while norwegian people might come across closed off or even rude, it is not because we are but simply because we value privacy and personal space, and I found that to be so true. We also value family and friends and spending time with those people, the people that we love, which I also find to be true, because I am very close with my family. Ever since I was little we have spent every summer together at our family summer house/cabin, and I've never really thought about that not being normal for everyone. So this week I've been more aware of the relationship I have with my family and it has been very nice. A lot of the time I think that I (as well as other people) have a tendency to forget about these things, because they've always been a constant in my life, and now that I've really thought about it, I am so grateful for my family.

Love, H

This past week has been filled with a lot of good moments, I got to go on a 2-day cruise with one of my best friends, which was awesome, mostly because I got to spend time with Nina, and also because I got to see a small part of a new city. And while I doubt I'll want to go on a cruise like that again (because I'd rather go to another country and stay for a while), I really had an amazing time, and made lost of really fun memories along the way. I also got to get together with three of my oldest and best friends to eat pizza and drink tea, because, for once, we were actually all together in our hometown at the same time. I got to celebrate my younger sisters 20th birthday, and it was great. Overall, this week has become one that I will cherish and look back on with a lot of joy. Which is all we could ever want, right? 

How was your week?

Love, H♥

This blog is going to change slightly, I want to start writing about all sorts of things, don't get me wrong, I still love books and I have an inkling that it will be the main focus of the blog, but I also want to write about other stuff, like everyday life, art, travel, and other stuff that I like. I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I'm going to. This post for example is a new thing where I want to share pictures from my week (taken from my instagram). I hope you like it, and would love to hear you opinion on the changes to the blog, and maybe even ideas for what to do next. Love, H ♥
